ELISABETH HÖLZL – TWILIGHT
Curated by Sabine Gamper
In the first room of the gallery a light installation using the existing neon lights radically transforms the perception of space. The second room contains several light boxes showing various slide sequences. There is also a shelf containing copies of the artist’s diary for 2001, which visitors can use as a catalogue and as a diary. Two large prints show the archives of a photographic studio. Despite their apparently documentary character, there is a close relationship between the photographs and the other works shown – the light, the concept of archives, which is also reflected in the diary being a public and functional object as well as the artist’s personal archive of memories. The exhibition deals with the complex structure of reality, its perception, its duplication in our memories and its reflection in the photographs.
