“We need a port of departure: A shore or view, an event or a story.
The place we are leaving is less important than the one we will arrive at.“
Breviare Mediterraneen, Predag Matvejevic
Hiroshi Sugimoto/ Time Exposed: A presentation of some of Sugimoto’s photographs from the portfolio “Time Exposed.” The portfolio consists of 50 images of different seascapes. Music by Arvo Part. Prepared by Vilis Inde and inde/jacobs gallery of Marfa
Most people look at the sea from the land, some prefer to look at the land from the ocean; As a little girl sailing in the Mediterranean – I loved watching the horizon change slowly as we arrived at a port.
Janine Antoni’s is suggesting of an “answer” to the longing one feels as he watches the water. It is a clever video art work and an example of reaching the untouchable.
