Altar Ego Vernissage

V_port / Museumsquartier Q21, 28.03 – 18.04.2010 Vernissage: Sa 27.3.2010, 16h Altar Ego’s main focus is the projection as a mechanism of the psyche. Inspired by a recording that documents a choleric outburst of the tennis player John McEnroe, Depart mounted portraits of themselves on a mock triptych. The Freudian categories id, ego and super-ego form a psychoanalytical triad, a field of tension in which the futile efforts of Sisyphus meet the tragic vanity of Narcissus. The suppressed inner motive becomes the linchpin that distorts perception and its selfreflection.

Spy Collectives Iminami

Iminami (by the Spycollective) is a multiroom performance installation. Drained brains swash in narrative tsunamis exhaling from the metamyth of the White Woman. Audience-swarms with spread waterwings on the tideway from mother to smother get carried away by drowned voices. This is fishy, oh buoy. Supported by Steim (Amsterdam), SARC (belfast) and ARGE Nonntal (Salzburg) Iminami Trailer
