AZIZ + CUCHER | GROUP EXHIBITION | HERZLIYA MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART, ISRAEL

Aziz+ Cucher’s 8 channel video installation “In Some Country Under a Sun and Some Clouds” will be installed at the Herzliya Museum of Contemporary Art starting on February 14th. This video installation presents a series of six monumental figures projected onto landscapes, seemingly caught in a state of paralysis and indecision, endlessly repeating gestures that seem to prevent them from exiting history or entering some future, and straddling the awkward divide between the comic and the tragic. For this work the artists collaborated with a group of six dancers who perform a series of tasks and choreographed gestures recorded in front of a green screen and digitally inserted into biblical, timeless landscapes.

 

“In Some Country Under a Sun and Some Clouds” is part of a series of exhibitons and projects which will run from 14 February to 11 April at Herzliya Museum of Contemporary Art, Israel.
