my trip to Nanjing

 

My trip to Nanjing earlier this month for the occasion of the exhibition "On starting another

 

conversation about comparative feminism”, was despite my long time in China a unique

 

experience.

Pavlosv's dog PIN UP press release!

 

PIN UP ! 


Gruppenausstellung


 
Pin-Ups – Bilder von jungen, hübschen Frauen in mal mehr oder weniger erotischen Posen

 

(selten auch von Männern) wurden heimlich oder zumindest auf der Innenseite von Spinden,

 

Büchern, Schranktüren angebracht. 



Nicht an der Außenseite – nicht für jeden ersichtlich. Diese Bilder vergilben irgendwann,

 

kriegen Eselsohren, fallen ab. Sie werden Opfer der Zeit. Eines Prozesses.



Heute laden wir Bilder von uns in allen möglichen Posen selbst täglich in sozialen Medien

 

hoch. Wir prostituieren uns auf Facebook, Instagram und Pinterest . Wir pinnen „uns“ quasi

 

auf virtuelle Wände. Manchmal wollen wir auch wieder runter. Aber vergeblich. Das Netz

 

vergisst nicht. Im digitalen Langzeitgedächtnis bleibt alles und im digitalen

 

Kurzzeitgedächtnis werden im Sekundentakt neue Bilder ersichtlich. Zeit zum Altern bleibt

 

nicht. Die neue Art von Voyeurismus. Von jedem, für jeden, jederzeit.



Schlussendlich geht es aber allen diesen Bildern um Träume – geheime, sexuelle, verbotene.

Träume lassen sich schlecht nach politisch und gendermäßig korrekten Maßstäben beurteilen.



Pin-Ups verwirklichen diese Träume. Man kann sie nicht zensieren, denn Vorstellungen und

 

Phantasien sind frei – zumindest bis zur Umsetzung.

Ausstellung: 20. Februar bis 20. März 2015



Group exhibition


 
Pin-Ups – everyone knows these images of young, beautiful women (and sometimes, but

 

rarely men) in more or less erotic poses. These photographs have always been secretly

 

affixed to the inside of lockers, books or wardrobe doors – on the inside of course – not for

 

everyone to see. 



However, after a while, the photographs start to fade, they get dog-ears and eventually they

 

fall off. They fall victim to time – a process that is inevitable. 



In the times of social media we upload photographs of ourselves posing in all kind of ways

 

on a daily basis. We prostitute ourselves on facebook, instagram or pinterest etc. We “pin”

 

ourselves to virtual walls. Sometimes we would like to “un-pin” us – but unsuccessfully so:

 

Because the internet does not forget. Everything remains in the virtual long-term memory

 

whereas the virtual short-term memory is constantly filled with new images every second of

 

every day. There is no time to age, to fade. In this new form of voyeurism everyone looks at

 

everyone and is looked at by everyone all the time.



What all the images have in common though are the desires they represent: secret, sexual,

 

tabooed phantasies and it is hard to judge these dreams by political or gender sensitive

 

criteria.



Pin-ups are the realisation of these desires. One cannot censor them, as dreams and phantasies

 

and thoughts are free – that is until their realisation of course.
