| [Nettime-ro] BAZIS Contemporary Art Space Mat Collishaw - Shakin’ Jesus |
*Mat Collishaw - **Shakinâ** Jesus* *BÃZIS* â contemporary art space and *White Project Pescara* opening: *1 June** , 2012, h: 19.00* address: Fabrica de Pensule, 59-61 Henri Barbusse st., 1st floor, Cluj-Napoca* * Matthew "Mat" Collishaw (1966, Nottingham, UK) is an artist based in London, one of the so-called Young British Artists, thus most exhibited together with Damien Hirst, Gary Hume, Douglas Gordon and Sarah Lucas. His work uses photography and video, included also in revolutionary exhibition, âSensationâ at the Royal Academy of Art in 1997. Mat Collishawâs video art-work âShakinâ Jesusâ has a straight focus on the fragility of human condition: Christ has completely abandoned the idea of hope, abandoned himself to the terrors of death, of suffering as a total and final feeling; he trembles, moans, his destiny is complete loneliness. The real challenge for the British artist resides in finding a visual language bearing the authenticity norms, in his artistic approach of re-enacting the crucifixion. Collishaw goes even further, engaging the viewerâs mindset in a cognitive dissonant act, because the artist propounds a pathetic image of Jesus, a classic sanctuary image in contrast with a profound realistic sky image. This engenders a special connection, the one between the Suffering Christ and the witnessing sky. The vide art-work of the artist appeals to the west christian classic art masters representations, but at same time it aims for an authentic language of crucifixion: it introduces, through the means of the video-projection, the time and spams of the body as a vital aspect of this symbolic scene.

Este centrat pe fotografie Èi video, incluse Ãn expoziÈia reformatoare numitÄ âSensationâ, de la Royal Academy of Art din 1997. Lucrarea video âShakin` Jesusâ a artistului Mat Collishaw este centratÄ pe fragilitatea existenÈei omeneÈti: Hristos este ÃnfrÃnt, fÄrÄ speranÈÄ, e Ãnvins de teroarea morÈii, de suferinÈe fÄrÄ scÄpare; tremurÄ, geme, soarta lui este singurÄtatea totalÄ. Cea mai importantÄ provocare pentru artistul britanic este gÄsirea unui limbaj vizual autentic pentru reconstituirea crucificÄrii. Collishaw expune o imagine emoÈionantÄ a lui Isus, o picturÄ clasicÄ de altar, care este contrastatÄ de o imagine realistÄ a cerului. Se formeazÄ o conexiune specialÄ Ãntre Hristos Cel Suferind Èi cerul martor. Lucrarea video a artistului invocÄ reprezentÄrile maeÈtrilor clasici din arta creÈtinÄ apuseanÄ, totodatÄ ÃncearcÄ o exprimare cÃt mai autenticÄ a rÄstignirii: introduce prin video-proiecÈie timpul Èi convulsiile corpului ca un aspect vital al acestei scene simbolice.

Mat Collishaw RemegÅ JÃzus cÃmÅ videÃmunkÃja az emberi lÃt tÃrÃkenysÃgÃre fÃkuszÃl: Krisztus remÃnytelenÃl kiszolgÃltatott, legyÅzte a halÃl terrorja, a kiÃt nÃlkÃli szenvedÃs, reszket, nyÃszÃrÃg, sorsa a teljes elhagyatottsÃg. Mindennek hiteles kÃpi megfogalmazÃsa a legfontosabb kihÃvÃs a brit mÅvÃsz szÃmÃra. Collishaw egyrÃszt patetikus krisztuskÃpet ÃpÃt fel, egy klasszikus oltÃrkÃpet, amit mÃsrÃszrÅl realisztikus Ãgbolttal bÅvÃt. KÃlÃnleges kapcsolat jÃn lÃtre a reszketÅ JÃzus Ãs a figyelÅ Ãgbolt kÃzÃtt. Matt Collishaw videÃmunkÃja a mÅvÃszettÃrtÃnet nagy mestereinek Krisztus ÃbrÃzolÃsait idÃzi meg, ugyanakkor igyekszik a halÃlszenvedÃst mÃg hitelesebb mÃdon megfogalmazni: a projekcià rÃvÃn az idÅt, a test gÃrcsÃs rÃndulÃsait is szerves mÃdon ÃpÃti be az ikonikus szcÃnÃba.
