About the exhibition Adriana Czernin. Fragment
Inspired by the tableau with the wooden ornaments of the minbar of the Ibn Tulun Mosque in Cairo from the year 1296, a masterpiece of the Mameluke era, the artist Adriana Czernin developed a work series that takes as its theme the different aspects of geometric construction. In doing so, she sees ornament as a metaphor for cultural, social, and personal entanglements. The expansive works in the MAK exhibition paraphrase the fragmentary nature of the parts from the minbar that have been in the collection of what is today the MAK since 1907.
