Regarding Terror: The RAF Exhibition
Extended duration of the exhibition part in the church


After its highly successful first five weeks, we are pleased to announce that the exhibition part in St. Johannes Evangelist Church will be extended beyond its planned duration and continued until April 3, 2005.

We thank the parish of St. Johannes Evangelist Church as well as the artists for making this extension possible. The works of Klaus Mettig and camera silens were repeatedly described as particularly impressive by the media and public.

Klaus Mettig, from 1978 to 1981, on his own initiative, isolated and compiled pictures from the news. In a direct manner, he creates with 1-214/1978-81 (AND SUCH A PRESS OF PEOPLE, 1978-81) an artistic counterworld that draws from media images, but which also reflects them. Against the flow of the mass media, he points in this way to an appropriation strategy.

Olaf Arndt and Rob Moonen concern themselves in camera silens (1994) with researching vibration phenomena in given spaces. Here they refer to isolation possibilities in the modern penal system on the one side, but also show, on the other, a "black box" that fills with the phantasmal expectations of the viewer.

Please note that both exhibition venues will be open during the Easter holidays.

If you have any further questions do not hesitate to contact us!
