SUMMARY:WHAT GOES AROUND COMES BACK AROUND
DESCRIPTION:WHAT GOES AROUND COMES BACK AROUND\, a duo exhibitionw/ Camille Soulat & Naïa Combary\, curated by Myriam Mokdes  at VOITURE 14 \n\n\n\nOpening January 76pm – 10 pm \n\n\n\nElectro-acoustic Ambient live w/ Rgz cp & Rubie  \n\n\n\nThe finissage will be held on January 29 with a piano live by Pablo Altar \n\n\n\n⭑ \n\n\n\nLe duo nous plonge dans la nostalgie et l’intensité des premières fois à travers l’ambivalence des émotions qui nous habitent et des limites à dépasser pour se construire tel qu’on est. Le refrain d’une chanson pop qu’on écoute encore\, un souvenir qui se répète\, et toutes ces expériences vécues dont on parcourt à présent les effets.Entre magie et réalité virtuelle\, l’exposition WHAT GOES AROUND COMES BACK AROUND explore ces âges vulnérables et les interfaces rituelles avec lesquelles ils communiquent. \n\n\n\n⭑ \n\n\n\nCamille Soulat grandit à Montluçon\, autodidacte elle utilise des médiums comme la peinture numérique\, l’écriture et l’installation vidéo.Sa pratique s’articule autour d’une forme intime de narration. Elle se concentre sur des sujets et des scènes nostalgiques avec des nuances super/naturelles. Intéressée par des notions telles que la marginalité\, la culture geek\, les avatars\, elle oriente sa pratique autour d’une interprétation et d’une célébration des codes associés à la fois à la culture pop et à la contre-culture. \n\n\n\n⭑ \n\n\n\nNaïa Combary est une réalisatrice et une artiste pluridisciplinaire diplômée des Arts Décoratifs de Paris. Son travail consiste à faire de la magie à travers divers médiums\, elle explore des notions comme le rituel\, la spiritualité\, le rapport au temps et aux éléments. En mélangeant des techniques de retouches graphiques à ses prises de vue\, elle propose des images aux allures d’énigmes et d’hallucinations.

SUMMARY:Post-digital Intimacy
DESCRIPTION:The touchscreen is what we hold in our hand most often and usually the first thing we reach for right after waking up. Technology and intimacy\, two traditionally antithetical areas\, are nowadays interconnected\, both having transformed each other. In the everyday\, technology has infiltrated our privacy. It has become the object of our notion and desire\, our interlocutor and crutch\, but also a dangerous confidant.The exhibition deals with how\, after a virtual experience\, further emphasized by a pandemic situation\, the concept of our privacy and intimacy has changed and what effect it has on our close relationships. Through the work of nine young artists\, it questions whether further development is bound for the likes of dystopian sci-fi or whether virtual interconnectedness can actually help us solve some of the burning issues of the world today. \n\n\n\nNine contemporary artists – Darja Bajagić\, Ivana Bašić\, Louisa Gagliardi\, Lola Gonzàlez\, Daiga Grantina\, Rachel Maclean\, Pakui Hardware\, Viktor Timofeev and Tenant of Culture – will give you an insight into the nebulous visions of closeness in the post-digital world. \n\n\n\nTrade Fair Palace\, mezzaninCurator: Michal Novotný \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPoster by Simon Kounovsky

SUMMARY:THE EDGE EFFECT
DESCRIPTION:In the world of ecology\, an ecotone is a transitional area where two different ecosystems meet\, mix and merge. The effect of this mix is an increase in biodiversity\, as well as the density and uniqueness of organisms\, and the mutual influence between the two ecosystems is called the “edge effect”. \n\n\n\nThis is the perfect metaphor of what is happening throughout society as it pertains to our perceptions and ideas of identity. While the tension between localism and globalization\, between a virtual existence without borders or frontiers and an increasingly fragmented social and political reality is radicalized\, the artistic practice is increasingly becoming a place and space to reflect on the concept of belonging and its varying definitions. \n\n\n\nThe artists on display\, each in their own way\, showcase many variations of contemporary Italian identity. Some do it from an exquisitely biographical point of view\, others through a visual dialogue\, while others write their stories by way of an exploration of fashion or digital art. All however\, through their work\, manage to bring to life a new idea of what it means to be Italian: a fluid idea in constant change\, distant from hollywood stereotypes or standardizations\, creating new dialogue and challenging the idea of tradition. \n\n\n\nCurated by Chiara Bardelli-Nonino and Jordan Anderson  \n\n\n\nArtists:⁠Kelly Costigliolo ⁠Elena Cremona + Isabelle Landicho ⁠Karim El Maktafi ⁠Jon Emmony x Del Core ⁠Sam Gregg + Riccardo Maria Chiacchio ⁠Kamilia Kard ⁠Rachele Maistrello ⁠Andy Picci ⁠Vashish Soobah ⁠Karol Sudolski ⁠Marzio Emilio Villa ⁠Alba Zari⁠⁠The show will be on view\, by appointment only\, from November 11th to November 26th\, 2021\, at via Paullo 12/A venue.⁠

SUMMARY:AUGMENTED SPECIES - Invasive Sculptures in Hybrid Ecologies
DESCRIPTION:Works by Sofia Crespo & Feileacan McCormick\, Carla Gannis\, Joanna Hoffmann\, Tamiko Thiel \n\n\n\nCurated by Tina Sauerlaender and Ursula Ströbele \n\n\n\nOrganized and developed by MoMAR (Damjanski\, David Lobser\, Monique Baltzer\, Vicky Leung) \n\n\n\nAn unauthorized international Touring Exhibition of AR sculptures in Museums and Sculptural Gardens worldwide.The relationship between the arts and what has been called ‘nature‘ as a historic\, cultural and scientific concept\, has undergone some major shifts. Various theories of post-(human)nature and eco-fiction have become more and more influential during the last decades as is well-known. The term ‘nature‘ itself has been called into question. Ecological theorists\, such as Timothy Morton think that we actually live in a post-natural age\, proclaiming ecology without nature. Donna Haraway describes entangled multispecies histories\, using the term natureculture. These theories include new ways of thinking about established hierarchies\, agency and power\, as well as difference and ontology. Leaving behind established dualisms\, the exhibition Augmented Species. Invasive Sculptures in Hybrid Ecologies aims to present four contemporary artistic positions working in the field of sculpture\, cyber ecology\, and eco fiction: Sofia Crespo & Feileacan McCormick\, Carla Gannis\, Joanna Hoffmann\, and Tamiko Thiel. They all deal with new technologies and forms of display\, thus developing a site-specific sculptural aesthetics of the living\, along with expanded possibilities of the sculptural in the digital age. The concept of MoMAR\, an unauthorized non-profit gallery\, is to democratize physical exhibition spaces\, museums\, and the curation of art within them. The exhibition occupies prestigious museum spaces around the world to connect the concept of eco-fictional shifts to said spaces. This process reestablishes what is called the canon of (art) history while invading physical locations with today’s technological possibilities\, questioning institutions and their hierarchies\, structures and programmes.

After millennia of humankind looking out into space and beaming messages into the unknown\, what if it turned out that someone was gazing back? By employing collective sci-fi imagination\, the artists of Generation Z turn the gaze back onto us: this time around\, we are not the observer\, but the observed.\n\n\n\nIn 1977\, Earthlings launched two spacecraft\, each equipped with a copy of the Golden Record — a gold-plated audio-visual disc containing information about the diversity of Earth’s life and cultures. These ‘messages in a bottle\,’ loosely aimed in the direction of intelligent alien species\, are currently the farthest human-made objects from our home planet. They carry images and sounds of Earth — samples of human speech\, musical tracks and illustrations of the structure of DNA — deeper into interstellar space. \n\n\n\nFour decades after the hopeful launch of the Golden Records\, GEM Z imagines an analogous alien treasure trove crashing here on Earth. Inside the precious debris are adornments enclosing genetic data\, all-seeing artificially intelligent eyes\, ornamutational organisms designed for symbiosis\, samples of nuclear animistic beauty\, ritualistic tools and research that de-glamorizes diamonds.  \n\n\n\nThe membranous scenography of the exhibition’s crash site serves as a metaphor for the new narratives offered by the Generation Z makers — oozing and diffusing out of the museum’s walls. The presented  works fuse design\, digital art and adornment\, and were specifically developed for this exhibition by the participants of Current Obsession’s Gem Z Talent Acceleration Programme.  \n\n\n\nExhibited artists\n\n\n\n@computa_hydrates@dovile.bernadisiute@emmie.ray@hanseltaiart@joaveer@lokidolor@rawmisky@smalaskuggan@shhhvonstudio \n\n\n\nInitiated and curated by Current Obsession. \n\n\n\nImage credits: exShoes by @smalaskuggan  – @federmess and @tobiasgroot.jpg – Graphic Design by @_______________lindabeumer

SUMMARY:CALCIUM THIRST - Salomé Chatriot
DESCRIPTION:« J’ai voulu créer un futur fantasmé\, lieu d’une harmonie possible entre l’humain et la machine ». Quand Salomé Chatriot\, 25 ans\, énonce son désir à voix haute\, on est tout de suite happé. Par ses mots et par ses œuvres. Qui donnent naissance à un univers science-fictionnel étrange\, autant dérangeant qu’accueillant. Un nouvel organisme vivant qui se regarde\, se touche et se sent. Voire même : se pénètre.  “I wanted to create a fantasy future\, a place of possible harmony between humans and machines.” When Salomé Chatriot\, 25 years old\, states her desire aloud\, we are immediately drawn in. By her words and by her works. Which give birth to a strange science-fictional universe\, as disturbing as welcoming. A new living organism which one looks at\, touches and feels. Or even: one penetrates. Exhibition text by Boris Bergmann

SUMMARY:Human Nature
DESCRIPTION:Culture can perhaps be defined as that which does not emerge or grow by itself but needs a helping hand. Paradoxically\, there is nothing that comes more natural to humans than culture. Raising a child\, cultivating the land – these are more than ‘natural’ things for humans to do\, they are cultural undertakings. Over the course of several millennia\, from the first agricultural techniques to the hypertechnological civilization we now live in\, cultural techniques have liberated us from natural constraints. \n\n\n\nBut in the last few decades we have reached a turning point: humans are free from natural constraints\, but nature is no longer free from human intervention. Known as the Anthropocene\, ours is an era in which every bit of nature is deeply impacted by humans. Today\, there is literally no ‘nature’ that is entirely devoid of human influence. So where do we take things from here? How are we going to deal with this unique situation in which everything in nature is now somehow impacted by humanity? These are the questions at the heart of Everyday Gallery’s latest group exhibition\, Human Nature. \n\n\n\nFocusing on creative work that transgresses the boundaries between visual arts\, architecture\, and design\, Human Nature features works by up-and-coming and more established artists like Mirko Canesi\, Ciro Duclos\, Arnaud Eubelen\, Marc Leschelier\, Estrid Lutz\, Xavier Mary\, Yoel Pytowski\, and Janne Schimmel. What binds these artists together is their keen interest in querying and questioning the distinction between the natural and the human. Instead of accepting that distinction as a given\, they deconstruct it. And having done so\, they creatively explore new ways to think about the relation between humans and nature. \n\n\n\nOften this creative exploration is mediated by working with cutting edge technologies in a deliberately unconventional way. Artists like Estrid Lutz or Janne Schimmel take a metaphorical bite out of the latest developments in computer-mediated technologies and do something completely unexpected with it. Taking a home computer system apart and creatively reassembling it again to make it look like an uncanny and alien technology\, but still fully functioning\, or repurposing cutting edge technological materials as the basis for a work that travels the fluid terrain between painting and sculpture. \n\n\n\nWhereas artists like Mirko Canesi\, Ciro Duclos and Xavier Mary take a more graphic and figurative approach to the question how to reintroduce nature at the heart of the human\, artists like Arnaud Eubelen\, Marc Leschelier\, and Yoel Pytowski move back and forth between architecture and sculpture to reconsider what it means to live in an urban environment that has been engineered to perfection and seems to be devoid of natural processes. Rather than embracing this perfection\, these artists develop spontaneous graphic work and architectural installations. At the core of these works are play and contingency; but also\, and importantly\, concerns about sustainability. For Human Nature\, Yoel Pytowski gives us a peek inside his toolbox with an installation that displays the materials he always relies upon when doing an architectural intervention: from heartwood to plywood\, all his materials are used and reused\, and nothing gets wasted. Leschelier’s Aprons with Spillers (2021) outlines the foundation for what could eventually become a pavilion\, but the work remains essentially unfinished\, leaving us to imagine what is still to come. \n\n\n\nPerhaps all the works and artists featured in Human Nature are engaging in a creative activity that could be described as a form of reversed engineering. In reversed engineering\, a complex and fully finished engineered product like a computer or an alarm system is taken apart to figure out how it works. In the same way\, in this exhibition the aim of the artists is to take human culture apart\, reverse engineering it\, and to see how the natural\, the spontaneous and the unexpected can then be reinserted into it. For many of the artists featured in Human Nature\, their work wants to articulate a beginning rather than an end. Refuting the idea of a finalized product\, the works remain open and point to possible futures rather than to rigid and determinate structures. This opens a space for thought\, allowing us to ask how in the twenty-first century we wish to relate to nature. \n\n\n\nText by Bram Ieven
