The exhibition and the catalogue deal with the topic of the staging of reality and replication and reconstruction in art, taking the example of Edward Hopper. The film "Shirley" addresses inter-alia the fact that Edward Hopper did not reproduce reality in his paintings, but instead combined individual set-pieces to create a fictional reality, a method that is also inherent in the medium of the film. In the course of the three-dimensional life-sized transformation of 13 Hopper paintings for the film, pictorial and sculptural artefacts were created that were combined into sets to produce the illusionist reality of the film.0The catalogue is a work of reference and a retrospective of the exhibition "Visions of Reality" by Gustav Deutsch and Hanna Schimek and the film "Shirley" by Gustav Deutsch. The catalogue consists on the one hand of text elements: "Topics of the film and the exhibition" by Brigitte Felderer, "Text on the film" by Olaf Möller and an interview with the director Gustav Deutsch and the painter Hanna Schimek, conducted by Thomas Edlinger, and on the other hand comprises an extensive pictorial section: photos, making of, storyboard, sketches, costumes, lighting sketches, painting sketches, furniture sketches etc
