Summary

The performance FEED (2005) and the installation ZEE (2008), two works by Kurt Hentschläger (b. Linz, Austria; lives and works in Chicago), revolve around human perception and the yearning for sublime emotional experiences. Immersive and experimental, they combine the registers of audiovisual installation, media performance, and light architecture. Instilling a powerful sense of disorientation, they plunge the visitor into a world of light in which an almost complete absence of reference gives rise to surprising beauty. Hentschläger?s new installation SOL (2017) transplants the audience into a gorgeously inscrutable void. Alternating between sensory deprivation and sensory stimulation by light and sonic impulses, SOL celebrates the suspension of time and space, confronting the visitor with his or her own self in the overwhelming experience of an unfiltered here and now.00Exhibition: Halle am Berghain, Berlin, Germany (28.01. - 19.02.2017) / OK Center for Contemporary Art, Linz, Austria (21.10.2017 - 25.02.2018).
