The Kunsthaus Bregenz and the British artist <strong>Antony</strong> <strong>Gormley</strong> (born<br />
in 1950) are realizing a unique project in the mountains of Vorarlberg.<br />
<strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> will be the first art project of its kind erected in the<br />
mountains and the largest landscape inter vention in Austria to date.<br />
<strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> consists of 100 lifesize, solid cast iron figures of the<br />
human body spread over an area of 150 square kilometers in the<br />
communities of Mellau, Schoppernau, Schröcken, Warth, Mittelberg,<br />
Lech, Klösterle, and Dalaas. The work forms a horizontal line at 2,039<br />
meters above sea level. This height has no specific metaphorical or<br />
thematic relevance in the placement of the figures. It is an altitude<br />
that is readily accessible but, at the same time, lies beyond the realm<br />
of ever yday life. Some of the figures will be installed in places one<br />
can hike to or ski past in the winter. Others will be unapproachable<br />
though visible from certain vantage points. The works are neither<br />
representations (statues) nor symbols, but represent the place where<br />
a human being once was, and where any human being could be.<br />
<strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> engages the physical, perceptual, and imaginative<br />
responses of anyone coming within its relational field. Over the 2<br />
years during which this installation will be in place, the work will be<br />
exposed to the elements, to different lighting conditions, and to the<br />
changing seasons, thus enabling constantly new perceptions and<br />
impressions.<br />
<strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong><br />
<strong>Antony</strong> <strong>Gormley</strong>’s radical actuality as an artist derives from his<br />
desire to place an apparently completed classical theme, the<br />
human figure, into a new, universal context. Since the 1980s, when<br />
<strong>Gormley</strong> created the foundations for his oeuvre with figures cast<br />
from his own body in lead and iron, his principal concern has been<br />
to open up new artistic and social realms through a wide range of<br />
strategies.<br />
Going beyond the mere search for a further chapter in aesthetic<br />
investigations of form, <strong>Gormley</strong> is constantly preoccupied with the<br />
role of the human being–as an individual or mass and as a social<br />
being–and with its simultaneous role as object and subject represented<br />
by his sculptures. By reducing the human form to a trace or<br />
index, <strong>Gormley</strong> is able to release his figures from the bounds of traditional<br />
sculpture, set up on plinths in self-contained isolation and<br />
in accordance with their perceived function. He exposes his figures<br />
to modern perceptions of life, art, and space. Chief among these<br />
are a critical engagement with mass as a constitutive formal and<br />
emotional element of sculpture, an exploration of the sculptural<br />
and existential significance of space in contained and extended<br />
modes and, finally, the crucial issue (of special significance in the<br />
artist’s landscape projects) of human jeopardy and self-assertion<br />
in the world. <strong>Gormley</strong>’s art revolves around these three concerns,<br />
each of which varies in importance from work to work but is always<br />
present, if only latently.<br />
<strong>KUB</strong><strong>Projekt</strong> <strong>Antony</strong> <strong>Gormley</strong>
His projects with and in the context of urban and natural landscapes<br />
in particular show his attempt to extend the radical approaches<br />
of early Land Art from the 1960s and 1970s into a new dimension.<br />
Even though there are many isolated sculptural interventions by<br />
<strong>Gormley</strong>, measured against his own ideas, the great “field experiments”<br />
comprising multiple figures represent the real challenge.<br />
These consist of three key types: the first, the <strong>Field</strong> series, is<br />
involved with the idea of a mass of figures immeasurably potentiated,<br />
emanating from the social commitment of many lay-people<br />
to the production of the figures. The second, Event <strong>Horizon</strong>, works<br />
with a defined number of castings of the artist’s body sited in individual<br />
contexts. These figures link specific locations on buildings<br />
in a city and interact with an urban network. With <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong>,<br />
the third concept, starting with Another Place (1997), continuing<br />
with Inside Australia (2002) and Time <strong>Horizon</strong> (2006), <strong>Gormley</strong> proposes<br />
that critical engagement does not take place in value-neutral<br />
spaces of art determined by aesthetic laws, such as museums,<br />
galleries, and public places, but in and with nature. <strong>Gormley</strong> thus<br />
situates his work within a context that is meaningful for ever y individual,<br />
where beauty and the sublime are paired with the knowledge<br />
that nature’s resources are in danger of being exhausted at<br />
an ever faster rate.<br />
Another Place and <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> demonstrate <strong>Gormley</strong>’s strategic,<br />
conceptual thinking. The few rules that define the artistic system<br />
are decisive, opening up time to a multiplicity of planes for seeing,<br />
thinking, and interrelating. These include the relationship between<br />
the individual figure and the series; between constructed space<br />
and natural space; and between the factors of movement and time.<br />
The multilateralism of a mass exponentiated into a series tends<br />
toward a dissolution of the center and is thus an important factor in<br />
the democratization of the relations between space, sculpture,<br />
and viewer. <strong>Gormley</strong> has always been fascinated by this since it<br />
gives him the opportunity to extend his work into the open spaces<br />
of nature. <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> presents a bold attempt to bring art and<br />
nature into a state of empathy. The idea of installing 100 figures at<br />
a height of 2,039 meters is captivating, not so much as a logistical<br />
challenge, but as a vision of a large-scale experiment to conceive<br />
of art and culture as an integral part of nature and to encourage a<br />
revised awareness about our role as cultural beings. <strong>Gormley</strong>’s<br />
<strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> unites all his basic artistic concerns on a large scale.<br />
Removed from the influential context of a museum, it opens up new<br />
fields of interrelations by locating art in a socialized natural landscape.<br />
The mountain landscape of Vorarlberg, with its specific mix<br />
of natural beauty, urbanity, and socialization of old valley communities,<br />
is for <strong>Gormley</strong> the ideal experimental field for a new determination<br />
of the relationship between nature and culture.<br />
A comparison with the work of an earlier artist will make clear the<br />
paradigm shift accomplished by <strong>Gormley</strong>. Walter De Maria’s Land<br />

terms the autonomy of art and, by extension, of all culture. The<br />
Lightning <strong>Field</strong> lies at a height of 2,195 meters on a plateau in<br />
west-central New Mexico. It consists of 400 polished, stainless<br />
steel poles, 5.2 centimeters thick and 6.2 meters long, placed<br />
6.7 meters apart to stake out a grid measuring a mile on one axis<br />
and a kilometer on the other. The poles are arranged so that their<br />
tips define an absolutely level plane, echoing the terrain. Nature<br />
here forms a grandiose backdrop for a demonstration of sublimity,<br />
evoked by the machine-made uniformity and beauty of the poles<br />
and by the mathematical exactitude of the grid. The work represents<br />
an act of unconditional freedom and self-assertion on the<br />
part of art vis-à-vis nature, made visible through the serial anonymity<br />
of the poles and their ordered configuration. The spectator<br />
experiences a value-free coexistence of two systems, their individual<br />
beauty enhanced by the dramatic form of their conjunction.<br />
With his work, De Maria increased awareness of the sublimity of<br />
a self-contained system called “art” by heightening its logical<br />
consistency through confrontation with nature.<br />
In contrast, <strong>Gormley</strong> integrates and almost loses his human shaped<br />
masses within a field determined by a given topography that links<br />
the palpable, the perceivable, and the conceptual in a seamless<br />
way. He aims to address issues relating to natural freedom and<br />
social embedment. Each of his 100 figures embodies a striving<br />
for both individuality and society. They face in ever y direction, but<br />
never towards one another. The distance between them, which<br />
varies according to the terrain, ranges from 60 meters to several<br />
kilometers. Together, they form a horizon that can be apprehended<br />

visually in separate sections and mentally as a whole, engaging the<br />
viewer’s capacity for both physical and imaginative perception.<br />
<strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> does not aim to show humanity at the mercy of an<br />
omnipotent divine order, in the way familiar from some medieval<br />
images; neither does it seek to evoke the potential sublimity of<br />
socialized individuals in the isolated contemplation of natural<br />
sublimity, in the Romantic manner of a Caspar David Friedrich,<br />
or to establish an ideal artistic order in distinction to nature à la<br />
De Maria. Instead, <strong>Gormley</strong> literally comes down to earth in his<br />
project, to the reality of post-industrial landscape and society.<br />
But in no way has he lost sight of his original vision, which he<br />
describes thus: “<strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> is a clear indicator of a paradigm<br />
shift in art; that Culture which always used to be seen in distinction<br />
to Nature now has to be seen as integral to it (…). As with much of<br />
my work, <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> asks an open question as to where the<br />
human project fits within the evolution of life on this planet. (…) It<br />
asks basic questions: who are we, what are we, where do we come<br />
from and to where are we headed? The work does this by engaging<br />
the physical, perceptual, and imaginative responses of anyone<br />
coming within its relational field.”*<br />

<strong>Antony</strong> <strong>Gormley</strong> <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong><br />
Der für seine spektakulären <strong>Projekt</strong>e in archetypischen Naturlandschaften<br />
bekannte <strong>Antony</strong> <strong>Gormley</strong> realisiert sein jüngstes<br />
Werk <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> in der Region des Bregenzerwaldes und des<br />
Arlbergs. <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> stellt eine Beziehung zwischen dem Greifbaren,<br />
dem Wahrnehmbaren und dem Vorstellbaren her. Die Arbeit<br />
wirft die Frage auf, wie die Pläne der Menschen zur Evolution des<br />
Lebens auf diesem Planeten passen, und thematisiert den kulturellen,<br />
natürlichen und historischen Hintergrund einer Landschaft.<br />
Vor allem diesen Aspekt greifen die Autoren des Katalogbuchs –<br />
Martin Seel, Beat Wyss und Eckhard Schneider – aus unterschiedlichen<br />
Perspektiven auf und verorten dieses singuläre Werk in der<br />
zeitgenössischen Ästhetik. Großzügig präsentierte Aufnahmen<br />
der Landschaftsinstallation und Abbildungen früherer Werke des<br />
Künstlers begleiten die Essays.<br />
<strong>Antony</strong> <strong>Gormley</strong>, famous for his spectacular projects in archetypal<br />
natural landscapes, is realizing his latest work <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> in the<br />
Bregenzerwald and Arlberg regions. <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> sets up a relationship<br />
between the palpable, the perceivable and the imaginable.<br />
The work questions where the human project fits within the evolution<br />
of life on this planet and addresses the cultural, natural, and<br />
historical background of a landscape. It is above all this aspect that<br />
the authors of this catalogue–Eckhard Schneider, Martin Seel, and<br />
Beat Wyss–examine from different perspectives, positioning this<br />
unique work within the field of contemporar y aesthetics. Accompanying<br />
the essays will be sweeping photographs of the landscape<br />
installation alongside images of the artist’s previous works.<br />

<strong>KUB</strong>’s Projects in the <strong>Field</strong><br />
With its exhibitions and projects the <strong>KUB</strong> addresses current challenges<br />
in the international art scene. Moreover, its work and especially<br />
its projects in Vorarlberg contribute strongly to promoting the<br />
cultural identity of the region. Former field projects in Vorarlberg<br />
included Anish Kapoor (2003), Jenny Holzer (2004), Janet Cardiff<br />
(2005), and Michael Craig-Martin (2006) in the Johanniterkirche<br />
in Feldkirch, as well as Gottfried Bechtold’s work at the Silvretta<br />
Dam—Signatur 02—, which the <strong>KUB</strong> has since purchased for its<br />
collection, and the xenon projections by the American artist Jenny<br />
Holzer (2004). The latter consisted of a series of large-format<br />
texts which the artist projected onto architectural and natural<br />
monuments (e. g. the Old Parish Church in Lech or the rock face<br />
Kanisfluh). With Inside the Work, the Kunsthaus Bregenz presented<br />
itself as an institution in an international context at the Austrian<br />
Cultural Forum in New York in 2005.<br />
The project <strong>Horizon</strong> <strong>Field</strong> is in keeping with the <strong>KUB</strong>’s series of<br />
already initiated artistic interventions in public space in Vorarlberg<br />
and, at the same time, represents a climax because this field<br />
of figures is being installed in one of Vorarlberg’s most beautiful<br />
landscapes.
