[Nettime-ro] Obsedanta Monumentalitate II / Haunting Monumentality II |
Dragi prieteni, vineri, 11 aprilie, sunteti invitati la Craiova pentru vernisajul expozitiei Haunting Monumentality II. Va asteptam *for English please scroll down* *Obsedanta Monumentalitate II- Imposibilitatea colectivului -* Artisti: Mihut Boscu Kafchin, Igor and Ivan Buharov, Csaba Kis Roka, Svatopluk Mikyta, Beatrix Szorenyi, Adam Ulbert curator: Aron Fenyvesi 11.04 - 24.05 2014 Vernisaj vineri, 11 aprilie, ora 19.00 Club Electroputere Craiova Calea Bucuresti nr. 56 "Obsedanta monumentalitate" a fost o expozitie de grup care a debutat la Berlin, in Galeria Plan B, in 2012. Inca de la prima editie, a promis sa devina un proiect curatorial de durata sau o serie, mai degraba decat o saga de expozitii. Ajunge acum intr-un stadiu nou de evolutie in cadrul Clubului Electroputere din Craiova. Prima expozitie a analizat relatia dintre practicile artei conceptuale orientate inspre obiect si monumentalitate si a abordat diferite forme de documentarism, care au parut initial a fi niste instrumente revolutionare, insa o data cu trecerea anilor au devenit de-a dreptul prizoniere ale didacticismului expozitional de genul "White Cube". Cea de-a doua editie concentreaza si sintetizeaza rezultatele primeia, dar se plaseaza si mai aproape de muchia cutitului. Seria aceasta de expozitii analizeaza mecanismele memoriei prin intermediul practicilor artistice ale expozantilor si a felului in care abstractiile lor cognitive, si implicit ale noastre, se manifesta in spatiu. Prima expozitie a pus sub semnul intrebarii existenta unei memorii colective bazata pe consens, cea de-a doua neaga deja o astfel de posibilitate si afirma mai degraba imposibilitatea unui consens total si colectiv, care sa poata fi mediat prin instrumente ale artei contemporane. In cadrul acestei expozitii, toate lucrarile sunt interpretate ca simboluri ale isteriei istoriei. Expozitia "Obsedanta monumetalitate" gazduita de Clubul Electroputere prezinta lucrari ale unor artisti in plina afirmare, originari din Europa centrala si rasariteana, care sunt cat mai putin statici si ecstatici posibil. Fundalul non-referential sau pe de-a-ntregul alchimic al lucrarilor prezentate, care pot fi intelese ca niste monumente efemere personale, private, uneori chiar psihedelice, incearca sa aiba un impact senzual asupra privitorilor. In acest fel, ele devin o altfel de prezenta fantomatica ce reactualizeaza functia monumentului intr-o era in care nu mai avem o cunoastere limpede si bine definita a adevarului si a moralei in societate, iar eventualitatea unor noi utopii emergente este exilata in singuratatea privatului. Acest proiect este realizat cu sprijinul Fundatiei ERSTE Parteneri: Teatrul de copii si tineret Colibri, illy ---- Haunting Monumentality II -The impossibility of the collective- Mihut Boscu Kafchin, Igor and Ivan Buharov, Csaba Kis Roka, Svatopluk Mikyta, Beatrix Szorenyi, Adam Ulbert curator: Áron Fenyvesi 11.04 - 24.05 2014 Opening Friday, April 11, 7 pm Club Electroputere Craiova 56 Calea Bucuresti Haunting Monumentality was a group exhibition which premiered in Galeria Plan B, Berlin in 2012. Since its first edition it emerged to become a long-term curatorial research project, or at least a circle, rather than a saga of exhibitions, now coming to its second stage of evolution in Club Electroputere, Craiova. The first exhibition examined the relation of contemporary object-based conceptual art practices and monumentality and tackled different forms of documentarism which first seemed to be revolutionary tools, but as years passed by, they simply became prisoners of the didacticism of white cubes. The second edition summarises and synthesizes the outcomes of the first, but walks even more towards the edge of the razor. The exhibition-series analyze the function of memory through the art practices of the exhibitors and how their, our cognitive abstraction becomes manifest in space. The first edition questioned the existence of a collective memory based on consensus, the second already negates such a possibility and rather declares the impossibility of any collective and total consensus which can be mediated through instruments of contemporary art. Within the frame of this exhibition all the pieces are interpreted as symbols of the hysteria of history. The Club Electroputere edition of Haunting Monumentality features works of emerging artists from the Central-Eastern-European region, which are as less static as and as ecstatic as possible. The non-referential or maximum alchemical background of the presented artworks, which can all be understood as personal, private, sometimes even psychedelic ephemeral monuments, tries to have a sensual approach on their viewers. Thus they become a new type of ghostly presence, which reenact the function of the monument in an age when we don't have much clear and definable knowledge left about truth and moral as a society, and the potential of new utopias on the rise is exiled to the desert of the private. This project has been realized with the support of ERSTE Foundation Partners: "Colibri" Children and Youth Theatre, illy _______________________________________________ Nettime-ro mailing list Nettime-ro@nettime.org http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-ro --> arhiva: http://amsterdam.nettime.org/
