"...This is certainly the case with ‘94960364 (RM) A Honeywell International Inc. commercial flight data record’, a photograph purchased from the Getty Images image bank of a black box juxtaposed with the technical desc<x>ription Getty supplies with the image. Rather than explaining the contents of the black box, the text comprises technical information about the two-dimensional image. In the first instance the work can be seen as a metaphor for the impossibility of extracting objective content from artworks. What is important here, however, is not so much the secret of the contents of the black box or the ‘objective’ technical desc<x>ription of the two-dimensional image, but rather the tension between the different components, the interspace in the work as a whole, which is circular and paradoxical in character..." excerpt from exhibition guide of Abstract History St. Lucas 2012 by Koen Sels - copyright Koen Sels 2012
