Kate Newby anything, anything Museum Brandhorst Munich, Germany Until May 30, 2027 ![]() ![]() Kate Newby's site-specific work understands the transit zone in front of the Museum Brandhorst as a place of permanent change. Like a sculptural drawing in the landscape, her intervention anything, anything resists the monumental and the closed, and conceives of public space as a place of interwoven histories, times, and contradictions. Approximately 1,000 bricks are arranged in two lines, each over 80 meters long, in the green strip between the museum building and the sidewalk of Türkenstraße. Opened in the context of the exhibition Carrying the intervention can be experienced in the public space for twelve months, thus encompassing a full annual cycle. Before firing, Newby worked the bricks: she translated traces she observed in the urban environment into the clay through drawings, indentations, and patterns – sometimes incorporating shards of glass that are inextricably fused with the material. Like small pieces of landscape, they now collect rainwater, dirt, and objects carried by the wind – artifacts that document transience and the social fabric of the place. The intervention, created in 2024 for the Berlin monastery ruins, finds a new form in Munich. Approaching Walter De Maria's sculpture Large Red Sphere (2002/10) in the "Türkentor" (Turkish Gate), it resists the monumental and enclosed. Embedded in the ground along "Türkenstraße" (Turkish Street), the work evokes canal channels and alludes to the never-realized waterway project of the "Türkengraben" (Turkish Ditch), which gave the street its name. To learn more, please visit the Museum Brandhorst website. Kate Newby (b. 1979, Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand) creates site-responsive works that are inserted directly into exhibition spaces and surrounding areas. Newby creates handmade, crudely constructed sculptural interventions that simultaneously connect and contrast their environments. Drawing out both the physical and poetic qualities of materials (usually materials such as concrete, textiles, glass, and ceramics), her work explores whether situational context can be just as informative as materiality and content. Underpinning Newby’s process is a performative ethos: she investigates the way material interventions made in response to a site’s particular temporal, physical, and geographical conditions can be a means of transformation and intervention. Kate Newby received her Doctorate of Fine Art in 2015 from the Elam School of Fine Arts at the University of Auckland. Recent institutional exhibitions include Palais de Tokyo, Paris; Museum of New Zealand, Adam Art Gallery Te Pataka Toi, Wellington; Mori Art Museum, Tokyo; The Institut d’Art Contemporain, Villeurbanne; Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna; 21st Biennale of Sydney; Sculpture Center, New York; Blaffer Art Museum, Houston’ Sharjah Biennial, UAE. In 2012, she won the Walters Prize, New Zealand’s largest contemporary art prize, and in 2019 Newby was awarded a Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters & Sculptors Grant. Kate has undertaken residencies at The Chinati Foundation, Artpace, Fogo Island, and the International Studio & Curatorial Program ISCP. Newby currently lives and works in Wilson County, USA.
