Guided tour through the exhibition "Urban Tomography"
with Markus Jeschaunig
- 27.08.2010, 02:00 PM - 03:00 PM
A cooperation with the Institute Art in Public Space, Werner Fenz.
The project Urban Tomography shows a digital portrait of the city of Graz, recorded through the method of a cross-section and displayed as a video installation in the Künstlerhaus Graz.
The concept intends to create a „space-time compression of an urban space at one single point“. Along a straight line across Graz, on every kilometer videos are simultaneously recorded within one day. This videos will be displayed on a collection of monitors at the central position of the line – the Künstlerhaus Graz. The line of 10 km corresponds to the actually East-West extension of the city. The axis is north located by the points Künstlerhaus and Dommausoleum („Stadtkrone (crown) of Graz“). A section of the public space is transferred by sound and image into the exhibition space. The confrontation of 'micro and macro' or rather 'milieu and large scale' results in an audiovisual simultaneously city portrait „at the same moment of time“.
