Peter Lorenz, Innsbruck

"With the exhibition of the works of Peter Lorenz, AEDES EAST is presenting the champion of a new, contemporary architecture scene in Tirol. Between special urbane statements and the sensible intervention in the "heroic” Tirol landscape, the projects are multi-faceted. Not merely a West-Austrian, parochial perspective, but rather works which justify their place within the entire European context. Lisbeth Wächter Böhm

VIDEO INSTALLATION:     
SPACE SEDUCTION I + II A video installation to the theme perception. Two simultaneously-running videos – filmed processes of the experiences of the space. "The hypothesis is that a rationally dominated new time will be accompanied by an intuitive perceptive ability: three dimensional spaces are less recognizable with the benefit to two dimensional information. In all likelihood there is a connection between this change in the perceptive abilities and the crises of the cities, the lack of urban spaces and the underestimation of architectural quality. Thus one must consider whether a retracting ability to perceive three dimensional spaces (in nature and art) also has an effect on the three dimensional, complex thought processes of human beings...” Excerpt, Peter Lorenz.
