MELITTA MOSCHIK. Reality Shapes The title of the exhibithion alludes to the design principle of Melitta Moschik's œuvre, in which the artist takes up visual signs and codes of reality – which in today's mediatised world we use for both concrete and virtual communication – and transfers them to the context of art. Melitta Moschik takes equally into account scientific positions and everyday cultural phenomena, transforming them into objects and installations, in which the reduced formal vocabulary focuses on the essential information structures of their content. The exhibition is organised retrospectively and shows series of works from 1991 to 2011, which deal with awareness and representation of reality. The puristic works – computer-generated, rendered in industrial materials, machine-made and characterised by technological aesthetics – deal with scientific, socio-cultural and medial phenomena, and are situated in a field defined by art, new media and architecture. |
