jevouspropose X LOOKING Art Viewing Marathon during Zurich Art Weekend
LOOKING is a project (founded in Zurich in 2025 by Chaja Lang and Sam Porritt) dedicated to the slow contemplation of art.
Previously, a nominator has been invited to choose a single artwork for an audience to spend an hour with. By turns awkward/challenging/meditative. More than anything, it has been surprising just how rewarding the careful act of looking can be.
For ZAW jevouspropose (an office for cultural projects, founded in Zurich in 2018 by Sabina Kohler) has invited LOOKING to convene a looking marathon. This event will take the form of eight consecutive hour-long slots, each occupied by a different nominator and their chosen artwork. Viewers are invited to sign up for one or more slots, during which an artwork will be unveiled and looked at for thirty minutes, followed by a short talk given by the nominator.
*Please be aware that late comers will not be admitted and attendees are strongly encouraged to stay for the entire session.

For jevouspropose#17, Christina Lehnert (curator) proposes the Georgian artist Ketuta Alexi-Meskhishvili (*1979, lives and works in Berlin). The exhibition sheds light on Ketuta Alexi-Meskhishvili’s filmic work in an unconventional constellation of artistic positions.
