Fundamentalist Cubes
2018
Absalon, Bruce Nauman, Gregor Schneider
curator : Ory Dessau
The exhibition Fundamentalist Cubes focuses on the figure of the empty space in the work of Absalon, Bruce Nauman, and Gregor Schneider, where bare rooms, corridors, and other architectural settings undergo personification, becoming a body, a psychic structure. Rather than a symmetrical mirror, the personification of architectural settings in the work of the three artists turns empty spaces into an ambivalent reflection of a body, a mechanism of simultaneous assertion and negation, introducing presence in terms of absence, and vice versa.
