The Present Archive
'I do get confused about time. If one loses one's emotional focus' – She stopped, struggled, went on huskily – 'That's what happens. Aeons – split seconds – they interchange. One gets outside the usual way of counting.'
- From The Echoing Grove (1953), Rosamond Lehmann
Comprised of collected film, text, image and sound The Present Archive is an exhibition that reflects upon the difficulty of defining the present moment. Engaging with the elasticity of time and duration the exhibition sets out and overlaps fragments taken from a diverse range of sources and periods. The material is choreographed within the space, alternating and spilling between projections, monitors and speakers in a sequenced pattern. The various, divergent elements produce a narrative that shifts between timbres, speeds and temporalities in an attempt to delineate the ever evasive present.

Perverted Minimalism Nr. 3:
Emotional Conclusions and Logical Matters
Claudia Djarbbari, Hedwig Eberle, Anna Friedel and Franka Kaßner.
Woodmill studio artist Claudia Djabbari presents the third installment of Perverted Minimalism; a touring group exhibition in collaboration with German artists Hedwig Eberle, Anna Friedel and Franka Kaßner.
Having graduated together in 2006 from the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich Perverted Minimalism reunites these four artists for a series of exhibitions held in Düsseldorf, London, Munich and Leipzig; the cities in which they now reside.
Possessing a shared interest in the conflict between collective and individual consciousness, Perverted Minimalism presents work that investigates political and social structures in conjunction with formal concerns.
Working across painting, sculpture, video and installation the artists reconfigure and add to the work included with each leg of the series creating a flexible and increasingly more complex installation that contradicts their reductive practices.
