TOTAL REFUSAL solo exhibition of Leonhard Müllner, Robin Klengel in collaboration with Michael STUMPF opens on Thursday, August 2, 2018 at 8pm at the PM Gallery of the Home of the Croatian Association of Artists.
As artists state the vast majority of contemporary video games is characterized by combative gameplay.
This seems especially remarkable now that video games have long arrived in the entertainment mainstream and have managed to drop the boys room stigmata.
With gaming becoming both commercially and culturally more and more relevant, the question arises how artists can modify and make use of this media for their own purposes. In “Total Refusal”, artists Robin Klengel, Leonhard Müllner and Michael Stumpf aim to peacefully appropriate the existing mechanics of digital gaming media in order to find new use for their virtual combat zones. As such, “Total Refusal” is a pacifistic statement, realized with martial means.
