巴塞尔更多展览

You walk into the first room and find a cow, larger than life, lying still across three 98-inch screens. Only the occasional rise of its flank shows it is alive. Flies circle it, and their faint hum grows the longer you stay until it fills the empty room.

Özgür Kar draws every figure by hand, animates it, then ties it to its own monitors in an endless loop. Five rooms, one figure each: a green figure curled in on itself, a reclining body after Holbein's Dead Christ in the Tomb with its nerves glowing like inflammation, an empty human skin hanging in mid-air, and a kneeling figure, voiced by Ivan Cheng, talking itself in circles.

The mood is the title: the lowest point, with no hint of what comes next. The five loops run 57 minutes end to end. Entry is CHF 12, including S AM, free up to 18, and Thursdays run to 20:30. On 18 November, 6 to 8pm, there is life drawing in the show.

A larger-than-life cow lies still across three giant screens while the hum of circling flies fills the room. Özgür Kar's hand-drawn figures loop in five rooms, one each, including a body after Holbein's Dead Christ with its nerves glowing.

看点

  • Cow and the Flies

    In Room 1, a larger-than-life cow lies still across three 98-inch screens while flies circle it, their buzzing building the longer you watch the 15-minute loop.

  • Transparent Figure (Anxiety)

    In Room 2, a green monochrome figure curls in on itself across two 85-inch screens, which Kar treats as a canvas rather than a TV.

  • Transparent Figure (Pain Relief)

    In Room 3, a reclining body after Holbein's Dead Christ in the Tomb stretches over 5.7 metres of screens, its nerve pathways glowing in bright colours and throbbing erratically.

  • Human Hide

    In Room 4, a body's empty skin hangs across two 98-inch screens more than four metres wide, with no bones or nerves inside it.

  • Transparent Figure (Data Retention Plea)

    In the last room, a kneeling figure voiced by Ivan Cheng talks to an unseen listener for 22 minutes, begging to be recorded and kept.
