Last week I saw a show at the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit featuring work by Alexander Gutke.
From MOCAD's website:
Preoccupied with modes of reproduction, self-reflexivity, illusionism and cinema, the work of Alexander Gutke could be characterized by a kind of mystical materialism. His exploration of these concerns moves into a variegated and allegorical territory whose many terrains include space and the void, animation and illusion, and the micro and the macro. Gutke's meticulous and poetic sensibility is that of an unusual storyteller whose works narrate their own material conditions with a sublime economy. More...
I was left absolutely cold by the work, but very interested in the wall text. I'm struggling with formulating a solid opinion of the show and keep thinking about it...Is anyone familiar with his work?
