Blindly<\/em> is the second exhibition in the series Videozone<\/em> and will present works by Artur \u017bmijewski. The Polish artist and curator of the 7th Berline Biennale 2012, creates situations that break social norms and taboos and thereby provoke controversial reactions.<\/p>\n

The show will present three videos and one audio work that confront us with the otherness of people who have certain disabilities. Blindly<\/em> (2010) observes blind people who fail at the attempt of painting, Singing Lesson 2<\/em> (2003) shows deaf people trying to sing-situations that question our usual understanding of perception and\u00a0turn into a battle ground of social conflicts. Though sometimes emotionally touching, his works make us aware of the fact that concern and compassion actually serve to maintain barriers. In fact people only become disabled<\/em> by the reactions from society. “True acceptance of the other is really hard.” (\u017bmijewski)<\/p>\n

As part of the Research project Videoarchive<\/em> funded by the Volkwagen Foundation, Videozone<\/em> regularly features current trends in contemporary video art. Blindly<\/em> is part of the Polish\/North Rhine-Westphalian cooperation project Klopsztanga. Polen grenzenlos NRW<\/em> initiated by Kultursekretariat NRW.<\/p>\n
