WAR is centered around a large painting and its inverse-colored photographic pendant--the "afterimage" in the lingo of the artists. The figure is an axe-wielding punk set against a backdrop of multicolored swastikas. At first glance it is an easy painting to appreciate--"attractive" in its size, colors, edgy provocation and execution. Yet the bloody subject and swastika imagery--difficult to see at first--make it problematic, even taboo. It is vague enough to attract multiple meanings--from the historical (Nazi Germany) to the pop-cultural (Mad Max, Blade Run ner, savage video games, etc.). It is meant to evoke a current state of affairs in politics, in the world and in the art world, but for the artists, it is also deeply personal. Says Nils of Artis ts Anonymous: "This is about our life, about our group, about Berlin and how we live and work and interact." The process of making negative photographic prints of paintings and making video work with inverted colors embodies Artis ts Anonymous refusal to occupy anything other than a perfect limbo. And yet their refusal to take up a single position is not an amoral one; rather it is a serious commentary of the difficulties of taking any sides and on the necessity of seeing things from multiple angles and opposite perspectives. Artis ts Anonymous live and work together in Berlin . (Quelle: Goff + Rosenthal , New York)
