Katarina Fritsch was born on February 14, 1956 in Essen, Germany. She is known for her sculptures and installations that make you see familiar objects in an unfamiliar, almost jarring, type of light. Fritsch is concerned with the psychology and reactions of people whenever they come to see her art in a museum.--I really like Fritsch's work. I like how she mixes familiarity with discomfort. I actually had the opportunity to see her work "Kind mit Pudeln (Baby with Poodles)", which is the poodles surrounding a baby Jesus, when I visited the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art last summer. It was the most eye catching piece in the room.
