Jeremy ShawShaw, JeremyBased in Berlin and originally from Canada, Jeremy Shaw has pursued his artistic, audio and often immersive artistic work for more than fifteen years, following a period from 1996 to 2009 spent ... travelling throughout the world as a DJ with his Circlesquare project. It is obvious that those years are not unrelated to the very nature of his artistic work, where music and the sound dimension play an important role. Shaw's practice is located at the intersection of several contemporary issues creating a stir in the world of philosophy, anthropology, sociology and the sciences, particularly the cognitive sciences and neuroscience, and lastly, the latest technological progress such as bio-nanotechnologies. His work stands out as an artistic and audio attempt to render an account of these multiple developments in research while projecting them into a fictional field that flirts with science fiction and alternative cultures. At the entrance to the exhibition the public discovers kaleidoscopic photographs that use images of religious or festive trances subjected to a process of shattering and fragmentation. In addition to these photographs produced for the exhibition, a large installation was designed especially for Gallery 3, Phase Shifting Index. This sound and vision work seems to be the culmination and synthesis of Shaw's earlier installations and research, firstly by virtue of its ambition for an even more intense immersion of spectators. Entering a vast room with a long ramp that produces a claustrophobic feeling, visitors find themselves high up on terraces somewhat overlooking the space plunged in darkness where seven films are projected on seven suspended screens showing groups of dancers that seem to come from different eras performing ritual-type and cathartic movements until they synchronise in a moment of collective ecstasy in one and the same sound and image track.Vrsta gradiva - katalog ; neleposlovje za odrasleZaložništvo in izdelava - Paris : Centre Pompidou ; New York : Swiss Institute, 2020Jezik - francoski, angleškiISBN - 978-2-84426-866-2COBISS.SI-ID - 48107011
