Exhibition text
MoreI was sitting in a bar and I remembered what Sebastian Black once wrote to me:
“In my neighbourhood there is a coffee shop that turns into a wine bar at night. I went there one afternoon to relax and browse through some anarchist pam- phlets that had been handed to me at a march that I had inadvertently joined while trying to cross the street to buy a pack of cigarettes. I sat down with my latte and absentmindedly leafed through the photo- copied pages. My thoughts wandered back and forth in time for a while. I thought about websites where I could find easy pasta recipes and about a bully I knew once in summer camp. Eventually the sun went down, and my thoughts reassembled themselves in the present. I looked down into my cup, and my coffee had turned into wine.”
Coffee Shop – Wine Bar is an exhibition by Sebastian Black, Santiago de Paoli, Kitty Kraus, Elena Tejada-Herrera, Sergio Prego and Ariel Schlesinger, which engages with states of matter, bodily contortions and figure/ground entanglements.
