comunicato stampa

Raw material presents the works of Lohner/Carlson, Gerhard Richter, Pia Greschner and Tom Schurr, who all focus on the different aspects of modern-art-perception.

In their video works, Lohner/Carlson depict emblematic picture-themes, which underlie a subtle and uncontrolled pictorial movement. In doing so, the artists present a fixed-frame video picture only to release a brief moment of causal action. Their continous body of work covers a time span of over 15 years and some 200 films.

Pia Greschner chooses a different and yet somewhat related topic for her film "define violence". The young artist choreographs human interaction that seems to freeze within the moving sceene. The result of her 3 minute film is a tense moment of time that negates the correlation between moving image and narrative.

New York artist Tom Schurr, on the other hand, reverses in his photography the process of moving image and fixed frame. His Polaroid SX70 works of the 1980's and 1990's present a large-size patchwork of photographed television images. In doing so, the artist redelivers the film images back into their elementary components - like a painting fragmented into ist various colours and shades.

Gerhard Richter's two works "daphne" and "guildenstern" both explore the fundamentals of substance and image in a masterly fashion. Gerhard Richter photographically depicts the image of a colour palette questioning the source and substance of art, therefore placing the artefact literally up-side-down in search of content and meaning.
