| Introduction | I had already touched upon concept ‹window› in Strasbourg, but I left the idea for a while until it came back to me when I work out the Tribe, an installation that addresses the television as a window on the world, which is not only focussing on reality, but also on our imaginative and virtual world. In a different way I take up the same concept in Hoorn with installation Puzzled Windows. |
Transforming a neo-classical church into a house of memory, it strikes me that all the church windows are boarded up.No view on the world, no world coming in. The application of lace curtains enables me to open up the space while at the same time suggesting more intimacy. In Unter der Laterne the concept of a virtual window returns by way of video-registration, but now centring on the relations between real time and historical time. |
| Question | In the course of time many artists have been working with the concept «window» the painting as a window, a view on reality, and often within the frame of the painting a depiction of various standpoints. | Nowadays we can add a new perspective to this concept: the electronic window. Do new technologies add something that cannot be achieved by other means of expression? And if so, how does this influence our view on the world? |
