¶ after a while meeting an old friend again. she is a mate from secondary school working as a chef at the kriket club down the road. it was great drinking coffee with you, evelin.
yesterday: after modest culture gathering at slovene embassy with tinkywinky glasses we were soon off to our ;-) ica to catch a talk on art vs. net. one of the speakers was also our good-for-nothing rachel. it was so warm and cosy talking with her since she is all in the non-linear critical thinking. at the talk they have brought up the importance of the dialogue between institutions and network artists. for a sec! it crossed my mind: uff what a boring and old overheard theme. but slurp! no way. it is not the artis's mourning i hear but actually the same story as i am experiencing but just slightly on another level. yes majority of institutions is far on the other side of the mountain. and yes network and process artists dont have appropriate bouncing canvases. and yes to hear it directly from their tounges should make you think. yes again - institutions should be production and social spaces instead of spaces for untouchable stuff.
aha turner prize does not feature any network artists either. instead there are four dealing with objects and concepts. true, i do like concepts as it is also the tradition of turner prize, but they weren't detailed enough to seek for them among non-atelier artists. however, the work of catherine yass was ulala dizzingly daring. scary and vertigous. trrrrrrrrrrrrr. trnabouts ... and ahh i felt sick. it's edgy perception pirouette.
''for her film 'descent', a camera was lowered to the ground from a crane over a construction site at canary wharf, london, through thick fog. yass adds to the perspectival distortions by screening the film upside down. a related sequence of photographs in lightboxes shot from the top of the building site with a stills camera creates a giddying sense of freefall. buildings disintegrate into abstracted streaks of colour and light as the camera tilts downwards towards the ground. her new work, flight, shown here for the first time, was filmed from a remote controlled model helicopter flying around the roof of broadcasting house, london. by revolving the image, yass simultaneously captures our desire to fly and fear of falling.''
freefall does work.
