Parallelisms
|
ARTISTS: Eli Cortiñas, Ingo Mittelstaedt and Sam Smith
10 April – 03 May 2015 With the desire to draw out different threads between the multi-layered practices of these artists, insitu invited an additional curator to see how shifts of curatorial perspectives can produce different exhibitions and ideas while working with the same trio of artists. After the first part of the exhibition “To Be Continued…” curated by An Paenhuysen insitu present their perspectives on this trio. For the second part of “Framework 6: parallelisms”, the insitu team explores a common thread between the artists that can be compared with a shift of focus: showing the back rather than the front, illuminating absence, or turning a negative space into a positive. Within their practices, the artists take a high interest in the apparatus and processes of their respective mediums of film and photography. They look at what is often left out of the frame and the potential for the lens to distort and manipulate its captured subjects. Thinking within the mindset of a camera, with a twist of their artistic lens they shift focus away from what would typically be the ‘subject’. CURATORS:
