Florian Dombois, Christoph Oeschger: Movements of Air

Based on the breathtaking photographs taken by Étienne-Jules Marey between 1899 and 1901 in a wind tunnel he developed, two essays by Georges Didi-Huberman and Laurent Mannoni reflect on their technical and art historical significance. In their epilogue, the two artists Florian Dombois and Christoph Oeschger follow the "graphic" vortices of the last 120 years from the perspective of image-making in the form of a collage of historical and contemporary material, which they interweave with their own image production.

It gives voice to the concepts, forces, actors, artifacts, and happenings that have been operating around the Wind Tunnel by Florian Dombois and his research group at the ZHdK since 2012, and focuses on their yet open potentials.
