Indepth Arts News: "Re:mote - Relationship between Land and Place" 2001-11-30 until 2002-01-19 Photographers' Gallery London, , UK
Many of
the artists follow the romantic tendency to return to nature and
replicate wild rural idylls; others reveal the artifice of landscape.
The impetus for some are the politics of land - using technology
to highlight issues about polluted dumping grounds and nuclear
wastelands. Threaded through is the experience of
long-distance forms of communication which can simultaneously
collapse barriers of space, location and time whilst creating a
sense of alienation and isolation.
As part of this exhibition, Re: mote,The Photographers' Gallery
is developing a project with artist, Erwin Wurm and The Media
Centre, Huddersfield, for which participants are required. If you
