Zwei Künstler, zwei Generationen und eine denkbar unterschiedliche Herkunft: Die SCHIRN widmet den überraschenden und bislang weitgehend übersehenen Verbindungen im Werk von Alberto Giacometti (1901-1966) und Bruce Nauman (*1941) eine umfassende Ausstellung. Zeichnungen, Fotografien, Videos, Skulpturen und raumgreifende Installationen des US-amerikanischen Multimediakünstlers treten mit ausgewählten Skulpturen und Gemälden des Schweizer Bildhauers in einen spannungsvollen Dialog. 00Exhibition: Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt, Germany (28.10.2016-22.01.2017).

"Jean-Paul Sartre said that Giacometti's figures often become 'so fully real that they can be as positive and unforgettable as a physical blow.' Bruce Nauman once remarked that he wanted to make art that affects people 'like getting hit in the face with a baseball bat. Or better, like getting hit in the back of the neck.' As everyone surely knows, a blow with a fist or to the neck is most effective when it is unexpected, when it comes out of nowhere, so to speak. And thus we have the shared background of an all-encompassing 'void' to thank for the fact that both Alberto Giacometti and Bruce Nauman succeed in much the same way in knocking us--surely and permanently--off balance with their works."
