Chris Cornish, Franziska Furter: Fleeting Here
galerie schleicher+lange presents Fleeting Here, a juxtaposition of works by Franziska Furter (*1972, Switzerland) and Chris Cornish (*1979, United Kingdom). The works of the two artists interact spontaneously via the appropriation of both traditional and technological techniques – drawing, on one end of the scale, and computer graphics on the other. By going beyond the language of the mediums in which they work, the two artists deal with images in their own space-time, in their capacity to infer the movement of life, and in relation to certain notions of the nature of the world and of mankind.
