Materialized information Transfer in the post-Internet Era
Mobile galleries travelling across Europe

TILL KÖNNEKER

An empty ship wrecked boat is laying open in the shipping container with only the bow peeking out, gold plated. Looking inside the container you can see the rest of the dingy dirty boat.
In Könneker `s installation a shipping container means trade with far away countries, the arrival of long anticipated goods.
It is one of the building blocks of our globalized consumerist culture. It symbolizes the deceptive hope which refugees follow like a light and which lets them accept and take every possible risk for a better life.


CONTAINER ART INSTALLATION

August 20th until October 20th 2015

@ Boxircus Salztorbrücke
@ Loft City I BROTFABRIK WIEN

Site-specific and non-specific, a conflict between information reality and virtuality, global versus national culture and central Europe as an equal part of the European Union.
These are the themes of that international exhibition project Contain[era] that will take place in 2015 in 8 European countries. 8 shipping containers will be turned into moving galleries, each providing space for a multimedia installation of one European emerging artist.
From 20th August 2015 these unique exhibition spaces will circle throughout Europe round Prague, Bratislava, Warsaw, Budapest, Roma, Zurich, Berlin and Vienna. By virtue of different cultural influences in each destination, every exhibition opening will provide a unique experience, an implantation of the container within a specific local environment.

?One of the ambition of the Contain[era] is to materialize the mode of information sharing which we have become accustomed to in the post-Internet era: we constantly unplug content and implant it somewhere else, sharing is the beat of our generation? specify the project initiators.

The mobile galleries will represent closed-up information capsules, presenting artistic perspectives of different national heritages in weekly cycles. After visiting all destinations, eight containers will gather in the organizing city on Prague symposium and following two weeks exhibition.
