Echoing Exhibition Views

When the exhibition enters the digital realm, as it is increasingly happening now when the display of art and culture can be enjoyed individually behind screens, then how does the exhibition view diffuse optically, technically, and culturally? And how does this transformation echo the new understanding of subjectivity?

Echoing Exhibition Views — Subjectivity in Post-Digital Times explores the different medialities and intersubjective shifts that follow the moment of seeing a physical exhibition today. It takes the digitized exhibition view as starting point for artistic and theoretic reflections on post-digital culture, hyperreality, and its relation to subjectivity.

With images from João Enxuto and Erica Love, Calla Henkel and Max Pitegoff, New Noveta/Yair Oelbaum, SANY, Hanna Stiegeler, Jasmin Werner, and Jonas Paul Wilisch, as well as texts by Melanie Bühler, Erika Landström, and Agnieszka Roguski, this publication gathers artists, curators, and writers who frame these questions through a variety of practices and media. The book and its manufacturing parameters play a significant role in this, as the reproduction in the book adds another level of transformation. To include this in our debate, we deviate from the production standard, instead of CMYK we print RGB (only with red, green, and blue). But of course the web color space cannot simply be transferred to print. This results in subtle color shifts that are irritating. It thus addresses a self-reflexive and critical approach on medium and format—understanding the exhibition as a fluid and diverse view.
