Pascale Birchler at Kunsthalle Luzern
Pascale Birchler's solo exhibition "Ich kann dich sehen" at Kunsthalle Luzern explores the concept of visibility in art. The artist delves into the idea of making art as a decision of visibility, a presence that seeps into thoughts, dreams, and life itself. "Ich kann dich sehen" captures the essence of encountering something that lingers in the eyes of imagination, a mix of stubbornness, fear, and desire to come to life.
The exhibition space, a monochromatic room in gray with curved walls and high curtains, sets the stage for a theatrical experience. Each artwork is illuminated in the darkness, creating a sense of intimacy and drama. Birchler's intention is to orchestrate a series of small scenes on a stage with a closed curtain, inviting viewers to engage with the art.
Rehearsal
Birchler challenges the traditional viewer-artwork relationship by suggesting that artworks can also look back. The dynamic between the observer and the observed blurs, questioning who sees whom and the significance of the gaze's origin. "I can see you" carries a deeper meaning of recognition and revelation, transcending logic and right or wrong.
The exhibition invites viewers to contemplate the encounter with the other, the essence of recognition, and the interplay between visibility and perception in art.
