Slanting Water, Attila Csörg. 1995, photograph.
Galerija Gregor Fodner, Ljuljana/Berlin, and collection Mark Cucek.
When I saw this photograph by Attila Csörg it instantly reminded me of the work I had seen by Alex Gawronski at Artspace on Tuesday. Gawronski’s installation was of two wooden boxes with a glass lid. They are hanging like a scale with different currencies of the same amount in each of them. Slanting Water is of two glasses of water on a turntable. When the glasses are spun around, the wind blows the water into abstract shapes. It looks like a city full of skyscrapers falling down. It’s surprising and entertaining to observe ordinary phenomena under extraordinary conditions.
