The work of Marianne Eigenheer (1945 Lucerne, Switzerland – 2018 Basel, Switzerland) examines ways in which personal experience can be explored through repeated meditation of the drawing process. The expressive nature of these gestures hint towards an intimate presence in the works, and embeds Eigenheer’s practice within a history of visual language that speaks about the body. Her work was included in Achille Bonito Oliva and Harald Szeemann’s seminal Venice Biennale exhibition Aperto ’80 (1980).
