Projet Gutenberg January 14th – March 10th, 2012
with Jenny Åkerlund, Brian Fay, Marcel Gähler, Carlo Guaita, Ane Mette Hol, Nyeema Morgan and Frank Selby.
Projet Gutenberg presents the works of seven artists who evoke the same conclusion: from type to digital, from classical typography to offset technology, printing has evolved more in half a century than it has changed since the invention of printing. Multiplying differents approaches of drawing, the works play with codes of modern reproduction technologies, through processes of graphic translation as a return to the tradition of the manuscript. Some of them situate in the field of drawing a common reference : the space defined on the page, a calibrated surface containing texts or images. From a reflection on the medium of the work to the evocation of its relationship to time – through the X-ray and photography – the artists investigate the conditions of appearance and circulation of images.
