R.L. or the Queen of Saba: The portrait of the queen of Saba deals with the stark reality and ideal (wishful thinking) of projection and real object. The viewer, however, longs for this ideal moment of beauty and resembles Don Quixote himself…
Self-portrait case “Movie“: There‘s a small model railway in a suitcase. It travels endlessly in a circle. A tiny light bulb on a wagon with Kutscher‘s painted self-portrait projects the picture onto the wall. Randomly made up only of light and shadow and in constant motion, it is sometimes large, sometimes small. The artist: circling himself, and always on the move, never reaches his destination.
