memory box.
October 13th - 24th, 2012
Palazzo Zenobio, Venice (Italy)
Opening: October 13th 2012, 18:00.
In a group exhibition titled Memory Box at Palazzo Zenobio in Venice I will be showing a dozen platinum prints and photogenic drawings from my shadows series.
It's about Memory - permanence and transitoriness are the two key concepts for my contribution: the platinum prints are possibly the most permanent printing technique, while the merely stabilized (not fixed) photogenic drawings are one of the most transitory ones, and they will invariably deteriorate (and finally vanish into paleness or into a black blob) while exposed to direct light during the exhibition… The photogenic drawings add some "colour" to the installation with their characteristic hues of yellow blue and purple (respectively stabilized in potassium iodide, potassium bromide and sodium chloride) - but they are short-lived… just like so many other things concerning memory…
If you are somewhere close by, please come and say hello!
