AMSTERDAM.- The exhibition “Once Removed” at Seelevel Gallery is an open ended visual chitchat between Tania Theodorou, Adam Etmanski and the audience about the way they both approach meaning, photography, and the presentation of it in an original and idiosyncratic way. The Greek artist Tania Theodorou uses images and objects that already sustain evidence of significance or function. She attempts to set them loose, into a new context, and see to what kind of meaning they are able to attach themselves. She likes to see the process by which the very meaning of a work can take on different nuances. This leads to layered installations where the work is in a kind of open-ended conversation with itself and the audience. Adam Etmanski (1971) exhibited twice at Foam, the Photography Museum of Amsterdam; he also exhibited at projectspace Le Bal in Paris and during the festival Les Rencotre d’Arles in Arles (France) at W139 and at ACF in Amsterdam. He lives and works in Amsterdam.
