Landscape with Landscape

group exhibition

04 Sep 2021 - 23 Oct 2021

Statement

The inspiration for the concept of her exhibition is the book Landscape with Landscape (1985) by the Australian author Gerald Murnane. Murnane lives in isolation in Goroke, a dusty former stagecoach station in south-eastern Australia. He writes enigmatic texts in which he puts his flow of thoughts on paper. For a long time, he was hardly noticed by the international literary world; only recently has a wider audience begun to take interest in his books. What fascinates Furter about Murnane's writing is that "his stories have no beginning or end. They seem like chapters of a larger whole, yet they are completely independent. They meander back and forth between reality and fiction – in them, boundaries and times become blurred. According to Murnane, "imaginations are also a kind of reality." Landscape is a metaphor for many things in Murnane's œuvre. Sometimes landscape refers to the surroundings in reality, other times to the world of fantasy, or to his own inner or outer world. Landscape can also mean soul. Murnane says in an interview: "The mind is a vast landscape. There’s always something left unsaid." In their complexity and construction, Murnane's texts are reminiscent of those of Italo Calvino, Raymond Carver or Jose Luis Borges, among others. Readers must constantly readjust to the semantics, to the mood of what is written.
