NO MEDIA BEYOND THIS POINT – this is Günther Selichar’s appeal to his audience to see consciously and critically the influence of media-mediated images or guided information. Using terms such as OBSERVING SYSTEMS or EMBEDDED [journalist], Selichar creates tags that define the theoretical framework for his examination of phenomena related to the mass media.
(…) In times when photographs are almost exclusively consumed as JPEGs on small displays, one level in Selichar’s work is particularly noteworthy: the materialization of photographs in complex production steps, with high-end reproduction processes and selected materials. They make the image a multidimensional work, in contrast to the one-dimensional JPEG on the screen. (Ruth Horak)
