Outspoken. Stimmen jenseits des Archivs
In the organizer's words:
The exhibition attempts to challenge, rewrite and trick the hegemonic canon. It focuses on individuals, animals, objects and historical figures who have developed creative forms of self-assertion because they were once pushed to the margins of this world. Perhaps we can expose the unjust and one-sided narratives contained in this canon by taking paths away from the established that lead us through the disregarded hinterland. The exhibition invites us to chase the dark spirits (authoritarian regimes, orientalist views, forms of oppression emanating from states or even archives) out of their dusty libraries. And finally, it poses the question: How can what once fell out of the canon be reinscribed into it? The invited artists explore methods that reveal fragments of the narratives behind strategies such as appropriation, manipulation and masking. On display are photographs, sculptures, installations and video works by artists from different regions of the world.
