Press release

Ingeborg Lüscher
2 - 28 February 
Musée Geo-Charles


Born 1936. Lives and works in Tegna, Switzerland.
Using forms as diverse as performance, installation and photography, the artist explores the points of encounter between matter and emotion.
Made in 2001 in the stadium at Winterthur, Fusion is her second video (the first, Fly Fly, was presented at the Venice Biennale in 1999). It features two Swiss football teams, the Zurich Grasshoppers and F.C. Saint Gall, specially kitted out for the occasion in grey and blue suits. The commentary, describing the actions of these “blue” and “grey” teams is interrupted now again by inset images and music (Mozart). The work thus sets up a parallel between the worlds of sport and business, as referenced by the suits.
