Fox, Vienna, 19.03. – 08.04.2017
my volcano erupts
Anna Hofbauer
only not for you
Clemens Roesch, 2017
(English by Douglas Deitemyer)
Nearly everything I know at this moment about “mein Vulkan bricht nur für dich nicht aus Anna Hofbauer,” everything I have seen and heard, came to me from two black cases: one is hand-sized and cannot be opened, the other is the size of a magazine and can be unfolded. On each of them, one of the surfaces is covered by a piece of glass that, through some tricks I do not understand, is illuminated from within, thus conveying to me ideas and impressions. I run the tip of my right index finger across the glass of the smaller case without being able to feel much. The glass is completely smooth – perhaps a bit of dust, grease, a small irritation caused by some dried fluid that my fingernail scratches away.
