Projection

A thematic media history exhibition on the medium of the projected image with slide series and light installations of pioneering works from the early 1970s to the present.
The exhibition "Projection" is devoted to one of the most fascinating themes of art since the 1960s. It uses paradigmatic works to develop a historical passageway up to the present.
On the one hand the concept of projection means "throwing an image" onto a wall, but on the other also the conception of a thought and a metaphor for imagination. Along with the "idea projectionis" - projection as metaphor - the exhibition seeks to develop the significance of its surrounding architecture as an installative element of its performance practice.

With works by Paul Chan (USA, *1973), Imi Knoebel (D, *1940), Peter Fischli (CH, *1952)/ David Weiss (CH, *1946 ), Ryan Gander (GB, *1976), Liam Gillick (GB, *1964), Dan Graham (USA, *1942 ), Cornelia Parker (GB, *1956), Beat Streuli (CH, *1957), Valie Export (A, *1940).

An exhibition from the Art Museum Lucerne, curated by Susanne Neubauer.
