Dalila Dalléas Bouzar - Topographie de la Terreur - Drawing - Painting - Sound
Music: Anka Hirsch (Cello)
Dalila Dalléas Bouzar (Algeria) dedicates her exhibition „topographie de la terreur“ to the urban areas of her biographic stations Berlin, Paris and Algiers.
She focusses on the apartment as a closed living space, which she – among other aspects - associates with terror, prison or maze. In the exhibition "topographie de la terreur", Dalléas Bouzar presents fictional ground plans of apartments as well as models and drawings of urban places that she associates with violence and suppression.
Dalila Dalléas Bouzar’s examination of the apartment gains another dimension with the series „The women of Algiers in their chamber (according to Delacroix)”. Here she reflects the intimate view of Delacroix, which he, as a western male visitor, once rendered on this enclosed world. Dalila Dalléas Bouzar has adopted this alien view and now opens up her version of the famous painting to us, this time as a view from inside.
