Opening: Thursday, 4 September at 8 pm
Photon Gallery – Vienna (Absberggasse 27, 1100 Wien)
Group exhibition Ghosts of Dada brings together three artists and photographers from Central Europe who apply surrealist features in their art making.
As well as relating to events that took place 100 years ago, we can take this opportunity to also think about the impact of that time on later development in the arts, particularly in photography. The first movement which fundamentally transformed the nature of art was Dadaism. The ideas of its members later developed into Surrealism which, with all its complexity, became one of the main directions of art throughout the 20th century, leaving deep traces also on photography. We can count Stane Jagodič (SLO),Roberto Kusterle (ITA) and Ladislav Postupa (CZE) among the “non-classical” masters of photography of the second half of the 20th century.
Curator: Dejan Sluga
The exhibition is on view until 30 October 2014.
Gallery hours: Wednesday – Sunday from 12 to 6 pm!
