Underdog‘s new solo show is coming this Friday night, the 12th of September. Artist Clemens Behr takes over the gallery to bring new pieces to his exhibition “Samples and variations”.
Samples and Variations can be seen as part of a bigger quest, a sample of the work Clemens Behr has been developing over the years refined here as an experimental form of research into issues such as representation and creation based on the timeless practice of appropriation. While paying particular respect to hip hop culture and the widespread contemporary practice of sampling, reusing and rearranging other source materials which it gave rise to, the artist is to create here what is both “a celebration and a critical review” of the motives behind it.
