Für alle, die es nicht geschafft haben: Das war die Ausstellung „Was in Wirklichkeit ist“ im @ifa.de in Stuttgart. Werke von Otto Dix im Dialog mit zeitgenössischer Kunst.
„Kaum einer hat die Schrecken des Ersten Weltkrieges so schonungslos und erschütternd in Bilder gebannt wie Otto Dix. Bilder, die in ihrer Dringlichkeit nahe an uns heranrücken und bis in die Gegenwart reichen.
Seit 1993 reiste sein Werkzyklus „Der Krieg“ in einer vom ifa – Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen organisierten Tourneeausstellung um die Welt. Die ifa-Galerie Stuttgart bringt ihn nun in Dialog mit zeitgenössischen Positionen aus der ifa-Kunstsammlung: Sechs Künstler:innen, die mit Video und Performance arbeiten, wählen für die Ausstellung „Was in Wirklichkeit ist“ Radierungen aus dem Zyklus und stellen ihnen eigene Werke gegenüber. Der Krieg ist zugleich Zeugnis und Mahnmal und geht unmittelbar aus Dix’ Erfahrungen als Soldat hervor. Die eingeladenen Künstler:innen erschließen neue Dimensionen seines Werkes und stellen Verbindungen zu Themen wie Trauma, kollektives Gedächtnis, Gewalt, Verdrängung, Körper, Landschaft, Ideologie und Absurdität her.
Otto Dix im Dialog mit Yvon Chabrowski, Sven Johne, Lisa Kohl, Georg Lutz, Raphael Sbrzesny und Maya Schweizer
Kuratiert von Bettina Korintenberg und Susanne Weiß“

Exhibition opening - Dis-placed II
Under the title DIS-PLACED, in two parts, the exhibition will bring together the work of a dozen international and Luxembourg artists around the notion of the ‘loss of home’. The concept of ‘home’ is often associated with architecture, a territory, an environment and a sense of security, comfort and familiarity. Yet every day, people or groups are forced to leave their ‘home’: their home, their habitual place of residence, their community and their country because of coercive or oppressive circumstances.

BLINDSPOT, Bihaç | Bosnian-Croatian Border
Lisa Kohl engages with the poetic notion of non-places and transitional spaces, such as no man’s lands and border zones, while focusing on human life and survival. Existential questions accompany her artistic research on a metaphorical level, revolving around themes of visibility and invisibility, presence and absence, location and placelessness.

Video-Soundinstallation THE GAME | Bihać | Bosnian-Croatian Border | 2022
The video THE GAME reports on life and survival of people with migration experiences through the aesthetics of gaming. Escape routes are shown on a smartphone from the perspective of a young Afghan man. The device is reminiscent of a VR game console. In the voiceover, the protagonist can be heard describing the different forms of espace and pushbacks that he personally experienced.

ACROSS, created during my residency stay at Künstlerhaus Bethanien, confronts us with brutalist window architecture and a view of a vast sky lined with dissolving clusters of clouds. Concrete and air - these two materials could not be more different and yet here they form a harmonious entity that calls to mind countless images, from Annunciations to window depictions in Romanticism and famous film scenes. They all have one thing in common: the window serves (in various ways) as a threshold between this world and the hereafter that not only separates the two but also establishes a contact between them.

Exhibition view of the show BLINDSPOT at the residency Künstlerhaus Bethanien, Berlin 2022. Photography series HALIDOM | Sculptural Video-Soundinstallation ACROSS.
@kuenstlerhaus.bethanien Thanks to the wonderful support of the team of KB! Subsidized by @kulturlx and Aide à la création et diffusion en photographie 2021 @cnalux
The series HALIDOM represents sainthood on an iconographic level - as a pictorial metaphor for life and death, presence and absence, limitation and expanse, height and abyss. Sculptural figures in barren areas and border zones become symbolic monuments and representatives of the unseen. The veil is synonymous with concealment, protection and camouflage. The relief and the folds of the cloth suggest notions of divinity, heroism and inviolability. This series confronts us with spaces of transition - an allegory for the longing for freedom and redemption.

PASSAGE // 32°32’04.7’’N
117°07’26.3’’W Photographic Series | Border Field State Park | US-Mexican Border 2019 | The series was created in 2019 at the military base Border Field State Park in the United States, located close to the Mexican border. The title indicates the exact geographic location where the photos were taken and signals the political explosiveness of the place. The closeups of tracks from military vehicles propose a testimonial visual experience and create a palpable tension. The series pays tribute to a collective suffering, but it also questions the role images play in the reporting of conflicts. In this series, the visible speaks of the invisible and absence reveals presence. The tracks evoke escape which remains preserved in the form of a trace. #border #militarybase #usmexicoborder #contemporaryphotography #photography #rencontresarles #lisakohl
