Agnes Fuchs. Her Eyes Were Green

Agnes Fuchs employs painting, videos, and installations as means to reconfigure the scientific and technological instruments and processes that paved the way for contemporary digital technologies. Operating instructions, functional descriptions, and manuals for oscilloscopes, computers, power supply units, or measuring devices serve as the departure point for her work. By analyzing the cultural implications of these communication media, her artistic practice intervenes in a historical field as well as the afterimages it continues to produce today.The artist's book groups several conceptual, comprehensive series of images by the artist around two profound essays by the well-known cultural theorist Boris Groys and the curator Franz Thalmair.
