INGEBORG LÜSCHER - The Game Is Over

“The game is over”, George W. Bush proclaimed only weeks before the invasion of Iraq. Used by the artist Ingeborg Lüscher as the point of departure for a video installation of the same title, the propaganda slogan becomes the inverse through relentless repetition. Pristine landscapes stand in stark contrast to the horror of war and bear testament to the simultaneity of beauty and menace.

Curator Bärbel Vischer
