EXHIBITION

HUNGRY FOR TIME

In the historical ambience of the Aula and the Paintings Gallery, Raqs Media Collective presents a show that apprehends time from the perspective of hunger and desire, the eponymous hunger for time. In eleven scenes this hunger for time is outlined in more detail. The scenes assemble artworks from all three of the historical collections and relate these to contemporary art, including works commissioned especially for the exhibition.

We show the work VOLCANO // Discursive Justice Ensemble (Kabelo Malatsie, Michelle Wong, Lantian Xie) with Hekate Film Collective (İpek Hamzaoğlu und Laura Nitsch) ft. Gabriel de la Cruz //

RESONANCE / ALGORITHMS

Program series curated by Marietta Kesting and Constanze Ruhm

mumokkino, Wednesday, 7.12. 2022

19:00 - 21.00

This program collects works that take themes such as resonance and echo as the starting point for staging the relations between analogue and digital algorithmic forms of visual and sonic recording and presentation methods. The culmination of the program is a performance by the queer-feminist choir MALA SIRENA, presenting a medley as an echo chamber of the whole series: appeal, empowerment, invocation, protest, echo, and collectivity.

The immovable hides in plain sight, and masks a movement that is not a movement. The inner volatility of a local event can imprint an indeterminate, extended perimeter, and open a breach into that which was confident that it would remain unscathed.

Eruptions transform tonalities and make the immovable move. In the moment of eruption what is solid is disassembled and rearranged, and even the most stably constituted categories undergo tectonic shifts.

A thud from deep within the earth awakens all, startling with a sound that comes to everyone, everywhere. A tremor passed across the planet – so immense that it even registered on barometric instruments as a discernible variation in air pressure – within hours, from Vienna to Calcutta. The eruption of the Krakatoa volcano on the 26th of August, 1883, is probably the first global event registered in real-time. Several years later, unusually dramatic sunsets and a thickening of the air produced a new optic, changing the rendition of light and colour in painting.

There is no opportune moment to hold a volcano; it makes irrelevant the temporal vanity of division between arriving early or departing late.
