Deborah Schamoni und O-Town House freuen sich, gemeinsam die Ausstellung The exhibition formerly known as „Trace Image“ zu präsentieren. Ursprünglich war die Ausstellung als Erkundung künstlerischer Praktiken zwischen An- und Abwesenheit konzipiert, mit Werken, die Strategien der Kunstproduktion untersuchen, die den Begriff des Körpers (oder: der Figur) durch verschiedene Abstraktionsmittel erforschen oder verschleiern können. Im Gespräch mit den Künstler*innen von The exhibition formerly known as „Trace Image“ begann die Ausstellung dann ihre eigene Geschichte zu erzählen. Sowohl Deborah Schamoni als auch Scott Cameron Weaver betreiben ihre Ausstellungsräume von ihren Wohnorten aus. Diese sehr speziellen und intimen Umgebungen können noch unentdeckte Gespräche ermöglichen, und mit einer besonderen Art des Geschichtenerzählens neue Sprachen für altbewährte Binaritäten entdecken.
Together, Deborah Schamoni and O-Town House are pleased to present The exhibition formerly known as „trace image“. The show was initially conceived as an exploration of artistic practices located between presence and absence via works that probe strategies of art-making which exploit or obscure the notion of the body (or: figure) through various devices of abstraction. However, as the conversations with the artists of The exhibition formerly known as „trace image“ developed, the exhibition began to tell its own story. Both Deborah Schamoni and Scott Cameron Weaver operate their exhibition spaces from their homes. These very particular and intimate settings facilitate yet- undiscovered conversations and expose a new language for time-honored binaries with a unique kind of storytelling.
