Spear to Heaven by Pipilotti Rist
The Leeum Samsung Museum of Art in Seoul has invited Swiss video artist Pipilotti Rist for its Black Box media art series, an intense audio-visual exhibition.
For the second time, the museum has invited an internationally-renowned artist for its Black Box media art project series. The guest is none other than Swiss video-maker Pipilotti Rist, whose intense and colour-charged audio-visual pieces are stimulating every sense. Titled Spear to Heaven, the installation comprises a four-channel video projection over a series of translucent drapes, arranged across the dark room. The usually psychedelic imagery of the artist thus becomes even more layered and complex, bringing the usual overlapping - a trademark of Rist’s aesthetic - outside into the physical space of the museum.
