Franz West - Wo ist mein Achter?
Franz West war einer der bedeutendsten zeitgenössischen Künstler Österreichs.
Er ist letztes Jahr leider verstorben,
hat aber am Konzept dieser Ausstellung noch mitgewirkt.
Seine Werke zeichnen sich dadurch aus,
dass sie förmlich nach Interaktion “schreien”.
Es war ihm ein großes Anliegen,
dass die BetrachterInnen mit seinen Werken agieren
und dadurch zu einem Teil von ihnen werden.
In seinem Oeuvre sind viele Werke die so konzipiert sind,
dass die RezipientInnen sich aktiv beteiligen müssen.
Weil aber bei dieser Ausstellung viele der Werke Leihgaben sind,
fällt die Interaktion mit diesen leider weitgehend aus.
Es gibt aber dennoch einige, die man in die Hand nehmen darf
und ich muss zugeben,
dass es schon ein merkwürdiges Gefühl ist,
weil man ja eigentlich gewöhnt ist im Museum nichts anzugreifen.
Seine Werke sind oft ungegenständlich
und das macht die Betrachtung so spannend,
weil man so viel hineininterpretieren kann.
Der Betrachter ist so involviert und das
verleiht den Werken eine gewisse Lebendigkeit.
Besonders
gefallen haben mir seine PARRHESIA Skulpturen,
zwischen denen man
durchgehen konnte.
Toll war, dass sie von jeder Seite anders
aussahen
und man nicht sagen konnte was einen auf der anderen Seite
erwartet.
Er hat seine Werke immer wieder neu arrangiert,
wodurch sie eine gewisse Lebendigkeit bewahrt haben.
Ungewöhnlich ist,
dass er Gemälde von Kollegen in seinen Werken "verarbeitet" hat.
Das
ist eine ganz eigene Auffassung des “Readymade”
und ist ein weiterer Hinweis darauf,
dass sehr viel mehr in seinen Werken steckt,
als es auf den ersten Blick scheint.
Der Betrachter wird angeregt sich Gedanken zu machen
und wird so in den Kunstprozess involviert ohne wirklich aktiv zu werden.
Mir hat die Ausstellung sehr gut gefallen und ich würde sie jedem empfehlen,
der sich für zeitgenössische Kunst interessiert.
Donnerstag kostet der Eintritt ab 18:00 nur 5 Euro
und die Führung um 19:00 ist kostenlos!
(Die Ausstellung ist noch bis 26.05.2013 zu sehen)
Franz West - Where is my eight?
Franz West was one of the most important contemporary artists in Austria.
He sadly passed away last year,
but was involved in the concept of this exhibition.
Characteristic for his works is,
that they formally "scream" for interaction.It was important for him,
that the viewer is involved with his works and become a part of them.Many works in his oeuvre are so designed

Characteristic for his works is,
that they formally "scream" for interaction.It was important for him,
that the viewer is involved with his works and become a part of them.Many works in his oeuvre are so designed
that the recipients must be actively involved.
Many of the works in this exhibition are just loan,
and so an interaction is largely impossible.
But there are still some that you may take in your hand
and I must admit,that it is a strange feeling,
because usually it is not allowed to attack something in a museum.
His works are often non-representationaland this makes the viewing so excitingbecause you can interpret into it so much.The viewer is involved and thatgives the works a certain liveliness.
I really enjoyed his PARRHESIA sculpturesbetween which you could go through.It was great because they looked different from each sideand you could not tell what to expect on the other side.
He has repeatedly rearranged his works,and so they have retained a certain vitality.Unusually is that he has "processed" painting from colleagues in his works.This is a very unique view of the "readymade"and is a further indicationthat puts a lot more in his works,than it seems at a first glance.The viewer is encouraged to thinkand is thus involved in the art process even without being really active.
I liked the exhibition very much and I would recommend it to anyonewho is interested in contemporary art.Thursday from 18:00 Entrance costs only 5 eurosand the lead at 19:00 is free!(You can see the exhibition until 26.05.2013)
