INGE KING

b. 1929, lives in Warrandyte, Victoria.

Inge King was born in Berlin and travelled widely before she came to Australia in 1951. In her early sculpture King worked with a variety of materials, although the modern media of arc welding and industrial steel characterise most of her work after 1960. King’s geometric abstractions challenge the viewer to explore the formal relations of space in and around her work and to consider the figurative allusions made in her titles. When Inge King executes monumental projects, such as Surge Forward, she works with a team of engineers and welders to enlarge and install her Marquette’s.
