"In Ornamental Confrontation, he (Wolfgang Wirth) focuses on the seemingly unimportant forms that accompany political stagings and lays open their core: their function as a blank space and projection surface, as a surrogate in a cunning theatrical game.“ (Nina Schedlmayer)
About
A detail from a press photo of a meeting between Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un forms the starting point for the works shown. By mirroring and rotating, a simple basic form is put together into multi-part ornamental works. A stage-like installation specially designed for the exhibition site is juxtaposed with the paintings.
