A richly illustrated catalogue, published on occasion of the exhibition ‘Cosima von Bonin: feelings’, 21 Mar – 9 Jun 2024, Schirn, Frankfurt, in which the artist juxtaposes recent works never shown in Germany before with familiar pieces.

Works on view at Schirn include sculptures, installations, performances, and a selection of her characteristic ‘Lappen.’

Cosima von Bonin creates transformations of the everyday, drawing on numerous references from pop culture, film, fashion, music and art.

In her installations, exhausted soft toys, soft fences, rockets and textile images or cartoon figures like Daffy Duck or Bambi populate the space.

For this catalogue, Katharina Dohm introduces the exhibition, Diedrich Diederichsen illuminates the toy with its various parameters, Clara Drechsler gets to the bottom of the figure of Daffy Duck and its connections to Cosima von Bonin.
