Beschreibung
From appropriation to copy, from loop to remake, from sample to quote – it is impossible to imagine current art production without the principle of reiteration. Working methods that use repetitive moments are omnipresent and deeply anchored in artistic processes. However, despite the sameness inscribed in it, reiteration contradictory – it is both a linking as well as a separating element of creative processes; it gives rise to boredom as well as ecstasy, it stays on the same spot but nevertheless goes forward.
The artists book „Re-“ and the eponymous exhibition in the Kunstraum Niederoesterreich get to the bottom of this phenomenon. The multi-faceted types of reiteration are here not just the essential starting point but are also made visible as an artistic process. Reiteration is the connecting element in the contributions to the publication, which is to be encountered in content, form and/or at the material level.
Some of the work collected in the book is based on existing works that the artists have translated into the book format and which have been rescaled for this. Another part of the book pages were specifically designed for the publication „Re-“ and feeds off the interests of the people involved. Other contributions, on the other hand, work exclusively within the formal aesthetic preconditions of the publication and are thereby dedicated to questions that are inherent in the project and in art.
