Überall und nirgendwo - Kunst im Postkartenformat
In the organizer's words:
Postcards are being sent less and less frequently: a classic communication medium that is increasingly becoming a rarity - which makes their activation in contemporary art all the more exciting. Three artists show their conceptual approach to the standardized image format.
Daniela Comani (born 1965) presents 370 virtual city views in Planet Earth: 21st Century. What look like aerial photographs are actually renderings of satellite images reworked using the 3D map services Apple Maps Flyover and Google Earth Virtual Reality.
Mechtild Frisch (born 1943) perforates art postcards. What initially appears to be a devaluation actually has the exact opposite effect. The countless holes in different arrangements individualize the single copy and give it the aura of the original. The Van Gogh, which never was one, has become a genuine work of the artist.
Nadya Sayapina (born 1989) asked other emigrants from Belarus for photos of places that remind them of their lost homeland. The Postcard Nowhere series consists of translations of these photos in writing, which often repeat the sentence "I can take any road but the one home" in the respective national language.
