Echoing Exhibition Views

Więcej o książce

As exhibitions increasingly transition into the digital realm, the optical, technical, and cultural dimensions of viewing art and culture are transformed. This exploration delves into how this shift reflects a new understanding of subjectivity. The publication investigates the various medialities and intersubjective changes that arise from experiencing a physical exhibition in today’s context. By examining the digitized exhibition view, it offers artistic and theoretical reflections on post-digital culture and hyperreality, particularly concerning subjectivity. It questions the implications of exhibitions circulating as digital views and how this digital presence influences and alters the subjective experience of viewing physical exhibitions. Featuring works by artists such as João Enxuto & Erica Love, Calla Henkel & Max Pitegoff, and others, alongside texts by Melanie Bühler, Erika Landström, and Agnieszka Roguski, the publication brings together a diverse array of voices. It encourages a self-reflexive and critical approach to medium and format, framing the exhibition as a fluid and multifaceted experience. Through this lens, it addresses the transformative potential of exhibitions and their capacity to reshape perspectives in a post-digital landscape.
