25.05 |18h00 Conference ‘On Labour’ by Marcel Stoetzler 06.06 |18h00 Guided tour by Bruno Leitão 02.05 |19h00 Talk with Antje Ehmann and Harun Farocki (Talk and conference will be in English, free entrance) In the seminars that Antje Ehmann and Harun Farocki conducted in different cities around the world, participants were asked to develop projects in video format focusing on the theme of labour, framed in a single shot and with limited duration. In accordance with this concept, the exhibition now presented at Lumiar Cité is an installation consisting of a selection of these projects, produced by thirty-six artists or collectives from six different cities, including the Lisbon group, and pictograms on each city designed by Alice Creischer and Andreas Siekmann. In the exhibition, the videos become a fragmented picture of each city, their juxtapositioning allowing comparisons to be drawn. Because they are all taken in a single shot, the videos combine predestination and openness, concept and contingency. From a reflection on the specificity of the medium, the works suggest spatiotemporal portraits and extended views on the phenomena of labour in an interconnected world.
