Samenvatting
From the "blurb" :
=
The 11th September 2001 has wrought great changes-above all it has drastically altered
our modes of perception. The representation in the media of terror acts and events of war
has reached a completely new dimension and transmuted into a full frontal assault on the
way we perceive and order things. We find ourselves confronted with a massive and ever
more rapid turn-over both of the events themselves and of their medial representation.
The attacks in New York, and especially the 2003 Iraq war, have given us the blueprint
for the conduct of war in the 21st century and its presentation in the media: a blueprint
in real-time.
"information und apocalypse" is an attempt to produce a counter-text based on transmitted
media images and to extend and enrich it with original pictorial works. Thus the exhibition
is equally informed by a deconstructivist approach and by the input of new creative work.
Television images of the events of 11th September and the last Iraq war are reorganized,
set in new contexts and supplemented with original photographic compositions.
Three main features characterize the transformed structure of visual discourse since the
11th September: real-time, the blurring visuals, and the cinematographic vision.
