Offen für die Pluralität sämtlicher Imaginations- und Wissensformen verbindet DIAPHANES MAGAZIN Neugier auf aktuelle Strömungen mit essayistischer Tiefenschärfe, die Macht der Fiktion mit nuancierter Urteilskraft, publizistische Unabhängigkeit mit Lust an Irritation und Kontroverse. Kunst und Denken, Kritik und Produktion gleichermaßen verpflichtet, will DIAPHANES gerade solche Positionen aufeinander beziehen, die angesichts konformer Sinnesregime neue Text- und Bildpraktiken entwickeln und entgegen einer zunehmend opak produzierten Realität dazu beitragen, die Mittel kritischer Durchdringung und ästhetischer Sensibilität zu erneuern. diaphanes.net 28 July – 24 August 2018 Each Line Is A Crime Archive Kabinett, Berlin With the support of Stiftung Kunstfonds and the Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia Opening: 28.07.2018, 7pm Book Presentation Towards (Im)Measurability of Art and Life: 28.07.2018, 8pm Performance by Robert Estermann: 11.08.2018, 6pm Each Line Is A Crime is curated by Miya Yoshida on the launch of her publication, Towards (Im)Measurability of Art and Life. The title of the exhibition is borrowed from the subtitle of the blog Robert’s Lines by Robert Estermann. archivekabinett.org Excerpt from the press release by Miya Yoshida of the exhibition “Each Line Is A Crime”, Archive Kabinett, Berlin, 29 July – 24 August 2018 ‘Spectacular Interferometry’ (2017) is a series of very large digital prints by Robert Estermann. Each print consists of two different sets of drawings; one is his recent abstract drawings of beaches, the other is the pseudo technical drawings of automobiles that he drew at the age of twelve when he was obsessed with the design and measurement of cars. In Spectacular Interferometry, the artist juxtaposes them into a single pictorial plane and plays with the idea of measurement in the “(non) scale of a modernist dream” to interfere with his pragmatic approach as child car designer. image: Spectacular Interferometry ongoing project Riding.Vision is an art installation in the form of a media production company and a daily updated online concept store. Contents from it find their way to physical art shows as cross-media environments or to other outlets, and vice versa. image: Riding.Vision New article and extended profile about my work at Swiss Institute for Art Research sikart.ch/kuenstlerInnen.aspx?id=10851807 Past Shows & Bio Works Texts Links & Books Contact
