During his residency at the MQ, Charlemagne Palestine designs the 6th exhibition in the TONSPUR_display | Schauraum TONSPUR Kunstverein Wien, which opens in 2022. Palestine’s expansive installations and environments with a multitude of stuffed and plush animals are unmistakable. The artist calls these divinities.
With “““MiniMeshuggahhTonspurLaandtttt!!!””” the pioneer of minimal music, who nevertheless refuses this label and claims the concept of maximalism for his music, already created an unforgettable sound installation in 2016 as a contribution to the TONSPUR_collection. The two unmistakable disco balls of the TONSPUR_passage are still reminiscent of the impressive TONSPUR 72, which, beyond sound, was the only installation to date that also contained visual, pictorial elements. The eight loudspeakers of the sound space, for example, were individualized with colorful scarves and bandanas. And the white boxes were even stylized into sounding heads and faces by means of glued-on pieces of black felt.
