The exhibition offers an insight into the life and work of the artist, who died in Merano in 1983, and her collection, which is now in the Palais Mamming.

The student project, realised by the Faculty of Design and Art of the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano in collaboration with the Palais Mamming Museum, highlights aspects of Klaber Thusek's creative work and shows drawings, sculptures and fashion designs. It also provides an insight into the artist's private life. A surprising answer to the question: ‘Who is Gina Klaber Thusek?’ emerges.

Gina's diaries, in which she wrote about her life over decades, open up an initial perspective: they are not only a record, but also an artistic narrative in which reality and fantasy wrestle with each other. The photographs taken by friends and lovers - some of them under her direction - show even more clearly the inexhaustible creative will with which Klaber Thusek tried to realise not only her image as an artist, but also a woman's life beyond the usual boundaries in the interplay of conformity and transgression. Gina Klaber Thusek has not only left behind the story of a woman's life that still inspires today. She has turned her life itself into a ‘work’.
