ArtScene Trondheim 29.09.202 / Tidsrom: BABEL (Void of Time)
Review by Aksel Langum Øien of the exhibition Time as a Social Institution presented at the collaborating venue BABEL visningsrom for kunst, the artist-run gallery space of Lademoen Artist Studios 21.- 26.2021
Location: Trondheim, Norway
Artists presented at BABEL: Ørjan Amundsen, Breton Cassette (17 artists and cassette releases), Anne Marthe Dyvi, Lesia Vasylchenko and USIKKERKUNSTJENTE (consisting of Alexandra Jegerstedt and Iben Isabell Krogsgaard).
Curated by Coast founder Tanja Sæter.
“In September, works by five artists were shown, as well as an audiovisual discography from the publisher Breton Cassette at the BABEL exhibition room for art. The exhibition is part of Coast Contemporary, a program of conferences, exhibitions and performances in Trondheim and Bergen. It is a project that since 2016 has aimed to establish a common platform for dialogue and communication between curators and creative artists. This year it takes place under the title Time as a Social Institution where curator Tanja Sæter conceptualizes an almost dystopian reflection on socio-cultural dilemmas and paradoxes in the contemporary search for a better future. A hunt portrayed as a time travel between futuristic and romantic, sentimentally nostalgic institutions.”
