Alexander Hidalgo and Monika Oechsler

at MOCA London

.

The now passed exhibition of Alexander Hidalgo and Monika Oechsler saw some great work on display. 
We have images below of their project together, with some accompanying words.
Held at the MOCA in London, you can still see more of their works via their website

About the Exhibition:
“The idea, then, is to replace the triumphant epiphany of meaning with a silent apophany of objects and their appearances”. (Baudrillard in Photography or the writing of Light)
Alexander Hidalgo and Monika Oechsler present new works in the exhibition that explore Baudrillard’s edict to mobilize photography’s immobility and silence in order to resist speed, to defy the overflow of images and the explosion of information. The exhibition presents work in different media including animation, photography, drawing, neon and text. Alex Hidalgo’s Pavilion 1 pays homage to modernist architecture. The large-scale drawing covers the whole of the galleries glass façade. Monika Oechsler’s Cold-Case-Titan-Homage-to-Baudrillard presents an animated, posthumous portrait of the philosopher.
