Kinematograficzne inscenizacje Jeffa Walla między dwiema przestrzeniami

Abstract
Drawing upon the Frantz Kafka’s visions of spaces and character named Odradek, the article seeks the ambiguities of photographic staging in modernist “neoformations” by Mies van der Rohe, implied depth and its meanings to reconstruct the significant features of photo conceptualism underlying Jeff Wall’s “cinematographic” mise-en-scène strategy. Exploring the pictorial effect of theatricalization, and absorption of the visual narrative, oscillating between arranged modernist spaces the argument put forth the nuances of Jeff Wall’s staged photographs, the inscription of the “minor” representative of the working class within the “warped space” of the photography entitled Morning Cleaning (1999). The heterogeneous, fragmentary arrangement allows the viewer to capture a divided space seen in many parts and together as an example of illustrating and valuing socially “invisible” people split between two “mediamorphic” spaces.
