SEIZING THE IVORY TOWER#4: Werhahn Puschendorf
Julia Werhahn und Luisa Puschendorf develop a new installation that
deals with the ambivalence of public and private spaces. Both artists
have been concerned with this topic a for an extended period, and create
sensitively, fully composed scenarios, which show different ways in
which people arrange their lives, and how they attempt to adapt within
it. In their installation Room No. 3, the visitor encounters a
sort of futuristic lobby: flooded with light, the sculptures are
presented behind glass, and seem to enclose the conserved past and at
the same time also a promising future. The room is an exhibition space
and a waiting room at once. Whether the art or the viewer is at the
center of attention is a question left unanswered.
