Kurt Hentschläger: 'To Measure or not to Measure'

'Measure' by Kurt Hentschläger

Hentschläger’s Measure (2014) hovers between a realistic, documentary approach and a purely synthetic way of depicting landscape. The question is: how natural is this nature, and how natural is our experience of nature, now that mediated representations of the real world seem to outnumber direct perceptions, or rather, have become the new standard of direct perceptions. What is real, and what is to be understood as constructed and artificial? Are these dichotomies still meaningful when the real and the artificial have become so inextricable?
