on display, room 040 About the workA photograph like a poem. For her series "Window Views", Natalie Czech has reworked historical copies of the American magazine "The New Yorker". Their covers have always been illustrated, as opposed to being photographic. Czech cut out the window motifs on the front covers and painted over the pages behind them in such a way that poetry emerges – here a work by the queer American poet Tim Dlugos. The graduate of the Düsseldorf Art Academy transforms everyday objects, art and language into multi-layered photographs. The window, a popular motif in art since the fifteenth century, becomes a symbol for new ways of seeing and thinking.
