Fifteen artists from Europe participants at the Trigono Gallery of Athens, exhibition comes to chart a new terrain. How are we defined by our environment, location, and geographical boundaries? How do we experience ourselves within an understanding of these concepts? How do we experience others? As the problems of globalization and ‘dentity politics’ recapitulate themselves in our current moment, subjectivity takes on a spatial dimension. Our world is defined by our borders, our buildings, and our expanding horizon line, while we are asked to locate ourselves within it. • The exhibition opens March 18th, 2008 at 20:00 and will run through April 19th, 2008 Curated by: Vassilis Karakatsanis, visual artist For more information, please contact the gallery.
