Liliane Lijn (b. 1939 in New York) has been working at the intersection of visual art, poetry and science for over six decades. Her category-defying work takes its starting point in the late 1950s, in the context of kinetic art, and in experiments with light, energy and movement. These early works demonstrate the artist’s ongoing interest in innovative materials and technologies, as well as the latest scientific findings. In the 1980s, Lijn created multimedia sculptures in which she explored the human body and alternative conceptions of the feminine. Combining the cosmic with the personal and mythology with high-tech, these interactive works give a contemporary form to female archetypes. Arise Alive is the artist’s most comprehensive institutional solo presentation to date.
