Eva Früh
July 9 to August 17, 2007: Heart Center
The inner world of the outer world of the inner world!
The inner world of the Heart Center: doctors, visitors, patients. Behind the corridor doors are hospital rooms, operating theaters, treatment rooms, offices. As visitors, we are "on the outside" and happy about the congestion of health, not at all eager to penetrate further into the inner world.
But these days another door to the inner world has been opened, the artistic one. Eva Früh figures equipment in sheer sterility. This is intentional and perfectly realized aesthetically. We encounter the helping and rescue-promising equipment in clear contours. Elegant hose curves, casually hanging plastic bottles.
Moreover, the hanging is ingenious: the sheets, attached to clips, are strung together as if they needed each other to keep untangling.
The detail makes it clear: don't be afraid! The doctors know how to handle the equipment with confidence - just as confidently as the artist has drawn them: All "ink on paper" in DIN A4 format from 2007. Significantly, they all bear the same title: "Heart Center" - numbered to distinguish them.
Mr. Sahner from the Heart Center gave a welcoming speech. Vinko Pokerznik gave the introduction.
