IN GOOD FAITH

 A framed black and white photograph showing the stage where the last public reading by Passolini took place in October 1975 at the Italian Culture Institute in Stockholm. Next to it stands a loudspeaker paired with a microphone. The loudspeaker plays the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights repeatedly. For each time the recording has incorporated a new layer to it: the microphone picks up not only the voice reading, but also other sounds present in the space

The Usher.

Underbart är kort, Captain Lightfot har redan hunnit ta till flykten men för de som inte han ta del av utställningen kommer lite info samt bilder.

En guidad mörkervandring varade i ungefär fem minuter, så det gällde att vara observant ifall man ville se allt på första rundan.

Ett transformerat galleri Gro fyllt med alster från konst-kollektivet Captain Lightfot.

Captain Lightfoot presents The Usher 8th of October 18:00

The Usher is the next group exhibition by artist run collective Captain Lightfoot. Working in collaboration with Novia and the YA Fine Arts department Captain Lightfoot will present new works by the three members of the collective; further exploring their ongoing research into narrative in visual art and curating.

Stripping Galleri Gro of its own light and structure a little like the creeping Finnish winter, Captain Lightfoot will create a new and unfamiliar space for the viewer; one primarily of darkness. The Usher is a performative exhibition that intimately leads the viewer through its space. Different artworks and details of the building emerge from the darkness; exposed for varying lengths of time these artworks demand the viewers attention before disappearing again.

Captain Lightfoot act as the usher in this performance; playfully exploring the language created between the artworks themselves and their occupied space, whilst questioning the viewers own placement within this narrative.
