NEW EDITION
Sunah Choi
Camou
2020
Edition of 10
Portfolio with 7 handmade photograms (each 40,6 x 30,5 cm), framed in passepartout (70 x 50 cm) in linen box (72 x 52 cm)
Signed and numbered
The portfolio ‚Camou‘ by Sunah Choi contains seven individual photograms - multilayered "photographs without a camera". To make them, three to four transparent foils were painted with abstract structures, laid on top of each other on photographic paper, and then exposed. The results are light-collages in different shades of grey. The patterns are reminiscent of camouflage fabrics and were also inspired by them: The colors and contours of camouflage patterns differ regionally, according to the territory where they will be put to use.
Choi has assembled comprehensive archives of distinctive designs, thus continuing her ongoing investigation into the physical manifestations of cultural phenomena. ‚Camou‘ is characterized by the symbiosis of abstract design and imitation of nature, which the artist further pursues, in minimalist reduction and with analogous means, in her work.

"There are insertions in the wall, their shape resonating with that of the wall paintings,
but instead of sitting on the surface of the wall they are penetrant.
They stab the wall, they are very strong but also invisible."
(Sara Giannini, Like Mercury Drops)

Nasan Tur
City says...
2010
34 copies, signed
20 copies in portfolios (numbered 1/20 - 20/20). 10 copies as single sheets
6 etchings in various colors, 70 x 90 cm each
For the portfolio 'City says...' Tur has translated the graffiti from six cities into color etchings. In this free adaptation, each city is given a different form. The messages have been superimposed by the stylus and appear in the prints in mirror image. The densities and superimpositions are finally indecipherable, though the finely wrought strokes do not completely cover the surface, so that individual words, word fragments, or letters remain legible. Yet the statements stay hidden, lost in the web of lines as if in a Babylonian confusion of tongues.
In the etchings, the drawing process creates heterogeneous images in which the character of direct address, the sociopolitical relevance and the information contained in the individual messages disappears. Their full significance can no longer be perceived. This not only calls into question the impact of slogans in the prevailing official media discourse, when marginal groups and minorities hardly get a hearing; it also touches on how certain expressions are used, what meaning they have in different systems, and how this changes over time. The image becomes a metaphor for failed – or at least disrupted – communication.

Today 50 years ago Allan Kaprow carried out his renowned activity ‘A Sweet Wall’ near Potsdamer Platz in Berlin.
On November 11, 1970 Kaprow and a group of participants gathered on the west side of the Berlin Wall.
After completing a proxy wall of cement blocks held together by bread and jam, 'A Sweet Wall' was subsequently knocked down by the group.
A documentation of ‘A Sweet Wall’ as well as the activity ‘Testimonials’, which were both organized by Galerie René Block, can be found in the artist book ‘Sweet Wall/Testimonials’ from 1976 published by Edition Block.
