Po besedah japonskega umetnika, performerja in aktivista Yoshinorija Niwe je potrebna “rehabilitacija” med odnosom do lastništva zgodovine kot posesti, torej kot nečesa, kar nam pripada, in med prevladujočim javnim zgodovinskim narativom, ki skozi dominacijo kulture, izobraževanja, politike, zakonov, sporočanja … oblikuje našo aktualno zgodovinsko umeščenost. Kot pravi, je razmerje moči med njima trenutno bolestno in potrebno rehabilitacije.
Razstava je zasnovana kot tematski pregled projektov Yoshinorija Niwe v vsebinskem trikotniku ekologija – denar – politika, ki v veliki meri zaznamujejo tudi umetnikovo prakso performativnih socialnih interakcij v javnem prostoru. Niwa se pogosto namerno izpostavlja nenavadnim in neproduktivnim družbenim situacijam z namenom razgaliti samoumevnost, praznino oziroma absurdnost zakoreninjenih sistemov in identitet.
Vodstvo bo potekalo v angleškem jeziku.

According to the Japanese artist, performer and activist Yoshinori Niwa, a certain “rehabilitation” of the relationship between history as domain (something that belongs to us) and the predominant public historical narrative (which utilises culture, education, politics, the law, communication etc. to shape our current historical position), is necessary. As Niwa puts it, the power relations between these positions of domain and domination are somehow ill and in need of rehabilitation.
The exhibition is a topical overview of the projects of Yoshinori Niwa within the triangle of money-politics-ecology, which also characterises the artist’s performative social interactions in public space. Niwa often voluntarily exposes himself to unusual or unproductive social situations to cast light on their perceived normality, emptiness and the absurdity of established systems and identities.
The guided tour will be held in English.
