until 20.05.| #3887ARTatBerlin | HazeGallery shows from 11. May 2023 the exhibition I’LL GET THERE ON TIME of the artist Victoria Rosenman.
The title „I will arrive there on time“ suggests, not without irony, many possible (significant) destinations – Time plays an essential role for the artist. One of the works (Requiem-box I) reveals the fact that the artist herself does not know exactly where her arrival destination is / what it is, and yet dares to make a very self-righteous statement about her punctuality. To be punctual means to have time under control, which can be very valuable, but also carries an uncompromising character. The artist rejects one of the other longings of hers „to go along with time“ by manifesting a contradictory statement (CA No. 3) „Time is not for saving“. Time is thereby devalued and VR sees it as an act of liberation from any determinant aspects in the creative process.
At the same time, the artist allows the viewer to share in her memories, for the sake of her own dismantling, which opens up a better understanding of her personality. To be in the „now“ is one of the artist’s longings. In order to be more aware of the present and her own ego-understanding, VR reflects on her moments of the past: she shows key figures and objects that contribute to her current beliefs. Some of her thoughts and manifestos are handwritten on copper sheets and others are photographs of familiar figures and faces.
The exhibition could be, as a section of a self-study of the artist, which at the same time is also a journey, with many destinations that she plans to reach on time in her own way.
Opening: Thursday, 11. May 2023, ab 19:00 Uhr
