Mit “Darkling Eclipse” eröffnen wir eine Gruppenausstellung kuratiert
von Meredith Carruthers und Susannah Wesley aus Montréal/Kanada, im
April und Mai 2008 Curators-in-Residence im weissen haus.

“Inspired by our experience in Vienna, the resulting exhibition,
“Darkling Eclipse”, explores the mutability of decoration and the
capricious power of ornament to both mask and transform. It reflects
the moment when surface matter, and the easy simple pleasure it
brings, is betrayed and overwhelmed by something much more unwieldy,
obscure, and even wild. Either unleashing uninhibited from behind an
anonymous façade, or being restrained and contained by its fabricated
structures - the decadent identity rides the line of
ornamentation.Uniting the work of Canadian and Vienna-based artists,
the exhibition “Darkling Eclipse” will create a haunting and
disquieting space where ornamentation and its darkling other are
exposed, transformed, and eclipsed.”

(Meredith Carruthers & Susannah Wesley)
