Einzelausstellung Cheng-Ta Yu. … rumor has it

– Galerie Zimmermann Kratochwill

rumor has it…, serving as the title of Yu Cheng-Ta’s first solo exhibition in Galerie Zimmermann Kratochwill and in Austria, represents a false perception of reality which we sometimes encounter while we are lost in translation. The selected works in the show create a narrative, which circulated as an unverified account of how to re-interpret a much private and playful imagination toward modern society.

Yu´s exhibition rumor has it… invites the attendants to be a part of his work as to feel free to remind on all common barriers, which are given in our daily lives. Not to boost them but to break down or to find new realities and identities for ourselves. Yu Cheng-Ta uses language, body and culture in his works to convey a message to recipients all over the world and uses therefor an absolute common and emergent media – video. Video is for him the only valid media. Due to the reason, that many of his works are based on wrong identities or false realities and even more on language, video transmites his artistic base as a stage director and story-teller.
