Between Acts describes a moment of reflection, a point of hesitation, that we use to remember, think or feel before making decisions to continue.


comunicato stampa

Between Acts describes a moment of reflection, a point of hesitation, that we use to remember, think or feel before making decisions to continue.

Between Acts consider a 'backstage'. That what is usually hidden from view is here at the forefront - Performers are slipping in and out of character, rehearsing their lines.

By utilizing the exhibition space as a stage to accommodate moments of authenticity - or a scripted choreography of ideas - we suggest with this exhibition to look at different artistic positions working within performance and other 'staged' productions. Between Acts also predicts Sparwasser 2007 program, which will test to what extend the exhibition space can function as a stage.

Jesper Just is trained conceptually as an artist, but is operating within the tradition of film;Armed with formidable cinematographic skill, a battery of clever formal devices, and a flair for storytelling, Jesper Just has used his art to address the issues of gender, assembling and constructing, dismembering and dismantling the many and perplexing preconceptions of masculinity and intermale relations in the contemporary world.Hannah Barry http://www.jesperjust.com

Tim Etchells: ;God is sat at his computer one day and is bored. He selects the icon of the world and drags it slowly into the trash. Then he goes to the finder menu and selects the option 'Empty Trash'. The computer issues a warning on-screen "The trash currently contains 268 billion items. Are you sure you want to permanently delete them?; God thinks about it for a moment, about all the things in the folder called The World He cancels the emptying of the trash. He hesitates then opens the trash and drags the folder back towards the desktop. Then he relents and puts it back in the trash. He takes the cursor back up the menu bar and selects Empty Trash again.. http://www.forcedentertainment.com/
