"Arnold Dreyblatt's sculpture Innocent Questions raises a set of unpleasant
questions about the relationship between the rationalism that characterizes
modernity and genocide. The art work is installed at the entrance of what was
previously Vidkun Quisling's residence in Oslo during the German occupation
of Norway. […] The seemingly neutral and objective categorization underlying
the gathering of personal information is not just passive registration but produces
identity. It chisels out subjects that may be identified and quantified in the
next round." - Jan Ove Steihaug

The New York-born artist deals with our conception of a complex world increasingly
dominated by mass media.
Asking the question, if human perception and memory can live up to the information
offered, his video art plays games with our curiosity and will to decipher the
unknown. Our limits of apprehension are being tested, for example, by keeping
the pace of displayed words and images constantly too fast, so that the attempt
to make sense of a ?ood of information is bound to fail.

"One could speak perhaps of a rescuing of the ordinary and of the bureaucratic
in Dreyblatt's work, even as these are taken to a further extreme through their
own logic of fragmentation, listing, juxtaposition, and leveling. But "rescue"
would be the wrong word, since there is no real recovery here, either of the
individual, of a culture, or of Central and East Europe. What we are given,
through these traces, is a far more haunting glimpse of an absence. But to only
say this would be to ignore the fascination of all that we can now see in these
fragments, as they are released from serving solely as the standard elements
for constructing accounts of a life, and become the pieces of an exceptionally
challenging new book." - Jeffrey Wallen, Hampshire College
