FACELESSNESS<!--title-->
<br />
de markten cultuurcentrum _ bruxelles
cura _ bogomir doringer

Curated by artist Bogomir Doringer in support of Brigitte Felderer from the Applied Arts Academy in Vienna, this is an exhibition exploring a phenomenon present all around us: the fashion of facelessness that first appeared in the creative arts at the beginning of this century and has remained popular since then. The exhibition reminds us of the impact that media-generated images can have on the creative arts and the ways in which they respond to public images, pop culture, and the mainstream in general. The exhibition shows, the appeal that hiding, veiling, or masking the face exerted on art and fashion after 9/11. The fear of terrorist attacks led to a change in security concepts and the installment of surveillance systems in public spaces – presented to us as if for our own safety. As a result, we feel that our faces are becoming “compressed” and exposed. The only way for us to regain this lost privacy is through subversive media strategies or by reinventing privacy. By wearing a “mask” we form a collective critical body. As the value of facial identifiability has risen, abstracted forms and representations of faces have become increasingly common in artistic production. Bogomir Doringer, for one, has been exploring the theme of facelessness in fashion and art for years. “Our unstable identity yearns for a return to the mask,” he says. “Like in times past, we are attracted to wearing masks as a form of protection or camouflage, as a prop, or just for entertainment.”
FACELESS continues the survey in a more participatory, laboratory approach and researching practical solutions for anonymity in contemporary society that are result of interdisciplinary works involving art or coming from artist mostly. The focus is on interdisciplinary works and lectures, performances, and workshops that convey how we can survive without losing face and at the same time revolt. In De Markten, FACELESS will be presented in a smaller format as a media laboratory open on the invitation of and as part of the 8th “Computers, Privacy and Data Protection congress”. The exhibition successfully merges art and fashion in the context of a subject that is of collective urgency and importance. FACELESS was presented and produced for the first time at Museums Quartier in Vienna, and then later presented at Mediamatic in Amsterdam. In spring 2015 it will shape itself in a form of publication published in support of the Applied Arts Academy, Artistic Technology Research, Museums Quartier and Linz Art Academy.
