It is also a quote on the older work <a href=\"http:\/\/www.johannasmiatek.com\/en\/arbeiten\/blow-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Kabine \u2013 Blow Up\u00a0<\/em>from 2007<\/a><br \/>\nand \u00a0&#8220;&#8230;.. the reference to a cinematic masterpiece entitled &#8220;Blow Up&#8221;, lending itself to an extended field of interpretation. The film, directed by Michelangelo Antonioni in 1966, is set in London\u00b4s fashion scene. A photographer believes he has documented a murder with his camera, which he nevertheless cannot prove. His doubts grow so strong that in the end, he questions the distinction between fiction and reality.<br \/>\n&#8230; Like many of Johanna Smiatek\u00b4s kinetic sculptures, this piece is a reference to the power of projection with which we imbue artifacts and lend them life.&#8221; (quote Mark Wellmann).<\/p>\n<p>As in the film of the same name, the work does not reveal itself at first glance. Mysterious and closed appears the flat box, in which a kind of peephole is worked in, with a special mirror glass. When you approach it, you first see only your own eye reflected in the glass surface. But if you look directly into it, you can see the two words &#8220;Blow Up&#8221; through a magnifying glass with a high magnification factor. Actually tiny, printed in 3 point font and barely visible to the naked eye, the words are blown up hugely.<br \/>\nSimilar to the movie &#8220;Blow Up&#8221;, a tiny detail is magnified very much and gets a big meaning.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Blow Up II<\/span>, 2019<br \/>\nPainted wood, spy mirror glass, magnifying optics, LED lighting<br \/>\nW\u00fcrttembergischer Kunstverein Stuttgart, 2019<br \/>\n\u00a9 Johanna Smiatek, 2019\/2021<br \/>\nFilm and editing: Johanna Smiatek<br \/>\nPhotos: J.
