"I'm an exhibition", 2002
The exhibition began with I am an Exhibition (2002), a haunting installation by Philipp Gasser, who emptied the darkened gallery but for a tall, empty sculpture pedestal in the center of the room. Aimed at the pedestal was a black-and-white video projection of tall, slowly shifting vertical bands that cast on the walls animated shadows of the pedestal as well as gallery visitors moving through the space. In this work, Gasser has reduced the complexities of visual reality to its fundamentals of light and shade.
