Reality and Documentation: An artist talk between Rosa Barba, Aernout Mik and Hito Steyerl

dia — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 15:59:14 +0000

Throughout the last years the role of documentarisms in contemporary art was frequently and widely discussed. At its centre, there was always the question of the capacities of documentarisms to represent reality, the question in how far those documentarisms necessarily deviate from reality. In an artist talk between Rosa Barba, Aernout Mik and Hito Steyerl those
documentarisms will be discussed as a means of artistic praxis. All three artists base their work on documentary forms and researches but at the same time their ways of dealing with those means differ largely.
