LE LEURRE DU SEUIL

altblog – Le leurre du seuil
“The devices developed by Justine Bourgerol are generally understood in a frontal way and require a fixed point of view, often monofocal. Yoel Pytowski, meanwhile, works on different architectural registers to create immersive environments, where the body is taken into account in its entirety and goes as far as dictating the course or circulation within space.” Text by Septembre Tiberghien

Crater-Miguel Fernandez De Castro-Lydia Ourahmane


Working across a variety of mediums including sculpture, installation, photography and video, artists Miguel Fernández de Castro and Lydia Ourahmane both generally address place and landscape, usually the sites of their respective origins; Fernández de Castro’s the Sonoran Desert in Northern Mexico and Ourahmane’s the regions surrounding Oran, Algeria. Some of these sites are visible here through the video in the main gallery and the photographs in the back gallery.

THE AESTHETICS OF CONTAMINATION

altblog – Anouk-Kruithof
La pratique d’Anouk Kruithof s’inscrit au croisement de la photographie, de la sculpture, de l’installation, du photomontage, des livres d’artistes, du texte, de la performance, de la vidéo et des interventions dans l’espace public. Son langage plastique et son utilisation peu orthodoxe des matériaux brouillent les contextes, produisant des associations déroutantes.

PRESS++ SERIES

Filed under: Art contemporain, Photographie | Tags: , , |

altblog-ThomasRuff
Images that have been published in American newspapers and magazines from the 1920s to 1970s are Thomas Ruff’s source material for his press++ series, images that in themselves have even more diverse archival origins; the police, NASA, press agencies and press departments of institutions, to name a few. From the 1930s onwards, most of the photographs were no longer sent by mail from the press agency to the newspapers but instead sent as a wire and were then printed out by the newspaper, therefore showing the structure of the wire transmission.

To produce these works, Ruff scans the front and back of each photograph and combines them digitally, taking into account the original image as well as crops, touch-ups, date stamps, scribbles and smudges. Each of these marks varies in line, colour, and implement used; a red stamp, an inky blue fingerprint, a biro squiggle. Ruff has commented how photo-editors at the newspapers had little respect for the photograph, significantly altering the look and meaning of the original with their retouching and comments. Despite how invisible the hand of the editor is typically made to seem, here they are placed front and centre.

Au sein de la pratique de Charlotte Moth, les réflexions héritées du conceptualisme et des travaux in situ nourrissent une forme joyeuse, poétique et atmosphérique à l’opposé de la rigidité de leur apparence initiale décrite par l’histoire de l’art. (© photo: Aurélien Mole)
