Miloš Trakilović Not a Love Song
In the organizer's words:
Curators: Emma Enderby, Léon Kruijswijk
Assistant curator: Linda Franken
Not a Love Song is the first institutional solo exhibition of the Bosnian-Dutch artist Miloš Trakilović (* 1989, BA) in Germany. The artist deals with the question of how digitalization influences our perception of history and reality. He examines the mechanisms of decomposition, fragmentation, memory and loss, often in the context of his examination of contemporary forms of warfare, their media representation and their long-term consequences.
At KW, Trakilović presents the installation 564 Tracks (Not a Love Song Is Usually a Love Song), for which he uses artificial intelligence (AI) to examine the past. When the Berlin Wall fell in November 1989, the war in Bosnia (1992-1995), which would lead to the mass expulsion and genocide of thousands of Bosnian Muslims, had not yet broken out. However, the tensions that ultimately led to the violent disintegration of Yugoslavia were already palpable at the time. In 564 Tracks, the artist examines music produced in Yugoslavia between 1989 and 1992 and uses AI to analyze how the increasing socio-political tensions were reflected in it. The work reflects on the extent to which the production of culture might anticipate impending crises - a hypothesis that could shed light on past and present conflicts and their effects.
