Playful Subversion - Beni Bischof
“Playful Subversion,” which Swiss artist Beni Bischof created for his first Austrian exhibition at the FOTOHOF in Salzburg, lives up to its promise: it is a practical and highly entertaining guide in which the major icons of the culture industry have been deconstructed. The visual cosmos—a contrasting panorama of our postmodern media culture—creates a subversive attraction that is hard to resist. The juxtaposition of black-and-white reproductions not only deconstructs and subverts numerous heroes but also creates diverse spaces for association and playful appropriation.
