The Creative Act

with the archives as a workplace

SEPTEMBER 2, 2010 - JANUARY 16, 2011
The exhibition entitled “The Creative Act” brings together several artistic projects which use different methods to create narratives based on historical material. The exhibition has come about as the result of the recognition that many artists look on archives as an actively discursive system that they can utilise to point to phenomena of the times. In this context, "history" is taken to mean the recent past.
