Ro Robertson in Marlow Moss: the substantial, the visible, the object

November 2025


Focusing on the work of British artist and sculptor Marlow Moss (1889–1958), the exhibition highlights the legacy of the queer Jewish pioneer of European abstract art, whose work has long been overlooked and marginalised. Known as the first British Constructivist, Moss is celebrated for her radical contributions to abstraction but remains little known in Germany.
For the exhibition, Ro Robertson, together with contemporary artists Florette Dijkstra, Tacita Dean, and Leonor Antunes, has been invited to engage with Moss’s practice. The presentation will include a new site-specific sculpture by Robertson.

Marlow Moss: the substantial, the visible, the object is on show at the George Kolbe Museum in Berlin from the 1 April until July 2026.
