This group exhibition expands on meanings of the word foreclosure by investigating how certain narratives are expelled by particular social, political, and economic conditions. Cutting across the psychic and the spatial, discourse and the documentary, this show investigates a sense of crisis, expulsion of meaning, and systemic collapse in the contemporary moment. Ranging from photography to performance, the artworks challenge the paralyzing rhetoric of crisis and explore possibilities within everyday experience. The ideas and questions put forth by this exhibition will be actively interrogated through a series of public platforms, events, and working sessions.
With works by Kamal Aljafari, Yto Barrada, Tania Bruguera, Claude Closky, Harun Farocki, Allan Sekula, and David Shrigley, among others.
