Miriam Vlaming: Vertigo

Starting from the Icarus myth of antiquity, Miriam Vlaming (*1971) has created a new group of works in which she brings mankind's ancient dream of flying and freedom together with excessive human hubris: phantomlike figures move through dreamlike landscapes and scenery. In a dizzying frenzy, with a groundless pull into the close range and the farthest distance, Miriam Vlaming creates a fantastical pictorial world between presence and absence, history and present. The book contains the DVD Miriam Vlaming. Vor Tur und Wand (2018), a 40 minute film by Manuel Dorn. Text in English and German.
