JOHAN THOM: TWILIGHT (OF THE IDOLS) AND BIND/ONTBIND (SERIES 1)
First presented at the 2003 Venice Biennale, Johan Thom shows the video projection Bind/Ontbind as “a metaphor for the constant processes of decay and of regeneration [which] may disfigure us, but whenever we attempt to replace them with new systems of thought we are in fact simply disfiguring ourselves anew. Also, at the opening, Thom will perform (Twilight) of the Idols, exploring the physical action of the clenched fist associated with political groups, anger, violence and frustration.
