Bilder der Sprache und Sprache der Bilder

What do a medieval epitaph, a picture-poem by Günter Brus and VALIE EXPORT's video poem "Visual Text: Finger Poem" have in common? It is the combination of words and images, which has been used as a means of existential expression since the beginning of time. 0"Images in Language and the Language of Images? focuses on the wide field of word-image art from the Middle Ages until today. During the Middle Ages, words and images were used to convey religious ideas and complex theological thought, while Modernity uses letters as visual signs in and of themselves: they become images. They were used in a similar way, when images were deemed inappropriate, as in the religious art of Islam, Judaism, or during the early European Middle Ages. 0The exhibition spans serial works featuring words and images by Blake, Kubin, Brus, as well as Gothic evangeliaries to words as images00Exhibition: Dom Museum, Vienna, Austria (07.10.2017-26.08.2018).
