• The decade of her breakthrough: In the 1990s, Grosse's works were shown in first solo museum exhibitions.
• Gagosian Gallery signed Grosse in 2017.
• The traces of the broad brush are clearly visible and testify to the creative process and give the work a sensual expressiveness and spatial presence.
• This year alone, the works of the artist are shown in large-scale solo exhibitions in the Albertina in Vienna and the Kunstmuseum Bern.
• In recent years, the internationally influential artist has also had shows at the HAM Helsinki Art Museum and the Hamburger Bahnhof, Museum for Contemporary Art, Berlin.

"Color is so important to me, because it has an instant resonance. [..] You react instinctively to it before you even realize it, like a voice in a concert or theater touches you before you understand the lyrics."
