The exhibition linked addresses the question concerning the relation between image (likeness) and reality. Images do not merely influence perception but at present virtually seem to take precedence over the act of seeing and in consequence essentially shape the construction of reality. Both Ines Hochgerner and Benedek Regős put forward fundamental questions regarding the “reality” of images, their effect and efficacy, and hence the mechanisms and auxiliary routines of visual culture as well. While Benedek Regős in his examination of the figure of the cartographer and land surveyor also raises the issue of the political implications of the image, Ines Hochgerner’s elliptical interrogations of images open up a media-ontological dimension.
