展覧会について
Antonia Low’s installation A Room Recalls is located in the largest exhibition hall in the K21. Visitors entering the room on narrow gangplanks and scaffolding easily feel dizzy. The room’s borders dissolve in the sheets of mirror glass on the floor, while the joints between the mirror panes and the cracks in the glass from the construction of the scaffolding disturb the illusion of the mirrored room below. Scenes from the film The Picture of Dorian Gray (USA 1945) are projected onto the left window, creating the illusion of extended space broken by window frame and architecture, giving this installation the impression of a picture puzzle of beauty and mortality.
