Winterling • Myths of the Marble documents a group exhibition that took place in 2017 at the Henie Onstad Kunstsenter, Norway (HOK) and the Institute of Contemporary Art, University of Pennsylvania (ICA). Cocurated by Alex Klein (ICA) and Milena Hoegsberg (HOK), the exhibition reflects upon how the “virtual” has been engaged by contemporary artists as a way to consider the world as a site of possibility and limitation that both permeates physical space and online experience. • The book features individual profiles of each artist, generously illustrated with images of works spanning painting, sculpture, and installation to video, 16-mm film, and VR technology, as well as exhibition views from both venues. Homay King and Tom Holert each provide essays that meditate upon how virtuality in its various forms offer radical reconfigurations of the body, ecology, and architectural space at a moment when the capacity to depict the world has never been greater, and where reality is itself increasingly articulated as a construction. Rounding out the book is a discussion between artists Cayetano Ferrer, Florian Meisenberg, and Sondra Perry with art historians Iggy Cortez and Marina Isgro, which delves into concepts ranging from the video game “skybox” to the complexities of the “prosthetic.” • In the bookshop today and via our website. • #worldfoodbooks #mythsofthemarble #sternbergpress (at WORLD FOOD BOOKS)

Ignas Krunglevičius的《Hard Body Trade》建立了一个鸟瞰视角，带领我们飞越崇山峻岭，大千世界尽收眼底。乍一看，作品的图像仿佛精心制作的动画电子游戏，或是电脑进入休眠模式后的屏保。云雾缭绕，群山峻岭；阳光洗涤着悬崖，从阴影到山体；一声尖锐的鸟鸣好像在提醒我们这确是一个真实的自然世界。

不，或许也并非如此…… 节奏蓝调音乐引入一个女声，像是电脑合成，仿佛屏幕背后那拥有未知智慧的世界的主人，开始向我们灌输规训：“我们戴着面具，与你一样。我们用数学来取代事物，你的思想就像脂肪一样在身体里堆积…… 暗度陈仓，没有器官的健体——完成了这场交易。我们正在进行你最后认知的升级”。这个声音显得陌生疏离，非你我族类，为我们人类世界提议一种有效的健身方式——拥有强健的体魄。

此番陈述与屏幕中极尽自然之美的景象似乎是风马牛不相及。她的语调显得胸有成竹，志在必得。在我们当下的世纪中，“今天所处的世界，部分由构筑世界的科技介入，部分由我们自己的思想介入，其模式认知路径片刻不停地将数字假象编织进入意识的个人影像。”在这个作品中，不妨将数字假象理解为电脑入睡所产生的图像；换言之，这是电脑的梦境。如果说，人类的梦境与清醒时的思想在本质上大相径庭，机器可能并非如此。相反，机器似乎成了东道主，邀请我们加入旅程，经过编排的风景，一个受到充分观察和控制的天下，以及令人想到的儿时的飞翔之梦。

Interrogation, Ignas Krunglevičius

Confession

A collection of eight confessions, hand written and court transcripts, of convicted criminals. It is then reduced to only those sentences were the criminal is talking about his or hers own emotions. The perpetrators personal landscape of guilt is revealed with no descriptions about the actual criminal act. The most extreme act of violence contains something that we can all recognize in ourselves; the inner psychological patterns of reasoning and justification, remorse and/or the lack of it.
