art-worte (words) - exhibition at Kro Art Gallery, Vienna, 2009
For the work shown in this exhibition the words find their way back into the piece of art – exploring the different use cases of the “words” collection and approaching the art language in a personal way:
articulation management as a means of incompetence compensation competence or base material for the creation of art, starting point for analysis and critical examination or absurd aggregation of art terms.
The exhibition “words” is based on the video “collective authorship”. For this video different people from the domain of art select a term from the “words” list and talk about it.
Every work in the exhibition is dedicated to one of these terms and entitled accordingly.
