On this film still, a young woman can be seen in front of a silvery glittering curtain, singing and holding a microphone in her hand. She is wearing a white, low-cut, sleeveless dress with feathers at the hem.

Emmanuelle Antille

Emmanuelle Antille seduces viewers with her suggestive video installations. Sammlung Goetz inaugurates its newly expanded exhibition space, BASE 103, by presenting two central works of the Swiss artist.

We almost feel that we are sleepwalking when Emmanuelle Antille leads us along paths to mythically charged places. These locations become arenas for exceptional human circumstances and borderline situations.
The viewer in the five-part video installation Radiant Spirits (2000) seems to assume the role of a voyeur. In this work, Antille is the guide who takes the viewer on a discovery tour of an old Grand Hotel. Lying comfortably on a chaise lounge wearing video eyeglasses, the viewer witnesses erotic and puzzling events.
The video installation Angels Camp – Into the Purple Circle (2003) features four freely hanging screens and a lightbox, and is an independent component of the work group Angels Camp. Based on a novel, the work depicts the life of a group of young people at a camp on a lake. The installation was first shown in its entirety in 2003 in the Swiss Pavilion in Venice.
With the opening of BASE 103, Ingvild Goetz sets new priorities in her media exhibition activities.

Upcoming

Sterling Ruby

| Sammlung Goetz /Schaufenster

The American artist Sterling Ruby, who lives and works in Los Angeles, is known for his multi-disciplinary body of work, which includes sculptures, ceramics, bronzes, collages, textiles, and expansive spray-painted canvases in which he intertwines a wide variety of autobiographical, art historical, and sociological sources. Through deconstruction and reconstruction, Ruby explores the idea of a non-hierarchical and borderless universe. The exhibition at the Sammlung Goetz /Schaufenster lends insight into his multifaceted artistic practice through a selection of works created between 2008 and 2016.

 

Jeff Wall

| Sammlung Goetz /Schaufenster

Canadian artist Jeff Wall is one of the most influential photographers of our time. In his elaborately staged pictorial compositions, he combines the narrative of cinema with painting. Wall became known for his large-format lightbox images, which are formally more reminiscent of the world of advertising than that of fine art. With this technique, he revolutionized the medium of photography, elevating it to the height of painting and sculpture. The exhibition at the Sammlung Goetz /Schaufenster presents a selection of his iconic lightbox images from the 1990s.
