Born in Germany in 1915 King moved to Melbourne Australia in 1951. While living in Melbourne, King established one of Australia’s prominent Sculpture groups The Centre Five. Drawing from her interest in Abstract Expressionism King moved into using steel and aluminium in her practice. Over King’s 40 year career she moved towards creating iconic large scale pieces of public art, these notable commissions include: Forward Surge (1974) at the Victorian Art Centre, Sentinel (2000) on Melbourne’s Eastern Freeway and Rings of Saturn (2006) at the Heide Museum of Modern Art in Melbourne.
