Argot, by Concha Jerez & José Iges
10-11-2012 / 10-02-2013
as a part of the exhibition EXPANDED RADIO.
The multimedia installation “ARGOT”,
filling an entire room, originated in a radio performance
broadcast on ORF Kunstradio and was first shown in 1991
at the Museum of Modern Art, Vienna. Since then, various versions
of the work have appeared in Cologne, Las Palmas
and Brussels among other places.
“ARGOT” is based on a text in English, Spanish,
German and French exploring the relationships
between artists and the world, their work, the ideas
behind their works and the “consumers” of these works.
Visitors must listen to all four languages in the
acoustic space in order to comprehend the connection
between them.
