Moca is having a retrospective exhibition of Martin Kippenberger. I went down today to see the part of exhibition at Geffen Contemporary which showed one of his piece, the happy end of franz kafka's Amerika. Inspired from unfinished novel of kafka, Kippenberg recreated one of the scene which the protagonist goes to an interview in oklahoma. The interpretation of it was a big room transformed into soccer field, filled up with facing chairs and tables to represent the moment of interview.. The installation was quite whimsical in a way, that the collection of facing chairs are not necessarily identical, but in different shapes and heights - Also the context of the football field highlighted the idea of competitiveness - even made me feel like watching a furniture competition..
Cool stuffs!
