In einen gebrannten Mangantonblock habe ich ein Piktogramm von Gerd Arntz eingekerbt. Seine Form ist streng und funktional, verk\u00f6rpert Besitz und Sicherheit. Doch die statische Ruhe des Tresors wird durchbrochen: das Bild ist von Fliegen bev\u00f6lkert, den klassischen Boten der Verg\u00e4nglichkeit. In der barocken Stilllebenmalerei deuteten sie auf den beginnenden Verfall hin, hier schwirren sie um das vermeintlich Unzerst\u00f6rbare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Der Tresor steht f\u00fcr den menschlichen Versuch, die Zeit anzuhalten und Werte zu konservieren, die Fliegen f\u00fcr die Natur und ihre unaufhaltbare Zersetzung. Ein Piktogramm, das in Otto Neuraths statistischer Bildsprache ISOTYPE Teil eines wissenschaftlichen Ordnungssystems ist, wird hier von der organischen Unordnung der Insekten belagert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vanitas: Wir k\u00f6nnen keine materiellen Werte festhalten, auch sie zerfallen zu Staub. Nichts bleibt au\u00dfer der Leere eines schwarzen Blocks, wenn die Fliegen weitergezogen sind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
