Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die (Malachy McCourt).
From 7 March to 21 June 2020, KUNST MERAN MERANO ARTE is hosting the show RESENTMENT, analysing an emotional state that characterises the present era like few others.
Taking different approaches and perspectives, thirteen international contemporary artists – Teodora Axente, Francesca Grilli, Massimo Grimaldi, Klara Lidén, Christian Niccoli, Riccardo Previdi, Liesl Raff, Monika Sosnowska, Barbara Tavella, Wolfgang Tillmans, Beatrice Volpi, Raul Walch and Gernot Wieland – will address this issue.
The exhibition, curated by Christiane Rekade, is the offspring of an interdisciplinary collaboration between KUNST MERAN MERANO ARTE, the Conductus association and string ensemble, and the Alpha Beta publishing house. Starting from a reflection on the deepest meaning of resentment, all three investigate it from a literary, musical and artistic point of view, offering a series of events and initiatives.
Videospiel, Online displays & Künstler*innenbeiträge
Der Künstler und Kunstvermittler Hannes Egger hat ein Jump 'n' Run-Videospiel durch die aktuelle Ausstellung „Ressentiment“ kreiert.
Aufgabe der türkisfarbenen Spielfigur ist es, so viele Münzen wie möglich zu sammeln. Dabei begegnen ihr die verschiedenen Kunstwerke der Ausstellung mitsamt erklärenden Texten. Gespielt werden kann mit dem PC und auf dem Smartphone. Der Aufbau des Videospiels ist bewusst einfach gehalten, damit mehr und weniger erfahrene Spieler*innen es schaffen den Parcours zu durchlaufen.
Auf der Webseite von Kunst Meran können unter der neuen Rubrik “Online Dislplays”, verschiedene Beiträge eingesehen werden, die die Ausstellung anhand von Videos, Bildern, dem kostenlos herunterladbaren Booklet und eigens von den Künstler*innen erstellten zusätzlichen Beiträgen, erzählt.
Zusätzlich zu den drei wöchentlichen Veröffentlichungen auf den sozialen Medien von Kunst Meran – jeweils Dienstags, Donnerstags und Freitags –zeigen wir ab dem 28. März jeden Samstag jeweils einen eigens dafür verfassten Beitrag eines Künstlers / einer Künstlerin der Ausstellung zum Thema.
