Floating Self: Rabih Mroué, Rosa Rendl, Amalia Ulman

Opening: Fr, 5 May 2017, 7 pm

This exhibition examines notions of subjectivity and selfhood as generated in various mediated forms today. Each of the three artists takes critical, often provocative positions regarding these notions. Rabih Mroué explores legacies of war and their impact upon the body, psyche, and imagination. Amalia Ulman develops online personalities through social media as an ongoing performance. Rosa Rendl stages images of selfhood with a knowing nod towards fashion photography and consumerism. This exhibition also merges with an outdoor summer film & video program entitled Sunset Cinema, commencing in July.

Rabih Mroué, born 1967 in Beirut, Libanon, lives and works in Beirut and Berlin.
Rosa Rendl, born 1983 in Baden, lives and works in Vienna.
Amalia Ulman, born 1989 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, lives and works in Los Angeles and Gijon.
