About Unicorn

“Unicorn” is a sculpture created by Rebecca Horn in 1972, belonging to the Feminist Art movement. The artwork is a notable example within the genre of sculpture.

The artwork features a vertical structure composed of fabric elements, primarily in a neutral, off-white tone. Its form resembles a pointed, elongated horn, extending upwards from a conical base, with additional fabric strips cascading downwards. The design includes harness-like straps, suggesting that it might be worn or attached, symbolizing the mythical unicorn. The simplicity and subtlety of its form contrast with the potential symbolism and deeper meaning embedded within its construction, reflecting themes often explored within Feminist Art.
