It is always exciting to see how two personalities react to each other, artistically and then together in the exhibition space. The Kunstforum Montafon takes this into account with the current exhibition JUNCTIONS, curated by Roland Haas, and juxtaposes Nilbar Güres and Marlene Hausegger’s works. Nilbar Güres’ art fascinates with its unique poetic and humorous inventiveness, which always has a critical and political underside. In her photographs, collages, objects and videos, Güres tackles the clichés of the social visibility of women in various cultural fields. She creates and stages wittily challenging counter-images and figures in which she undermines the usual role categorisations. In contrast to other artists who need the solitude of the studio for the creative process, Marlene Hausegger relies on her nimble feet and muscle power to set her body in motion, to transport it from a ‘here’ to a ‘there’ or an ‘in-between’ and to perform a movement that is not committed to linearity or circularity, but flickers back and forth between emotion, idea, form and desire.
