David Malkovic - Temporary Projections Carter - Erased James Franco 29 June 2011 to 13 Aug 2011 Opening: Tuesday June 28th 7-9 pm Press Preview: Tuesday June 28th 11 am DAVID MALJKOVIC Temporary Projections June 29 – August 13, 2011 Georg Kargl Fine Arts presents Temporary Projections , the second solo show of the Croatian artist David Maljkovic, and his first one in the main space of the gallery. In his installations, videos, and collages, David Maljkovic (born in 1973) is concerned with aspects of the eventful history of his country. The far-reaching consequences of the transformation from a communist to a capitalist social system and the linked economic and cultural impacts form the subtext of his artistic production. Exploring the modernist remnants of socialist Yugoslavia and their echoes to the present as well as their future possibilities is one of the main themes in his artistic practice. In recalling the ideas of the past, analyzing their impact on the presence, transforming them into sites of an utopian alternative future, he achieves a shifting between different time levels. With his current exhibition at Georg Kargl Fine Arts David Maljkovic has undertaken an experimental journey through the broad and complex space of the gallery. Through a massive architectural intervention the gallery is divided into a public and a private space, an exposed and a hidden part. With Temporary Projections David Maljkovic creates an atmospherically charged overall installation. |
