Veronika Spierenburg is the recipient of the 2013 Manor Art Award, a distinction awarded biennially to support young art. A first institutional solo show serves to mark this occasion.

Based on her fascination with museum architecture, the artist is developing a multipiece multi-media installation for her exhibition in Aarau, which consists of photographs, a three-dimensional object as well as a video and audio piece. With a sure feeling for material and form she examines the architectural structures of the Kunsthaus Glarus, the Östergötlands Museums in Linkoping and the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in  Rotterdam. The works on view establish connections to the Aargauer Kunsthaus and reflect a zestful approach to a minimalist repertoire of forms. Through a subtle interaction of space, form, movement and sound they develop a dynamics of their own that is pervaded by a contemplative power.
