Excursus, conceived as a surplus venue of the 8th Berlin Biennale, and an editorial project by Carlos Amorales
The evening introduces two publications: "Excursus", a publication of the 8th Berlin Biennale, and an editorial project by Carlos Amorales about his work in the Berlin Biennale. "Excursus" was conceived as a surplus venue of the 8th Berlin Biennale that expands the time and space of the exhibition. Developed by the curator Juan A. Gaitan in collaboration with Artistic Team member Mariana Munguia and graphic designer Maricris Herrera, "Excursus" is a compendium of visual propositions made by the participating artists of the 8th Berlin Biennale, meant to reflect on the force and autonomy that images have today and the power they exert on our political imagination. "Never Say in Private What You (Won't) Say in Public" follows the intellectual background behind Carlos Amorales' film for the 8th Berlin Biennale "The Man Who Did All Things Forbidden". It is structured in 8 chapters, which include drawn sketches, emails, and conversations during the rehearsals, the Ideological Cubism manifesto and documents on interventions in mass media.
