IN THE MIDST OF TWO WORLDS
For Oslo-based international artist duo “First Place in the Table?” Was an impulse to form an analogy between the exhibition and soccer match. The artists frequently raises issues related to the functioning of the art world, and how it is influenced by socio-economic conditions. Their activities, based on interaction with representatives of various communities , frequently focus on studying the mechanisms and strategies within a particular system and searching for alternative solutions. “In The Midst Of Two World” us a work in progress. It is a a simulation-based project in which the artists featured in the exhibition are footballers, and the gallery space is the pitch on which the match is played.
Both in art show and football struggles, Martinka Bobrikova & Oscar de Carmen are interested in relations, systems of power, rules and patterns of operation, as well as the attitude of the artists to their position in the game.
As long as the show is on view and the ball is in play, everything is possible.
Text by curators of the show: Anna Ciabach and Stanislaw Ruksza.
This project is made in collaboration with Maria Alejandra Gatti, who conducted research and co-editet the fanzine that accompanies it.
