#imagemotif

[drawdownbooks]

Last Copy! Byproducts / Matters by Julian Irlinger / Available at www.draw-down.com / The digitalization of museums is a global process that is changing our perception of these institutions. Museums, which used to guarantee that their exhibits could be appreciated in isolation, have now become accessible online 24/7. In Byproducts and Matters, #JulianIrlinger works with the images that are produced via this process. Taking advantage of virtual museum tours, he uses screenshots to record snippets of the interior spaces, showing zoomed-in details of high-resolution art reproductions. The incidental becomes the #imagemotif. The pictures display pixelated works of art, cleaning utensils that have been set aside, or the reflections of studio lights on the painting’s varnish. The two artist’s books— #Byproducts and #Matters —are published as a double volume, creating their own spaces for the contexts and narratives associated with viewing art today.
