Abstract

White Planet, Black Heart by Torbjørn Rødland steidlMACK Torbjørn Rødland is to photography what the Pet Shop Boys are to pop music: a master of the delicately orchestrated clichée overload, a surcharge of the too obvious, too cute or too inane, played to the point where the images are drained of all trace of common sense and suggest a new sense of silence or mystery. Rødland has a knack for producing images that make you ask what are, in fact, appropriate motives for art photography: Images of single audio or video cassettes? Bleak black and white renditions of countryside churches? George W. Bush's favourite ice cream? A black banana? Girls and pets, pets and girls? He creates a complex of readings that inveigles the viewer into spending time with each single image, to reconsider its meaning and relevance. White Planet, Black Heart makes no excuses as it reinvents the romantic impulses of popular culture. http://www.steidlville.com/books/382-White-Planet-Black-Heart.html (13/12/10)

Abstract

"The title of this new book from renowned photographer and book-maker Torbjørn Rødland suggests that the artist is looking for the divine in his sitters. If the child in Madonna and child paintings symbolises truth, then the pregnant virgin might represent a temporarily concealed truth – one masked or hidden behind compromised shells and failing bodies, young and old. The photographs in this arresting new collection negotiate surface and interiority and welcome tensions between contingent reality and archetypes, often uncannily recalling day-to-day life in intensely physical and opaquely allusive scenes. Constructed with characteristic precision and an instinct for surrealism and surprise, this sequence feeds on symbolism and visual texture in a sense reminiscent of classic ‘art’ photography or religious painting, but its self-conscious edge gives it a distinct and hard-to-fathom charge. With The Pregnant Virgin, Rødland explores analogue photography in dialogue both with online digital culture and visual art from before photography existed as a stable medium."--Publisher's website.

Abstract

Torbjørn Rødland constructs portraits, still lifes and landscapes, which simultaneously inhabit and defamiliarise the realm of the everyday. With a highly constructed and at times fetishistic approach to subjects, objects and materials, Rødland makes photographs that are formally acute, conceptually playful and psychologically evocative. Characterised by their double-edged allegories and underlying lyricism, Rødland’s staged scenarios ‘keep you in the process of looking’, revealing layers of discomfort and pleasure.&#13;&#13;This accompanying publication offers new and fresh lenses through which to view the Rødland’s work. Walead Beshty’s text, titled ‘Skin Flicks’, focuses on the artist’s unique approach to surfaces, Julie Boukobza considers a number of works in the exhibition by building fictive narratives around them, whilst Diane Nguyen stages a surreal and winding narrative performance through Rødland’s image repertoire. Bob Nickas’ essay, ‘Fifteen Years Later’ draws upon the experience of looking at Rødland’s photographs and provides a visual map of their complex system of symbols, signs and gestures. Highlighting the poetics of image-making that is intrinsic to Rødland’s approach, the publication also includes newly-commissioned works by esteemed poets, Stuart Krimko and Alice Notley.
