About:
Guest Room is all about sparking creative collaboration. For this edition, Michael Grieve, Director of Werkstatt Fotografie in Berlin and ArtFotoMode, teams up with artist Rut Blees Luxemburg, a Professor of Urban Aesthetics at the Royal College of Art, and founder of FILET, a space for experimental art in London. Their theme for Guest Room is "Urban Exoticism." Urban Exoticism is a term coined by art historian Alia Tsagkari (www.aliatsagkari.com) and proposes an alternative concept to experience the urban environment. Can a heightened awareness of strange juxtapositions and semi-hidden places open up an uncanny perception of the city? Urban Exoticism as a visual language that values fragments, unexpected contrasts and elements obscured by everyday experience. This edition of Guest Room is looking for the concealed mysteries beneath the banal surfaces of the modern city, drawn from the realms of the exotic, the erotic and the unconscious.
