Bilder in Bildern. Endogramme von Eggs & Bitschin

Author(s): Gliemann, Claudia

Abstract

The work of the Swiss artists Eggs & Bitschin concentrates on the ›inner recordings‹ of pictures. They look into the interior of pictures, descend into their depth, focus on details that can not be perceived when walking by. The zoom is their tool. Endograms are what they call the pictures developed from ›looking inside‹, which they do not treat as paintings but use as windows or place as sculptures. The article reflects upon the pictures from pictures by Eggs & Bitschin in relationship to Jan van Eycks MARRIAGE OF GIOVANNI ARNOLFINI, Michelangelo Antonioni’s film BLOW UP, Dan Flavin’s works in fluorescent light as well as Georgia O’ Keeffes floral pictures.
