Miriam Bajtala / Group XVIII, Apr 04 - Sept 04

MANDATORY

9/7/04 to 9/9/04

MAK Center at the Schindler House

Miriam Bajtala presented two works. “Swing,” a video installation, addressed the manipulation of cinematic perspective through devices of framing and aggressive sound. Fixing a camera on a grating, rusty swing, she submitted a banal scenario to distortion as landscape and horizon shifted to and from. With the intervention, “Drucker,” Bajtala responded to the architecture of the Schindler House in a series of photographs of people pressed up against windows, looking in from outside. This work continued the artist’s investigation of internal and external spaces in the institutional realm.
