Both Events with Acordion-Music by Chieh-Ting Hsieh
This exhibition is dealing with the script forms of Chinese and Latin language that are written and / or printed. Typosphere (Typosphäre) aims to activate the dialogue between calligraphy and typography as well as drawing and print. It also presents a contemporary spectrum of script-/ imagery. This exhibition brings together eight artists from three different countries.
In this exhibition, the concept of script-/ imagery involves all senses: Anne Mundo’s abstract
drawings reveal her apprehension of the nuances between the calligrafic and graphic expressions. Alexander Behn presents his book- and letter- objects to set up his structural
argument on the physical and haptic qualities of letters. Bo-cheng Shen demonstrates the
cross-boundary effects of visual, audio and haptic stimuli as a whole in his Braille – sound -
installation. The tamtamART GROUP works on the interconnection between language and voice as well as script and imagery in a light-sound-installation. Chieh-Ting Hsieh translates the Chinese notation into his music. Furthermore, the typo-poetry of Julienne Jattiot, the calligraphic comics of Sebastian Russek and the reading installation of Yung-shan Tsou are also going to be presented in this exhibition.
