The attempt to bring the world into a visual order is the thematic starting point for Peter Hoiss‘ exhibition. His work is dedicated to the interplay of installation, photography, and perception. In his exhibition at the Kunstraum, he deals with the primary colors red, green, and blue in the analogue world as well as the representation of RGB as the primary color space in the digital world. In the (visual) objects and photographic works on display, the three-color theory is combined with a breakdown of color perception.
RGB provides the visual framework for the works in the exhibition. Peter Hoiss also makes reference to this within the archive space on the Kunstraum’s ground floor, which was created as part of the Kunstraum’s 50th Anniversary.
