Yane Calovski at the exhibition On Seeking (13/12/2024)
Developed as an episodic installation that will unfold through three iterations, punctuated by public events, On Seeking aims to acknowledge Berlin’s critical artistic community and dialogue in a state of uncertainty marked by the disintegration of social structures, the crisis of counterculture or the erosion of solidarity. The project gathers artists in Berlin who share a background in the (post-)socialist context as well as research-based practice, reflecting on images of the future shaped by a possible dystopia: a reality in which certainty has disappeared and consensus on knowledge, facts and historical narratives has disintegrated.
From 23 November 2024 to 28 February 2025, a temporary collective will take over the running of After the Butcher Berlin. Over the course of three months, the exhibition space will unfold as an evolving, altering, morphing installation in which individual works will be replaced and repositioned, with performances and screenings inserted, refocusing the initial constellation and keeping the dialogue fluid and ongoing.
