LLLLLL Verein für Kunst der Gegenwart, Wien / Österreich (venue)
The exhibition presents artists who participated in the activities of FLUCA - Austrian Cultural Pavilion – part of the program of Plovdiv 2019 - European Capital of Culture. The project corresponds with the development of the Tatttoo Series by Reinhold Zisser within viennacontemporary and with the participation of Notgalerie in Parallel – featuring Iv Toschain. SHAPE OF SCARS brings together works that conceptualize visible and invisible scars left on the surface of history, the social process, the invisible personal world or the highly visible urban environment.... Vasilena Gankovska treats the symbolism of architecture as an object that could be printed - like a tattoo on ? human skin. Another type of “skin” (leather) is represented by Iv Toschain in her work which monumentalizes the fate of the artist in the context of our political and social reality. Emil Kirov creates objects as a metaphor of the deep scars on our private world. The process of treating of the depression is presented as a beautiful object, which however has an ugly meaning for a sufferer with a mental disorder. Olivier Hölzl interprets the history of the scars at Napoleon Bonaparte's Chateau de Fontainebleau. Also in this work - a beautiful ornamentation is just the surface. Behind it are the hidden twists of the history.
