Wojciech Fangor, Kaifan Wang and Aïcha Khorchid at Museum Kampa in Prague
This exhibition that presents works exclusively from the Wigam Collection is centered on two main visions of the world. In one space, the focus lies on the experience of the world through the body; while in the other, the world is, first and foremost, observed and lived through the social interdependencies. Needless to say, this distinction signals only the primary point of attention since one cannot think about the body without its social habitus and, conversely, the social order is personal and physical. These two visions, reflected in outstanding works made by some of the most interesting artists of our time, seem to be of great relevance at this moment. Participating artists: P. Barlow, G. Baselitz, M. Bourouissa, M. Cahn, J. Claracq, A. Cudahy, M. Eichwald, T. Emin, W. Fangor, L. Fratino, J. Gribbon, D. Hadjab, P. Halilaj, D. Hockney, N. Jaouda, C. Johnson, M. Jungwirth, M. Kara, A.

Harrison Pearce I 15th Gwangju Biennale, Artforum
For the 15th Gwangju Biennale, director Nicolas Bourriaud describes setting out to explore “the sound of ecosystems” in the age of the Anthropocene. His title, “Pansori: A Soundscape of the 21st Century,” takes its cue from the Korean folk tradition of pansori, an extended song-story delivered in public space. In such a sprawling exhibition—encompassing seventy-two artists from thirty countries across nine venues—this framework ultimately offered little help for navigating the diverse works on display. Rather than attempting my own bird’s-eye view, I want to focus on a group of audiovisual installations in the main exhibition hall, in which I found a more coherent thread in the literary trope of the katabasis, or the journey to the underworld.Writer Robert Macfarlane has described how ancient stories—Enki’s journey for Gilgamesh, and those of Orpheus and Aeneas—speak to the archaic roots of our concepts “to understand” and “to discover” in a descent, in the search of knowledge, beyond the human realm.
