Clare Strand featured in El Hotel Eléctrico – Rooms Available at M HKA in Antwerp

February 21- May 11th 2014







When does animation become art? What remains of animation when it leaves the cinema or TV screen, and manifests itself in other spaces? The exhibition El Hotel Eléctrico – Rooms Available sets out in search of the many expressions of the phenomenon of ‘animation’ in a broader sense, starting with the medium in its earliest forms, at the time when this artistic practice was not yet constrained by the conventions and clichés of the film industry.


When animation leaves the confined frame of the movie screen and pops up in a museum, it no longer offers the visitor a purely visual experience, but rather creates a space in which exploration is encouraged.El Hotel Eléctrico was conceived as a visual essay, a space-related experience. Animation here is understood as entering a force field: the manipulation of images and objects in 'staged' museum rooms, the bridging of intervals.
In El Hotel Eléctrico, visitors step into another time and space. For much like a hotel, a museum is a place where every visitor is but a temporary guest. The tension between public and private, between neutral interiors and personalized objects, between waking and sleeping, and between working and dreaming creates playful contrasts in every single 'room' of El Hotel Eléctrico.
El Hotel Eléctrico presents an alternatingly merry and macabre, monochromatic and brightly coloured, magical and mysterious framework for works by Robert Breer, David Claerbout, Robert Devriendt, Léon Foucault, Sara van der Heide, Pierre Huyghe, Katrin Kamrau, Julien Maire, Anthony McCall, Lars Morell, Matt Mullican, Philip Newcombe, Honoré d’O, Roman Ondák, Cornelia Parker, Philippe Parreno, Bart Prinsen, The Quay Brothers, Yann Sérandour, Tommy Simoens, Michael Snow, Clare Strand, Javier Téllez, Luc Tuymans.

Most Popular of All Time open at Kunsthaus Essen TOMORROW


November 3rd - December 15th, 2013

Opening: November 3rd, 2013 at 4pm 



The exhibition "Most Popular of All Time" by Clare beach and Gordon MacDonald's goal to include in a completely new and as yet unknown way the viewer as an active part of the exhibition event in the artistic design with. Under normal conditions the visitors of art exhibitions is set to the role of detached observer. The works shown may not be touched or removed freely even from their designated places usually. The actual creation process is mediated by adapting the catalog essays, on guided tours or - more rarely - by talking to the respective artists.
The planned exhibition at the Kunsthaus Essen defines the usual role of the observer and the relationship between the artist and the recipient again. It allows the viewer to collagen borateur and accomplices of the artistic intentions are and asks him outright, actively participate in the creation of artworks.
Icons of Photography of the 20th Century for the selected source material, photographs, however, show up in the exhibition not as reproductions, but as line drawings. As drawings, which have yet to be made as such - here by the viewer. This is confronted with large-scale prints that make memories immediately to the appropriate photographic models germinate. One can see lines that are composed in part to known photo motives, but also suddenly stop in their momentum to leave blank spaces arise that are marked by numbers. Intuitively, it connects with the eyes and pulls the numbers are between the points, so as to perfect the design finally. In the end you speak direct share in the tracing of photographic subjects that have now achieved cult status and have become an integral part of our image-based reality.
Most Popular of All Time is not really a photo project. The book of the same name is published in the form of a coloring book for children, but issued for a different audience and with other intentions. The book contains selected by an online poll popular photographs of the history of photography, well-known, widely published and discussed icons of photographic art from the 20th Century. The photographs shown here are now so ubiquitous that it's hard their content to new sehen.Sie have long since removed from the context of their original creation, meaning and evaluation. With such, archived in our collective image memory images are epochal world events, political True strength th, social dramas and humanity moving epics condense on the narrow space for the photographer to be compressed, symbolic and weighty representation worlds universal statements about human existence couple to individual destinies and situations. With pictorial formulas such photographs lift the mediated by the excessive abundance images and signs.

Clare Strand in conversation on Another Magazine...


Clare Strand from the series Skirts, 2011

Photographer Clare Strand’s latest project offers an enigmatic look at the simple table skirt. Continuing her investigation into the complex meanings of everyday objects, Strand’s publication, Skirts, features a series of photos taken at a council-owned ballroom, where table skirting, hired from a commercial supplier, is captured unceremoniously in situ. Though in black and white, the skirts are noticeably different colours, as well as different shapes and sizes, and despite striking a similar scene, the variation between each image is uncanny. Here, Strand talks about David Lynch, working without colour, and the relationship between humour and morbidity.
What was your inspiration for Skirts?It’s hard to pick out the defining inspiration from the plethora of stuff that allowed me to think that Skirts was a worthwhile work to make. Sometimes inspiration can be a slightly overrated concept. I prefer to work on ideas in a consistent, if disorderly way.
