Die Zeichnungsserie “Anemic Archives” von Christos Venetis sind Zeichnungen höchster Präzision. Sie zeigt reale und imaginäre Szenen und Standbilder aus allen Bereichen des Lebens, die an ein Schwarz-Weiß-Fotoalbum oder einen stummen Dokumentarfilm erinnern. Mit dem Bleistift auf der Innenseite von Buchumschlägen ausgeführt werden die Buchdeckel, deren ursprünglicher narrativer Inhalt, die Buchseiten, entfernt wurde, zum Trägermedium neuer Geschichten: Werden die Zeichnungen als Installation in einer Reihe aufgestellt, entstehen weniger lineare, als vielmehr assoziative und unbewusste Erzählstränge. Das scheinbar nostalgische Bilder-Ensemble entwickelt einen eindringlichen, wenn nicht subversiven Unterton, der sich in manchmal schmerzhaft in unserem Bewusstsein festsetzt.
