http://www.cultrd.tv - Mike Kelley: 1954 - 2012 - A Tribute Exhibition at the Watermill Center Including Works from the Kandor Project
curated by Harald Falckenberg - July 28 - Sept 16 2012
Mike Kelley: (1954 2012) fills the entire south wing of The Watermill Center. Falckenberg has selected soundtracks from "The Poetics", Kelley's art punk band in collaboration with Tony Oursler (1977-1983), and videos by Kelley (1978-1986). The various pieces, in different media, from the Kandor project (2000/2007/2011), include models and banners from the initial Kandor-Con 2000 installation, seven large-scale projections (2007), one of the sculptures with video projection of Kandor (2007) and Kelley's last performance video, Vice Anglais (2011).
The Kandor series, which Kelley initiated in 1999, are sculptural depictions of Superman's birthplace Kandor. The popular Superman story recounts the adventures of an alien being sent to Earth as a baby to escape the total destruction of his home planet Krypton. However, it turns out that Kandor was not, in fact, destroyed. Shrunk and bottled by a villain, the futuristic city was later rescued by Superman and protected under a bell jar in his santurary. The installation Kandor-Con 2000 was first presented in the millennium show at Kunstmuseum Bonn and later at the Technical University Berlin (2007), the Deichtorhallen Hamburg/Sammlung Falckenberg (2007), ZKM Karlsruhe (2008), the Shanghai Biennial (2008) and the Pompidou Center, Paris (2010). Kandor-Con 2000 is conceived and continued to develop as a work in progress. Throughout the exhibitions, architecture students built cardboard models of Kandor inspired by the original comics. These models were sent to Los Angeles where Kelley made scaled down casts. The cardboard models that will be shown at The Watermill Center were produced during the show at the Pompidou Center, Paris.
