註釋"Alfredo Jaar - The way it is. An Aesthetics of Resistance - the title of the show on view in the spaces of NGBK, Berlinische Galerie and Alte Nationalgalerie - refers to two projects that Alfredo Jaar realised in Berlin in the early 1990s. It makes reference to the artistic intervention "Eine Ästhetik zum Widerstand" ("The Aethetics of Resistance") that Jaar presented at the Pergamonmuseum in 1992/93 (organised by NGBK in cooperation with DAAD). It also alludes to another intervention titled "The Way It Was" that the artist created in 1991 in an empty ground-floor flat in Berlin (in the frame of the show "Heimat", organised by Galerie Wewerka & Weiss). Both projects can be regarded as brilliant examples of Alfredo Jaar's interest in contemporary history and the possibilities and limitations of image and text systems. In his practice, Jaar highlights the discrepancy between real and reflected space. The path that visitors now have to take between the three exhibition venues and the time that passes before the next encounter with Jaar's works sharpen the art-goers' ability to relate the artists pictorial solutions and themes to their own present. This allows experiencing in a reflected manner the seriousness, idiosyncrasy and determination of Alfredo Jaar's works"--Gallery website.
