What do we do when we do nothing—if that is even still possible—and what freedoms or possibilities open up in the moment of pausing? Under the title REST, a two-day event with performative contributions will take place at the Grosstankstelle Brandshof (Hamburg Rothenburgsort), where the processes of urban transformation become visible in specific ways. Here we propose a transformed understanding of time in order to resist the impetus of acceleration and efficiency. REST is dedicated to the moment of interruption, seeking to explore societal spaces for action—beyond productivity.
With performative contributions by Jenni Bohn, Camila Cañeque, Sarah Drath, Nicholas Grafia, Vir Andres Hera, Matthias Schubert, Mikołaj Sobczak, Hyemin Yang, and an educational intervention by Lyn van Gent.
This is a collaborative event presented byA cooperation between Pfeil Magazine and the exhibition space VIS on the occasion of the 19th issue of Pfeil Magazine, published by Montez Press.
