THE VOID: Wolfgang H Scholz; Photography, Film, Performance and Installation


Add your own review!

Overview

Wolfgang H Scholz (b. 1958) is a visual artist and film director. His work spans more than three decades and encompasses apart from painting many forms of expression, ranging from theatrical and documentary films, sculpture, photography, and installations to multimedia stage pieces. His central theme is the vision of an imaginary arrival, and his work method is a form of decoding. Other essential concepts that recur in Scholz's work include the labyrinth, time, memories or localization and the questioning of reality. The title The Void is taken from a Buddhist term for the Fifth Element: The Void. Since 2010 Scholz has worked with Japanese Butoh masters, creating several multimedia stage pieces and series of photographic works on this theme. This book will be published to coincide with exhibitions by the MACO - Museum of Contemporary Art Oaxaca (2019), Mexico, the Museum Ex Teresa Arte Actual (2019), the gallery Casa Galvan - UAM - Universidad Autonoma metropolitana (2020) and in collaboration with the presentations of the performance THE VOID at the Butoh Festival Kyoto, Japan (July 2019) and at the Theatre CC Los Talleres, Mexico City in 2019. Text in English with a Spanish and German insert. AUTHORS: Wolfgang H. Scholz (Germany, 1958) is a German painter, photographer and film director. He lives and works between Mexico City and Munich. Irving Dominguez (Mexico City, 1976) is a Mexico City-based curator and visual arts critic. Boris Groys (Berlin, 1947) is a German writer and a thinker. SELLING POINTS: .
