From One image Another
The Dutch photographer Christopher Roxs (Sankt Vith, 1994, lives and works in Stavelot) captures parallel moments, intimate views that reflect different perspectives on the shooting of the film Miss Marx(*). His approach transcends the mere evocation of backstage atmosphere and brings to light impressions that appear to be seemingly meaningless within the context of the film industry. He adopts a discreet and humble photographic style that allows the viewer to penetrate with extraordinary force the image reduced to its essence. His aesthetic vision encompasses both the impressions of a film shoot and the experiences of men and women who have existed and who are still important today.
Miss Marx ? Eleanor Marx (London 1855-1898), that is. The translator and publisher of Capital, a militant who stood at the opposite end of the salon socialist theorists, a feminist intellectual with a life of glory and disaster and the ardent spokeswoman for Marxism on the grounds of the United Kingdom's booming manufacturing industry.
By way of counterpoint, three artists present their vision on the battles waged by Karl Marx's youngest daughter. Andrea Radermacher-Mennicken (Eupen,1964) explores the complex personality of Eleanor Marx. This multidisciplinary artist presents a series of works created out of materials that are marked by daily use, archetypes that belong to the feminine domain which she gives an alternative transgressive life without any loss of poetic power.
