Abstract (English)

Exhibition catalogue featuring 18 contemporary artists working with photography, video, sculpture and installation. Brydon reflects on conflicting associations with "home" (homelessness, exile, nomadism, mortality, nostalgia, intimacy) and traces its etymology to reveal two main senses the word holds in modernity: as a physical place and a state of being. She interprets the artworks anthropologically. Karlinsky's descriptive analysis foregrounds the use of narrative in the show, and draws attention to themes of voyeurism, transformation, identity and relations between self/other and private/public. Biographical notes on the artists. List of works. 9 bibl. ref.
