Threatening
marks of our time, if political media pictures affect the art, the difficulties
begin: art gets stuck in its time if the documentation character or the
political picture statement remain unambiguous, as for example in the
seventies. Bernard Föll chooses a helicopter as a central Bildmotiv
of a mysterious situation admission. We are in a picture relation hot
off the press (Afghanistan) or here it is about a processed film impression
(Apocalypse Now)? Helicopters are icons of our (Postwar) time. This Berlin artist has used media models as picture impulses since the end of the eighties. So interfere nce in his work pictograms with newspaper pictures from the daily press, short-lived and cultural assets of our generation. If the helicopter, now here, the "drone" becomes, the documentation value is crossed. Game and seriousness, art and world affairs are no more contrasting pairs in these pictures. |
