J\u00e1nos Fodor is a realist – of the brief, self-contained moment. Generally, his films are sequences composed of numerous snapshots pinpointing the unusual in moments of everyday urban life. Fodor develops short clips conveying single ideas, without dwelling for long on formal questions or sentimental observations. Using a combination of irony and sympathy, the artist strolls among urban furnishings and public transport, window displays and signs of all kinds, and so observes the diversity of those who inhabit urban spaces.<\/p>\n
“In Fodor’s works, reflecting surfaces distort reality in a creative way, leading weather vanes on churches to bend and shimmer, while fluttering plastic packaging – left behind on a row of brand-new street bollards – brings to light a spiritual truth.” (M. and R. Fowkes)<\/p>\n
J\u00e1nos Fodor’s exhibition in Studio 3 presents a series of digital snapshots and a collection of found installations, situations and actions, as well as smaller objects, drawings, video and sound. All of these have one common denominator: they have some reference to Berlin, and they are concerned with an investigation into urban space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","categories":[],"class_list":["post-12043","kb_exhibition","type-kb_exhibition","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"article_image":15245,"article_image_bu_de":"","article_image_bu_en":"","datum_suche":"2014-06-20 09:55:51"},"yoast_head":"\n
