There are artists who can be easily categorized: They are representatives or pioneers of this or that art movement, their life’s work is like a consistent progression along the timeline of life. Liliane Lijn does not belong to this group. She is a woman who, before Corona, might have been described as a lateral thinker – someone who does the opposite of what the zeitgeist tells her to do. The Mumok is dedicated to her under the title Arise Alive now a personal that should reflect the exceptional breadth of her work.
