Leiblichkeit & Sexualität

Votivkirche, Vienna, Austria, 2014
Curated by David Rastas

The first work encountered in the chapel is Rist’s video which elicits a feeling of terror and panic as she repeatedly shrieks an interpretation of Chris Isaak’s lyrics “I don’t want to fall in love!” Through the screeching, the viewer is fully immersed in layered meanings that include the fear of falling in love.
