Townhouse 10 Nabarawy St, off Champollion St, Downtown. Tel 2576 8086 *First Floor gallery "The Blue Flowers", Rundu-based researcher Immanuel Amunue's first solo exhibition. Questioning why abstraction recurs at certain pinnacle moments in western history, Amunue was especially intrigued by mid-20th century geometric abstraction in North and South America. He began copying the works himself based on digital images found through Google image search, both as a form of note-taking and out of a personal desire to experience the images in a material form. Amunue asked the gallery's staff to take the paintings into the desert, photograph them, and exhibit the resulting images, as well. He suggests that each iteration of the image (the inaccessible “original” painted by the artist, the digital image found on Google, his copy, his copy sitting in the desert, and finally the digital photograph of his copy sitting in the desert) is equally as real as any other version of the image (16 November - 17 December).
