SIPHONS
Madeleine Andersson, Janine Eggert, Ash Moniz, Füsun Türetken
Vermilion Sands Copenhagen 2024
Exhibition
By bringing together four artists, the exhibition raises questions about systemic (in)efficiencies within a larger context of global trade. The artists look at spaces that are largely inaccessible to the public and the average consumer. By translating their specific research into art works they reveal certain aesthetics behind the protection of goods. In the exhibition the world centre of industrial metal trade, the deck of a container ship, the courtroom or the private toilet become stages, on which the often somewhat absurd aspects of the systematisation and stabilisation of “growth” become visible.

Supported by the Danish Arts Council, The City of Copenhagen and the New Carlsberg Foundation.

In an interplay between activist and tragicomic approaches, visual artists Eli Cortinas, Susanne Kriemann, Anne Duk Hee Jordan, Lola Göller, Riina Hannula, Egill Saebjörnsson, Kasia Fudakowski and Philipp Modersohn address the absurdities of the administration of life and the temples of our time.

POST IMPALPABLE RITES, Theodoulos Polyviou & Dakis Panayiotou, 2021, Künstlerhaus Bethanien
Exhibition
Post Impalpable Rites was a duo exhibition by Theodoulos Polyviou and Dakis Panayiotou dealing with desire lines, body extensions and the potential of getting lost. Technology is a dominant factor in the commodification of sexuality and intimacy and the privatisation of desire, and at the same time has the potential to reconnect bodies, rituals and spaces and create liminal states. In response to the invitation of the Cypriot Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2021, the artists developed a site-specific virtual structure that is here partially brought into the physical space at Künstlerhaus Bethanien. They in intentional mutations, new paths until the state of disorientation and being lost can become a state of meditation.

GLOSSARY OF ROTATING ACTIONS, Janine Eggert & Ash Moniz, KELDER, London, 2019  
Exhibition
The cargo ship is a contentious vessel with its birth in European colonial expansion and current position harbouring geopolitical tensions. This delicate legacy, and the agents bound up in this trajectory, are explored by Eggert and Moniz in contrasting ways through their respective practices. Both artists follow different threads that stem from the abstraction of the cargo ship and in doing so confront us with that which is rarely witnessed but heavily present through its absence: the protection of global trade.

THE MOBILE HOUSE TURNS WITH THE SUN, Niklas Goldbach, Verena Issel, Marion Orfila, Martijn in ‚t Veld
House of Egorn Berlin, 2018
Exhibition
LINK
The Mobile House Turns with the Sun brings together surrealistic,
poetic and dystopian ruminations on landscape and architecture in
the past, present and future. The title is a quote from Ivan
Chtcheglov’s Formulary for a New Urbanism, written in 1953 under
his pseudonym Gilles Ivain. This text, both poetic and theoretical,
and fundamental to the Situationist International movement, set
the tone for Guy Debord and the Situationists in their early phase:
aspects of urbanism, urban space, transit and fexible forms. Gilles
Ivain sought a total transformation of everyday life as well as
structural elements of social environs of individuals.
