There is something magical about these photographs; they
show faces as they have never before been seen. The 360-degree portraits
by the artist duo
Koschies deconstruct familiar occidental views.
They are not structured around a vanishing point, but instead take place
entirely in the planar dimension.
With their fascinating time-slit
camera recordings, the artists enter into new visual terrain - not on
the basis of digital manipulation, but through creatively making use of
the influence of time in the pictures themselves. Just as Impressionist
pictorial forms in their day came as a shock to the perception of
academically trained viewers of art, these portraits act as a
substantial challenge to the eyes of their late modern addressees, whose
eyes have been inundated with traditional photography.


  • Revolutionary 360-degree portraits as facial landscapes
  • Essential essays by the authors on the chronistic visual worlds of the Surfaces

Diesen Fotografien ist etwas Magisches
zu Eigen; sie zeigen Gesichter, wie sie nie gesehen wurden - technisch
hochgerüstet und archaisch zugleich. Die 360-Grad-Porträts des
Künstler-Duos Koschies dekonstruieren gewohnte abendländische Ansichten.
Sie organisieren sich auf keinen Fluchtpunkt hin, sondern ereignen sich
restlos in der Fläche. Mit ihren faszinierenden Schlitzkamera-Aufnahmen
betreten die Künstler neues visuelles Terrain. Nicht auf der Basis
digitaler Manipulationen, sondern durch den gestalterisch eingesetzten
Einfluss der Zeit bei der Aufnahme selbst. Wie seinerzeit die
impressionistischen Darstellungen für die Wahrnehmung der akademisch
geschulten Kunstbetrachter einen Schock bedeuteten, wirken diese
Bildnisse als massive Herausforderung für die vorwiegend durch
traditionelle Fotografie imprägnierten Augen der spätmodernen
Adressaten.


Gro formatiger Bildband mit Rundum-Porträts als
Gesichtslandschaften. Essays von Sigrid Weigel, Klaus Honnef, Christoph
Tannert zu den Bildwelten der Surfaces. Das Porträt betrachtet als eine radikale optische Expedition in die Perspektive der Zeit.
