Rosemarie Trockel emerged in Cologne in the 1980s with machine-knitted works that brought domestic craft, industrial production and modernist painting into direct collision. Her broader practice includes ceramics, drawing, film, sculpture and collaborative installations, often questioning systems that assign cultural value according to gender or medium.
