PETER WEIBEL: GRZINIC/SMID
Thursday 20October, 7pm
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1:1 program puts up for the audience
an encounter with the seminal work of several Romanian and international
artists. Being designed as a series of screening evenings, held
every month at the Centre for Visual Introspection, 1:1 highlights
referential artistic practices as regard to the way the relationship
between art, public sphere and the individual condition is negotiated.
At the same time, because of its particular structure, a presentation
in tandem of two artists, 1:1 sketches subjectively
a regional and international map of modern and contemporary art
where certain theoretical and visual components meet or, conversely,
split up, expanding the conventional understanding of the work
of these artists.
Peter Weibel (b. 1944, Ukraine)
is an artist, curator and theoretician. His work includes conceptual
art, performance, experimental film, video art and computer art.
The artist’s work is focused on a critical analysis of the
functionality of diverse electronic interactive media (film, audio
and video recordings) within the construction of reality. 1:1
