One moment \u2013 I say, now really entirely to myself in this empty room, for the sunlight is casting the shape of the windows on the walls and this is a moment when everything is filled with a \u201creddening pain flowing down the walls\u201d feeling of nostalgia and ephemeralness.

He did this between 1977 and 1980. These photos were made for the most part with a shutter camera. The shutter moves vertically, similarly to a window roller-blind (shutter), to allow the image of reality to be exposed for a moment on the film, very much like when we open our eyes for a moment and immediately shut them. At that time, the simplest way to develop and have prints made of colour negatives was to send them to the state-run photo company (which was the only such company). These small, colour photographs were generally printed on 9\u00d713<\/span>-centimetre paper. Palotai used black-and-white photographs which he himself developed, usually of a smaller size, and also smaller size Polaroids. With these photographs, he created sequences on a grid (square mesh) structure. Many people used various photographic technologies which were available at the time. These enthusiastic photographers did not, however, make grid structures out of their pictures. Rather, they strove primarily to play the part of the photographer-servant, as described by Vil\u00e9m Flusser. The photo series and image collections ushered in a break with this servant-like, consumer attitude.<\/p>\n

The so-called \u2018artistic photo,\u2019 however, was of course typical of this era as well, i.e. photos which captured some kind of drama (or melodrama) of a moment. That moment filled with nostalgia, sorrow, ephemeralness, or the necessity of material existence. I regard this too as a servant-like, consumer use of photography, primarily as a somewhat simplified, direct effect of Jan Dibbets.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” top_margin=”0″ bottom_margin=”0″ el_class=”box-l20″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none” offset=”vc_col-sm-offset-0″][divider line_type=”Small Line” line_alignment=”default” line_thickness=”4″ divider_color=”accent-color” custom_height=”20″ custom_line_width=”100″][vc_column_text]\n

This type of photo usage \u2013 according to many people \u2013 draws on two sources and is based on two things. One of them is the analysis and practice of the painter (the visual artist). The principle of this practice was formulated at the time by John Berger. In this case too, there is no melodrama. What is recreated is the light-and-shade, the colour and the form which creates the spectacle. The other source is the practice of scientific photography, to which Dibbets tied his work. Palotai first studied Dibbets\u2019 compositions at the exhibition entitled Seven Dutch Artists,<\/em>1<\/span> which was organized at the Budapest Kunsthalle. In this show, Dibbets created compositions which could not have been made using single photographs, but only with several images joined together. It is significant, however, that in these pictures, as in the case of Palotai\u2019s, something takes place between the pictures that would take place otherwise as well, because for example time, light, etc. change. A mosaic picture is created in which time is also present not as a player, but as a factor. I would like to compare works such as Dibbets\u2019 Panorama Dutch Mountain<\/em> from 1971 and Palotai\u2019s Glass House<\/em> from 1979.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” el_class=”box-l20″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none” offset=”vc_col-sm-offset-0″][divider line_type=”Small Line” line_alignment=”default” line_thickness=”4″ divider_color=”accent-color” custom_height=”20″ custom_line_width=”100″][vc_column_text]\n

In the case of Palotai,<\/span> visual narrative is a sort of \u2018non-melodramatic\u2019 image sequence. Essentially, it is the living figures, the position of objects and their relationship to one another that changes. In other words, we are not looking at a \u2018photographed theatre\u2019, not a frozen image of a melodrama, but at that which is visible, that which on its own summons a story, a mood. These pictures may be regarded as a continuation of J\u00fcrgen Klauke\u2019s series made in the mid-1970s. (Palotai: Video Art \u2013 1 Program,<\/em> 1978, and Paris Riots,<\/em> 1978, and Klauke: Die Lust zu Leben,<\/em> 1976, or Klauke: Self-performance,<\/em> 1975) Another point of departure is Klaus Rinke\u2019s photo sequences (such as Boden Wand, Ecke, Raum) made in the 1970s, as well as several of D\u00f3ra Maurer\u2019s photo series, such as the 1972 \u00e9tudes Reversible and Interchangeable Phases of Motion.<\/em><\/p>\n

One could add many figures to the examples and connections on which this contextualisation of Palotai\u2019s use of photography in the 1970s is based. What complements could be made to this type of photography in the future remains a question. What kind of photography should be regarded as a continuation of the former grid-type technique of placing individual images side by side? Attila Cs\u00f6rg\u0151\u2019s \u2018Orange Room\u2019 camera of 2009 or his M\u00f6bius Space<\/em> project? John Maeda\u2019s collages on the tiny iPod display? Like Fortune Cookie from 2007 or the various video walls of Lev Manovich\u2019s Big Picture<\/em>, a data-ocean which has been growing continuously since 2011?

It is not the quantity that he questions. Rather, he makes analogue generative piles alongside or after having done the photographs. They also record a great deal of quantities, but they are impersonal signs. He signals subtly that we should not take these changes too seriously, this domination of an inflated department-store abundance of visual products\/trash, because a drastic restauration might be just around the corner.
