“I am attracted to ellipsis, to the unsaid, to suggestion, to eloquent deliberate silence …”
Louise Glück in her 1995 essay “Disruption, Hesitation, Silence”
The group exhibition features work from artists in authoritarian and democratic countries and is a joint reflection on censorship and repressive mechanisms at play. It dwells on the issues of self-censorship, power dynamics and things we often don’t say or simply can’t.
The works on display in the exhibition speak of the aesthetic power of erasures, actively transforming them to take control over actions that could leave one feeling powerless. Through photography, textiles, video, poetry, paintings, and installations the artists turn these enforced silences and erasures into thought-provoking, bold, artistic statements and offer space for public debate and intimate exchange.
Dance Reimagined: From Past to Present highlights Swiss dance heritage through a curated selection of archival videos and interviews with influential choreographers. Presented in collaboration with the Swiss Foundation of the Performing Arts (SAPA), this exhibition bridges the legacies of significant historical figures with unique contemporary contributions.
The exhibition includes works by Anna Huber, Sigurd Leeder, Anna Röthlisberger, Belinda Wright, and Jelko Yuresha. Dance Reimagined will also feature video interviews with Marianne Forster, Aenne Goldschmidt, and Noemi Lapzeson, providing a deeper understanding of their artistic practice and personal experiences through their lifelong commitment to dance.
