Sander Breure & Witte van Hulzen – Open Air (excerpt) installation view
 

You are cordially invited to come and see ‘Open Air’ by Sander Breure & Witte van Hulzen. They show an impressive sculptural installation based on The Tomb of the Diver (ca. 470 [removed]) in Paestum, Italy. That tomb contains a number of frescos revolving around a symposium scene – people reclining on tables, with wine and musical instruments – and appearing on the tomb’s cover is a depiction of a figure diving into [removed];The diver of Breure and Van Hulzen is heading towards the open air. The artists connected the space of the gallery to that of the street by way of a simple gesture, a gesture with major consequences. The existing boundary between ‘private’ and ‘public’ suddenly drops away, and this puts pressure on the very notion as to what a gallery is. The notorious high threshold has vanished, just as the gallerists have. The gallery turns out to be a dramaturgical construction which is being analyzed by the artists on the basis of the notions ‘presence’ and ‘absence’. As such Open Air follows a tradition of exhibitions which, by way of their physical intervention in the space, raise philosophical questions about art’s relationship to the world. As Charles Causly wrote in his poem Eden Rock:
‘They beckon to me from the other [removed];
I hear them call, ‘See where the stream-path is! 
Crossing is not as hard as you might think.’
