UNZ. THE EYECHART SERIES (miriam mone/max gansberger)
– are Austrian articipants in the exchange Artist-in-residence Program of Art Today Association and < rotor > association for contemporary art, Graz, Austria. They resided and worked in the Art Today Multimedia Lab for a month.
artist group unz. (engl.: uz., paying hommage to all possessing possessive pronouns)was founded in spring 2005, to form common and diverging notions of the world. fields of interest are every day culture, its urban symptoms, society- based values and agreements, phenomenons of appearance, perception and form developing of industrial fabrication and standardization, cultural habits and processes of remembering, forgetting and replacing.
Presentation of their works - on JULY the 12th, at 20.00 in Center for contemporary art – Plovdiv, Ancient Bath.
eyechart series - are usually strictly functional things. you read them just to read them, thats their only pure function - the content doesn't matter. from up to down the letters and icons become smaller and smaller - it becomes harder by every row to recipe it. the unz eyecharts work the same way, using the same means of visual and formal language.
public paint - public temporary installation on plovdiv's roads and sidewalks. Vanishing traces of every day life requested to remain a little while, city's
flow holds the brush and paints it's expressionist pictures.
doggy vision - see with different eyes during the party at the bath.
