The exhibition:
Violence and death are everywhere in the media. However, direct contact with the dead is avoided in our society. The corpse has been firmly banished from our view and replaced by a new system of rituals and symbols that mediate the finiteness of human existence. Thus, for example, the skull has evolved from a sub-cultural emblem to an elegant mainstream fashion accessory. In other places and cultures a more direct contact with the dead can be found; here, a greater amount of ritual compensates for this directness. Repression, catharsis, devaluation of symbols, metaphorisation, the invention of substitute rituals, neutralisation, black humour and other means are re-used in new ways in order to deal with our natural awkwardness when faced with the idea of death and above all with the dead body.
Death is an ancient and universal theme in art. The fear of death and the desire to see/understand are the most important impulses in human action and thought; in fact, they are the origin of human culture. Two extremes are found in contemporary art: ritual, which had been abandoned by religion to service industry professionals or the media, has been reclaimed for art and restaged and reconstructed using the methods of art; alternatively, some artists have brought the unwelcome corpse back into view and they demonstrate to us in an often direct – indeed intentionally crude – fashion that (physical) existence (also) continues after death.
Contemporary art confirms that death is ‘in’ again. Academic interest in the topic of dying, death and funerary practice has also increased strikingly in recent years. The newly-awakened interest of art, popular culture and academia in death is a sign that this topic is no longer being repressed and that ‘a new visibility of death’ has developed.
Six feet under brings together works from different centuries from the collection of the Kunstmuseum Bern, loans from other institutions and artists as well as works created specially for the exhibition. The main focus however is on contemporary art from different continents and cultures: Europe, America, Mexico, China, Japan, Thailand, India and Ghana.
The exhibition is divided into 6 chapters titled: “Corpses, Skulls and Skeletons”, “Bodies, Burials and Bereavement”, “Homage: The Beloved and Revered Dead”, “The Artist’s Death”, “Death and Lifestyle” and “Afterlife” and curated by Bernhard Fibicher and Susanne Friedli.
Curator: Bernhard Fibicher.
