Owlet vision in blinding time – Part 1 – 14 09 23 — 30 10 23

Owlet vision in a blinding time
(14 09 23 – 30 10 23)


The garden in the exhibition Owlet vision in a blinding time occupies
two spatial categories: the physical space inhabited by the garden in the
courtyard, as well as the representational space shown in the artworks,
where the garden is often a motif for cultural pursuits that are not directly
or literally connected to gardening or garden-making.


Since the garden dawns and dies with every season, halfway between the
eternal and the immediate, Karen and I thought it’d be stimulating to
design the exhibition in stages, according to the seasons. In fall, the gardener
plants the bulbs that will bloom in spring. In our autumnal garden, among
the tulips, irises, daffodils, and bluebells, we are also sowing concepts, ideas,
intuitions, and desires, whose blossom will undeniably bear the promise
of fruits in spring.


The first part of the exhibition (14 09 23 – 30 10 23) brings together works
by Sarah Burger, Anne-Charlotte Finel, Vianney Fivel, Andreas Hochuli, Alec
