Time travel

“Berlin, 2020: Another time capsule opens its gates and reveals an abandoned exhibition”, a
possible title for a future newspaper article related to the project. The idea is quite simple: A
building that functions like an eternal architectural clockwork and permanently rotates.
We chose the abandoned former border to West-Berlin as a suitable site location. The
building consists of three rings: an outer ring with fixed underground rooms and two inner
architectural rings that are constantly rotating in the same direction with different speeds.
Very slowly – The middle ring takes 28 years (the time of existence of the GDR wall) for one
whole rotation; the inner one only needs one week.
Every two years, the openings in each ring happen to overlap, so that one room at a time can
be entered for a few months and after that will be closed again for another 28 years. These
rooms work as walkable time capsule-museums. It`s all about the moment when it opens
and people can encounter a different time layer in an exhibition that had been installed
almost three centuries ago and was abandoned and its content unknown until then. Before
it closes again, an exhibition will be set up for the next time it opens.

Something Else

Museum. A place where fragments of the world are displayed that creates a specific emotionnal condition. A place where all these fragments make sense through the spectator experience. Imagination is the real museum. Isn’t the space of current museums the limit of imagination ? A place where you do not have the choice to see what you want, and in which you wander, full of hope, expecting to find something that will transcend you just for a moment. What if this experience becomes unlimited ? Without any notion of space. Without any concept of time. Just focusing on your own emotion. Maybe the solution is just in your pocket. A solution that you are walking with all the time. A little pill which that free your mind of all the preexisting ideas. A little pill that will enhance your experience of your own life. A little pill that will be with you all the time in case you need to update your sensibility again. Just by seeing, touching, feeling the taste, you will reborn. The trip is not the museum anymore. The trip is your whole life. But maybe everything began, before you eat anything. Be high, take i.

Shrine of the ordinary behind the extraordinary

TEAM: Inci Lize Ogun, Italian

Welcome to the Shrine of the ordinary behind the extraordinary.

Our exhibition is held from a historical critique, who posesses the common objects of common people that were involved the big masterpieces, or eventually even witnesses that know personally the people narrated.

Considering how small you might feel reading long texts of explanation about the art pieces in museums, that might also end up on the back burner, have a look instead at ordinary signs, memoires, and objects that made the art that today is priceless and that could be also you.

You will have chance to see the comb that the prisoner in the medieval Milano, both Jesus’ and Judas’ face in the Last Supper, had used in jail..The studio key that the Italian carpenter, who stole Mona Lisa, had used to enter his studio.

Take your time in digging into the curiosities carried from our collector and you will avoid deviations caused by the media hype.

Our wandering shrine, a labyrinth of small spaces, compacted in one wagon, designed to keep and show the precious and the secret.

Hopefully this journey will arouse your feeling that there is actually no segregation of the art world from you.
