A Slit of the Rist



Lame. Guess I couldn't ResIST. Serious-Lame. No but the art was actually pretty cool.

If you are fortunate enough to visit the Museum Fur Moderne Kunst in Frankfurt, Germany you'll have to make it a point to swing by the ladies room. The middle stall features an intimate film experience by Swiss artist Pipilotti Rist. Upon shutting the stall door the lights flick off and a small circle of film is projected on the bathroom floor. The imagery was swirling and colorful as typical or Rist. A female figure in a green space. The imagery suggests nostalgia and longing, which is further enhanced by a faint audio track being played in the stall. There is something soothing about the location of the projection. I have always respected the intimacy of the bathroom as a space and am pleased to see it as a venue.

An Art Forum article notes that this is not the first time Rist has utilized the toilette as an exhibition space. In her piece Closet Circuit (2000), she placed an infrared camera inside the toilet bowl. The participant's could observe themselves going about their business on a monitor in front of the toilet.
If you make it past the ladies room you will have to make it a point to check out an awesome photography exhibit by Tayrn Simon. Really I can't shut up about it. And the rest of the Museum is excellent. I had never seen so many sculptures by Beuys before.
