In Marko Lehanka’s terms, anyone coming into the exhibition space is confronted with an image. This image opens up a space for thought. In his new work, Nutzfahrzeuge 2005 (Commercial Vehicles), we find apparatus for transmitting motion, planes, boats or trains such as the Triebwagen Transsib – devices often crafted by the artist himself, which, whilst certainly having idiosyncratic proportions, in all probability do indeed function. These are calculatedly improvised constructions advancing precisely this effect: means of transport, spatial communication media capable of transposing the viewer into the lived and conceived space, conveying an action and shifting frames of reference.
