BRUSSELS - ARGOS - INTERSTITIAL ZONES
Historical Facts, Archaeologies of the Present and Dialectics of Seeing
21.10.2008 > 03.01.2009

The media know only the here and now, that which is fleeting and carries no inner memory. They present facts over which we have no power. 'Interstitial Zones' offers a critical space for opposition, with the work of fifteen artists and collectives that have searched inside the folds of post-war history, areas that the mass media never reveal. The politics of invisibility with which the media confront us are further expanded upon here, providing an archaeology of the present, in which the eclipse of the political and states of exception within our Western democracies are central.
