HAPPY — Installation Shots

Robert Barta develops his work from what surrounds us daily. His pieces arise less from the form of an object than from an idea that materializes within an object. He works with inversions and shifts, with interventions that disrupt familiar orders and detach them from their usual context. The works do not require deciphering in the classical sense; rather, we as viewers are drawn into the thought process. Many works only unfold in the encounter with their counterpart. It is not the object alone that produces meaning, but the perception of those who encounter it. His art can thus be understood as an open process in which perception, language, and action mutually influence one another.

Stefanie Trojan changes the way we perceive things. She focuses her attention on interpersonal relationships. She doesn’t work with everyday objects, but with everyday gestures: a touch, a hug, a request, a question. These are gestures we know from our daily lives and that structure our interactions almost imperceptibly. In her performances, she not only uses her own body as an artistic medium, but also incorporates the bodies of the visitors. She herself says: “I try to expand the concept of performance by passing the action on to the viewers. Their reaction completes my work.“ The performance doesn’t lie solely in the artist’s action, but arises where others react: in hesitation, in going along with it, in rejection, or in helping. The work unfolds between people and in their reactions.

Rond en rond en rond… Je ogen volgen het bierviltje. Het zal toch een keer stoppen? Maar dit bijzondere viltje blijft maar draaien!

✨HOE DOET ’IE DAT?

Het geheim zit in het magnetische plateau onder het bierviltje. Geen magie dus, maar wel fascinerend om naar te kijken.

🤩 KOM JE LANGS?

HAPPY — Robert Barta & Stefanie Trojan
Opening Wednesday 10 September,

Robert Barta develops his work from what surrounds us daily. His pieces arise less from the form of an object than from an idea that materialises within it. He works with inversions and shifts, with interventions that disrupt familiar orders and detach them from their usual context.

The works do not require deciphering in the classical sense; we as viewers are drawn into the thought process instead. Many of them only unfold in the encounter with their counterpart. It is not the object alone that produces meaning, but the perception of whoever meets it — an open process in which perception, language and action influence one another.

Stefanie Trojan changes the way we perceive things, focusing her attention on interpersonal relationships. She works not with everyday objects but with everyday gestures: a touch, a hug, a request, a question. These are gestures we know from daily life, structuring our interactions almost imperceptibly. In her performances she uses her own body as an artistic medium, and the bodies of the visitors as well.

“I try to expand the concept of performance by passing the action on to the viewers. Their reaction completes my work.” — Stefanie Trojan

The performance does not lie in the artist’s action alone. It arises where others react: in hesitation, in going along with it, in rejection, or in helping. The work unfolds between people.

11ème @biennale_de_melle très réussie !
J'ai été touchée par le petit côté "madeleine de Proust" , le train électrique , les bols chantants, les petites fées clochettes dans le jardin, la moissonneuse des champs, la bande magnétique volante échappée des cassettes du walkman de mes 13 ans, et les sons qui vont avec et qui nous restent en tête.
J'ai aimé les voyages en Algérie et ailleurs, les thématiques plus politiques, l'audace et la provocation parfois.
A Saint Savinien, j'ai apprécié la création "D'un temps, l'autre" (Bertille Bak et Charles-Henry Fertin), rappel du passé carcéral de cette église, et de par mon histoire personnelle, j'ai imaginé un lien avec l'histoire scientifique, technique et industrielle de la ville.
J'ai été hypnotisée par "Sonic Propellers" de Susanna Fritscher , qui m'a emmenée au cinéma, je ne sais pas trop pourquoi mais un peu avec James Stewart dans des escaliers (pour le vertige) et aussi avec Laura Palmer (pour la musique).
Une belle invitation à la rêverie avec ces bruissements patients proposés par @janfkopp, bravo !

Ça me redonne envie de partir en collectage de mémoires melloises de ces 11 biennales et celles qui suivront !

A voir à Melle jusqu'au 27 septembre !

Last Window ____the simplicity is deliberate. Image is framed inside the above door window. the installation is designed to be seen by viewers in transit whose eyes can flick over the image and retain it as they pass, either on foot or fleetingly from the car. the works are unlabelled, adding to the intrigue. light, another recurring feature, creates a startling effect through the day inferring changes onto the image. what would you exhibit as your very last picture having been told the world is going to end soon? I have picked the very first photographic image I took in Athens back in Summer 1975/LW2025/26@theboundary____NW8 0RH
