Studio 4 presents the site-specific show “PRIVATE DOMAIN HAS ALWAYS BEEN TRULY PUBLIC”, curated by Andreas Fakis.
Contemporary artists who work on public domain come from varied fields, accompanied with contrasting creative backgrounds. Public artists with an “urban”, street oriented background can be recognised for their inventiveness and repetitiveness, which contributes in rendering their very own visual language and personal identity in public domain, a theoretically unconstrained environment that can be accessed by anyone at anytime.
Public artists can be recognised for the spontaneity with which they “overtake” public, private or unclaimed property, without necessarily devoting attention to any theory on ownership or permission. Instead of ownership or permission theories, space structure, space morphology, space state and space location form some of the main considerations and location assessment criteria for the artist.
“PRIVATE DOMAIN HAS ALWAYS BEEN TRULY PUBLIC” examines the human relationship with space and the criteria that lead human entities into rendering a space as private, public, or simply as an area, regardless of ownership.
D!, employees specific practises to express his viewpoint. His works form a captivating typographic and copywriting examination, as he has chosen to “restrain” his vocabulary by using only “D” verbs in his work. D!’s long existing relation with letter-forms in addition to the look and feel of his works makes clear that anything can be portrayed effectively typographically, thus negating the long-ago established “power” of a picture, equal to a thousand words.
