GALERIJA GREGOR PODNAR & ASSOCIATION DUM
present:
ATTILA CSORGO
Skin of Space
Opening Friday, 5 May at 8.00 p.m.

5 May - 24 June 2006

Galerija Gregor Podnar is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of Attile Csorgo, entitled Skin of Space

Peeled City consists of c-prints, drawings, and a paper object, and is closely linked to the Orange Space works. For Peeled City, Attila Csörgõ created a model of a New York skyscraper and then “peeled” it. This model was made of card paper, using a different color for each side. Changes in color on the peeled form also indicate changes in the direction of the peeling. “And so we can see the whole at once, which it was not possible to see before.” (A. C.) The present exhibition displays the larger version of the series, Peeled City II, with a surface area of 210 x 370 cm.

In addition, the artist has produced two new photographic works, Make love (2005/06) and Epicycles (2005/06), especially for the Skin of Space exhibition.

Based in Budapest, Attila Csörgõ took part in the 48th Venice Biennial in 1999 and the 8th Istanbul Biennial in 2003, as well as other well-known international events, and in 2004, he had a retrospective solo show at Kettle’s Yard in Cambridge, England. His work was first shown in Ljubljana in 1999 at the Galerija Škuc (along with work by Antal Lakner).
