Beschreibung der Ausstellung:
Time and Space: Drawing on the Earth showcases
photographs and televised documentation of the
monumental land art projects of Australian sculptor Andrew
Rogers. All together entitled the Rhythms of Life, this body
of work encompasses the largest contemporary land art
undertaking in the world, forming a chain of 47 massive
stone sculptures, or Geoglyphs, around the globe. The
project has involved over 6,700 people across seven
continents and 13 countries, as diverse as: Turkey, Israel,
Chile, Bolivia, Sri Lanka, Australia, Iceland, China, India,
Nepal, Slovakia, USA, Kenya, and Antarctica. Andrew Rogers
employs local cultural historical references, materials, and
building methods in constructing his Geoglyphs that are
made on a scale that can be seen from space. He also
intends them to endure in their environments for hundreds
of years. Rogers’ sculptural practice is ultimately durational,
from the length of time it takes to realise each project
(upwards of 20 years in some cases), to the time they will
leave their mark upon the surface of the earth, to the time
it takes to view and experience structures on this scale.
Using documentation of this vast global undertaking. Â Time
and Space: Drawing on the Earth interrogates what we
mean by time-based practice. As a platform for time-based
art, MOMENTUM is showcasing this body of work in order to
ask the question: What is time based art? How do we as an
institution, and arts professionals more broadly, define time-
based practice? Do we privilege the medium, or the viewer
and the durational experience of watching a work unfold
across time? Or does time-based practice encompass the
means and process of the
creation of an artwork?
