Lounge and LUX are pleased to present the debut London solo shows of three video artists - Sebastian Buerkner, Laure Prouvost and Duncan Campbell - as part of The Unnamable.
With a nod to Samuel Beckett, the exhibition is loosely themed around the notion of gaps in language and experience: the primaeval stratum to everyday existence, the background hum of subjective states which never quite break through into the world of speech, commerce and common sense. This incohate stream of velleties and half-fleshed fantasies can be unspeakably trivial, or unutterably disturbing.
The video works presented in The Unnamable each, in their different ways, evoke these subliminal states. Sebastian Buerkner's work involves an ongoing attempt to develop visual dictionaries, a shadow language of images which are associated with particular sounds or words, but which gradually take on a life of their own.
Prouvost's Abstractions Quotidiennes are synaesthetic stories in which abject details examined in tactile close-up, give rise to elaborate and macabre fictions.
Duncan Campbell's Falls Burns Malone Fiddles examines a series of photographs from a Belfast community archive as the narrator questions not only his own position as observer but his very existence.
The Unnamable is the first collaboration between Lounge and LUX. The exhibition consists of three two-week shows, presenting works which have not been exhibited in London before in specially designed installations. There will be separate openings for each show and several contextual events.
Sebastian Buerkner 20-30 April (PV Wednesday 19 April 6-9)
Laure Prouvost 4-14 May (PV Wednesday 3 May 6-9)
Duncan Campbell 18-28 May (PV Wednesday 17 May 6-9)
