“Projecting Cities” - Herbert Johns
on Museum Exhibition
The multiplicity of the gaze is present within the city and its representations. Projecting Cities investigates the ways in which the inhabitant and the city project off one another to reveal the interactions between the past and the present, the technological and the topographical, the individual and the collective. This exhibition and its cities create projections onto each other, complicating and activating the spaces among the artists, inhabitants, and viewers. The exhibition consists of films projected on the façade of the I.M.Pei designed museum and artworks exhibited in the museum gallery with a selection that includes artists like Gordon Matta-Clark, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Zheng Guogu and Henry Callahan.
