Rut Blees Luxemburg talk, Turner Contemporary Margate
In relation to the Hamish Fulton exhibition WALK at Turner Contemporary, London based artist Rut Blees Luxemburg discusses the importance of walking to her photographic work. From the iconic ‘London - A Modern Project’ series to the recent ‘Black Sunrise’ set in New York, she considers ideas that accentuate and amplify the importance of the ground and the horizontal, light and illumination, and attempts to outline a geopoetical vision.

Explorarán los espacios públicos de los espacios urbanos de ciudades como Londres, Dakar o Nueva York. Estas fotografías sugieren diferentes modos de lectura de la ciudad, donde las ambiciones y la inesperada expansión sensual del “proyecto moderno” se revelan. En su trabajo, Blees Luxemburg saca a la luz lo mirado, lo olvidado y lo no visto, y crea vertiginosas y envolventes composiciones que se enfrentan a las percepciones establecidas de la ciudad, haciendo hincapié en lo surrealista, lo poético y los aspectos fragmentarios de una percepción urbana. http://www.emergent-lleida.org/eng/Programme-2011/Conferences
