“A Horn in The Neck: Verfremdungseffekte May Occur Everywhere”
Exhibition Duration:
08/11/2019 – 29/11/2019
A Horn in The Neck is an effort to collectively negotiate individual practices. It was launched by a simple premise (as most of these things often are): Dürer’s Rhinoceros. German painter and printmaker Albrecht Dürer’s woodcut from 1515 is based on a written description and a brief sketch by another artist. Dürer placed a small twisted horn on the animal’s back and gave it scaly legs. This woodcut then became the basis for other artists’ representations of the rhinoceros. Claiming this speculative space between reality and representation both as a material and a framework, the artists worked with the fragmented perspectives, linear and fractal narratives, landscapes as sites of reproduction, hierarchies of seeing, and processes of naturalization.
