INFORMATION (Today)

04. Feb. 2022 – 24. Apr. 2022

Encrypted networks, digital currencies, artificial intelligence, data harvesting, algorithmic biases, sentient machines—all are products of twenty-first-century data-based capitalism. The proliferation of information, and data’s nebulous modes of circulating and being processed, fundamentally shape daily life now. INFORMATION (Today) is a group show featuring contemporary artists seeking to unravel this phenomenon.

Sissel Tolaas RE________

08. Oct. 2021 – 30. Dec. 2021

For Sissel Tolaas, smell is therefore an important and often overseen tool of communication.
