SEQUENCE
Organised by Kunstverein Bochum, curated by Reinhard Buskies.
Haus der Kortum-Gesellschaft e.V.,
Bergstrasse 68a,
44791 Bochum.
Entrance stadtpark - opposite Kunstmuseum Bochum.
Mit dem Videoprogramm SEQUENCE praesentiert der Kunstverein Bochum eine Folge von vier Videoarbeiten als Grossprojektion am Haus der Kortum-Gesellschaft. Formatfuellend in die bodentiefe Fensterfront des Gebaudes eingepasst, verbinden sich die bewegten Bilder mit der Architektur und setzen einen visuellen Akzent in der spezifischen urbanen Situation zwischen Stadtpark, Kunstmuseum und mehrgeschossiger Wohnbebauung. In Zeiten coronabedingter Einschraenkungen des kulturellen Lebens macht das Videokunstprojekt SEQUENCE aktuelle Kunst sichtbar und allgemein zugaenglich.
Die ausgewaehlten Videoarbeiten kreisen um Themen wie Ort und Ortlosigkeit, Individuum und Raum. Sie setzten sich mit den Mustern unserer Wahrnehmung auseinander und reflektieren ihren medialen Status als Bewegtbild. Die Arbeiten sind durchweg tonlos und gaenzlich auf die Dimension des Visuellen gerichtet. Mehr noch als ueber die filmische Erzaehlung definieren sie sich ueber die Wirkungskraft ihrer Bilder.

Frozen, elemental, suspended in time. Phases of matter changing. The unseen has a place. The invisible grows form. A document of vibrations. Charged places, stories, objects, images. A journey from the darkest depths of the earth to the brightest sun. Diurnal.

FROM THE MOUNTAIN
Curated by Catherine Bowe

Wexford,
Ireland

From the Mountain considers our relationship with the natural world and how it has changed radically over time. The title of the exhibition is taken from a video work by Michael John Whelan which explores our connection with the environment and questions our diverse roles as observer, protector and eventual consumer. Images of wolves and Irish wolfhounds are placed in the context of historically significant locations in Ireland and Germany, including the site where the last Irish wolf was killed in 1786. Nocturnal shots of rural landscapes interchange with close-up observations of wolves on an arid mountain landscape reserve, where traces of the bare concrete forms of a former cold war missile base can still be seen as it slowly assimilates into the environment. These stark archaeological reminders emerge as lasting visual testaments of the effects of war on the landscape. The work invites contemplation of the methodical extermination of Irish wolves, encouraging a wider reflection on topics such as the ecology, our consumption habits and species extinction.

CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS

All life on earth - humans, other animals, plants and even bacteria - carry out biological processes to a 24-hour pattern of activity that mirrors the length of the earth day. Such processes are said to be subject to certain rhythms as they oscillate at different points during the 24-hour cycle, always following the same pattern of activity. Circadian Rhythms presents the work of Irish and international artists who explore these invisible forces through reflections on time, the cadence of working life, sleeping patterns, as well as through the impact of modern technologies that disrupt the natural world.

Night-time, and the many questions it prompts, has haunted artists particularly since the late 19th century. Thanks to such ground-breaking discoveries as electrification and lighting, psychoanalysis and the advent of the space age the night has evolved, transforming us in turn: theories have consequently been completely reviewed changing our relationship to the night-tide.
