SUMMARY:DISPLAY OF THE CENTURIES. FREDERICK KIESLER AND CONTEMPORARY ART
DESCRIPTION:\nAPR 1, 2015 – JUL 27, 2015\nPresented by the Austrian Cultural Forum New York\nArtists: ONA B., Josef DABERNIG, Wolfgang GEYER, Michael HUEY, Richard JOCHUM, Karl-Heinz KLOPF, KRÜGER & PARDELLER, Hanns KUNITZBERGER, Christoph MEIER, Ute MÜLLER, Eva PETRIČ, Gregor SCHMOLL, Hani RASHID, Gerold TAGWERKER, Josef TRATTNER, Heimo ZOBERNIG\nCurated by Peter BOGNER\nThe group exhibition Display of the Centuries. Frederick Kiesler and Contemporary Art at the Austrian Cultural Forum New York is dedicated to the work and ideas of the Austrian American architect, designer, artist, and theoretician Frederick Kiesler, as 2015 marks the 50th anniversary of his death, his 125th birthday, and the 50th anniversary of the completion of his most famous work, the Shrine of the Book in Jerusalem.\nThe exhibition investigates how art is made and subsequently presented and tackles the highly topical question of how artists can develop presentation strategies to escape from the curators’ omnipotence in today’s commercialized art scene. Curator Peter Bogner assembles the works of 16 artists according to Frederick Kiesler’s genius and his uncanny understanding that the 21st century needs, more than ever, new modes of creating, seeing, comprehending, and discerning varied realities.\n16 contemporary artists examine strategies of representation and display, not only referencing the works of Frederick Kiesler, but also grappling with Raimund Abraham’s intricate design of the building that hosts this exhibition. They will investigate questions of art production and its subsequent presentation.\n\n \nImages:\n1: Frederick Kiesler Arrives in New York. Vintage print, 1926.
