“For this exhibition, we have brought together a diverse selection of artists who engage with photography in very specific ways. The exhibition is based on the principle of the Cadavre Exquis, or “exquisite corpse.” We begin with a randomly selected image. The next participant, guided only by a written description and a narrow strip of the image, contributes a new piece. In this way, the exhibition evolves work by work. While the added contributions will primarily consist of photographs, they may also include works from other disciplines or interpretations of the photographic medium.” (Text excerpt from the press release by courtesy of Axel Obiger)
