Nonument Group Deutsche Marke na bienalu Pochen, Chemnitz

22.10.-1.11.2020

Nonument Group je na bienalu Pochen v Chemnitzu premierno predstavil novo instalacijo z naslovom Nemške marke. Instalacija razmišlja o kolektivnem spominu in pozabi ekonomske tranzicije v nekdanji DDR med leti 1989 in 1994. Ekonomski nosilci identitete: produkti, grbi tovarn in industrijske oznake so postale sredstvo privatizacije in optimizacije. Vzporedno so potekali podobno neenakopravni pogovori na temo monetarne zveze med vzhodnom in zahodom. Instalacija uporablja osrednji nosilec te tranzicije, nemško marko, in jo spaja s podobami industrijskih objektov, ki jih je transformiral in likvidiral tranzicijski Treuhand fund. Čarovniški triki s kovanci, ki se odvijajo v ozadju (mar FIAT monetarni sistem ne temelji zgolj na zaupanju?) so izhodišče za soočenje pogledov, spominov in izjav o tem redko omenjenem, a za mnoge travmatičnem kolektivnem procesu.

Tekom raziskave smo odkrili, da arhiv o tem obdobju ne obstaja oziroma ni dostopen. Zato je del instalacije postal tudi poziv k zbiranju dokumentov, zapisov, mnenj in spominov, ki bo dostopen na spletu.

Museum of Transitory Art

MoTA –

Museum of Transitory Art

MoTA is a multidisciplinary platform dedicated to advancing the research, production and presentation of transitory, experimental, and live art forms.

MoTA is a museum without a permanent collection or a fixed space. Instead, its programs are realised in different locations and contexts in temporary physical and virtual spaces.

MoTA organizes and supports transitory art in the form of continuous events, exhibitions and educational programs both locally and internationally. As its name indicates, MoTA examines what a museum can be today and in the future.

MoTA is in constant search for the new, the uncertain, and the undefined.

MoTA works on several continuous programmes & projects. We run MoTA Point – a Space for Art & Ideas, we curate and produce the annual SONICA Festival, in addition to regular music programmes such as SONICA Series and SONICA Classics.

Within the years of running our residency programme, we’ve established T.R.I.B.E. – a network of residency spaces in the Balkans & Eastern Europe.

We’ve also initiated the research and archive platforms ArtistTalk.eu and Mediateque MoTA & Tomaž Brate. Our educational programmes serve a broader audience with ongoing workshops, talks, symposia, and internships.
