Play the Red Line

Kraupa-Tuskany Zeidler is pleased to present Klaudia Schifferle's first solo exhibition with the gallery in Berlin, as well as her representation. Schifferle’s exhibition title, Play The Red Line, nods to musical improvisation and operates as a visual metaphor that suggests tension, urgency, and rhythm. The red line is something to follow, cross, or push against. Her sculptures and paintings shift between immediacy and dislocation. Figures stretch or fragment, forms sag or stiffen—each work carrying a sense of lived instability. Schifferle navigates materials such as plaster bandages and repurposed everyday objects—bass guitars, office chairs, cat trees—with a serious intensity, subtly offset by incisive wit. There’s a clear push-pull in the works: vulnerability that doesn’t collapse, but leans into confrontation. Klaudia Schifferle (b. 1955 Zurich), a founding member of the avant-garde women's band Kleenex (later known as LiLiPUT) in 1977, is internationally recognized as a painter, sculptor, musician, songwriter, and author. Inspired by the feminist ethos of the 1970s post-punk, new wave, and indie scenes, she intuitively and uncompromisingly traverses diverse media, techniques, and stylistic approaches. Her (visual) language is expansive yet distinctly defined, focusing on expressing emotional states of being. Remaining attuned to the pulse of the times, she delves deeply into the human experience through her unique perspective.
