Robert Montgomery: Echoes of Voices in the High Towers. mono.kultur

Posted in photography on November 13th, 2012



For lack of a better word, there is a profoundly magical moment in the works of Robert Montgomery: In the middle of the street, we might come across his words and realise that someone is speaking with us – through an anonymous poem between advertising billboards or as an unidentified page in a magazine, or a light installation illuminating the night. But while introducing poetry as sparkles of beauty into the public realm, presenting words as living part of our environment, Robert’s words and works have a tendency to linger in our memory for a long time as they slowly unfold. His poems are an archive of moments that poignantly capture the way it feels to live at this moment in time. They articulate, reprehend and simultaneously celebrate our shared experience of modern life. ‘Echoes of Voices in the High Towers’ is the first comprehensive publication of Robert Montgomery’s work. Referencing the scale of his public interventions, all images are presented in full colour in a momentous A2 format, folding out to A1.
The publication is divided into three separate booklets.

Every Morning Now: A selection of Robert Montgomery’s work between 2004 and 2012.
Echoes of Voices in the High Towers: A complete documentation of the eponymous project in Berlin, Summer 2012.
Alive in the Sunlight: Two conversations, in 2008 and 2012, with Robert Montgomery.

The booklets are delivered in a white cardboard envelope, with an additional postcard included.

Book Release and Artist Talk
Yvette Brackman: Systems and Scenarios

Wednesday November 14th, 5pm

Motto Charlottenborg
Nyhavn 2
Copenhagen

 

Program:
17.00 Welcome by Motto Charlottenborg
17.10 Artist Talk with Yvette Brackman
17.30 Presentation of the publication with editor Helene Lundbye Petersen and the graphic designers, Peter Folkmar and Lars Bjørnstad from Kontrapunkt

 

Systems and Scenarios is the first monograph about the Copenhagen based American artist, Yvette Brackman’s work. Her complex and evocative work takes many forms such as installations, sculptures, performances, videos and text. She explores themes such as the interaction between origin and memory; trauma as a result of displacement and alienation in the community; cultural survival and adaptability; design objects and their changing functions, and political systems and their consequences.

The book contains a series of interviews with Brackman, conducted over several months in the fall of 2011 by the independent curator and writer Helene Lundbye Petersen, and a comprehensive essay by Heike Munder, director of the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst in Zurich. Both of these contributions illustrate Brackman’s visual and conceptual approach in detail and examines how she weaves together a wide range of works and topics, from the artist’s own family roots in the Soviet Union, to the indigenous communities in Siberia and how their culture is influenced by global trade .

 

The book is published by JRP Ringier, 2012.

Book launch: ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ – A novel by David Evrard – MOTTO@WIELS ( 21/11/12 – 7pm )

Posted in Motto @ Wiels, music, performance on November 8th, 2012
With Anne Bossuroy, Jean-Daniel Bourgeois, Isabelle Copet, Jonathan Dewinter, Jenny Donnay, Lucie Ducenne, François Francescini, Jonas Locht, Xavier Mary, Gérard Meurant and Nicolas Verplaetse.
 « ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ is a novel that reads like a long acid trip in which places, epochs, characters and things, both imagined and real, all intermingle and where people wake up just to go and watch the sun rise.  The book seems to be constructed of visions.  It is pink, orange and purple and shimmering.  It contains smoke, mind-blowing geometric forms, dance, sex and rhythm.  There are uppercuts and swings.  Its chronology is elusive, and you almost need a map to guide you through it.  ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ is a novel written by David Evrard that conveys his joyful experience of exhibitions.  At the core of the story is a large exhibition, a crazy curator with copper teeth who, incidentally, doesn’t organise anything, and artists who talk, have fun, and who construct spaces and forms ».
