About the workThe goat might look cute, but its hair consists of razor-sharp glass splinters. Life-sized and self-assured, it sits opposite us, but won’t let us touch it. The creature is taken from a work in the Kunstpalast’s collection: a landscape painting created by Alexander Keirincx and Cornelis van Poelenburg around 1630. Marta Klonowska first captured this small detail of the painting in pencil and then transferred it to metal and glass. The artist studied at the art academies in Warsaw and Düsseldorf and was a master student of A. R. Penck from 1995 to 1997.
