The act of announcement itself assumes a performative dimension, constituting an initial gesture through which reality begins to form.<br \/>\nThe posters, all printed locally, are displayed side by side on an equal footing. They visualize the core concept of Axel Obiger as a collectively organized, democratically structured initiative grounded in the individual artistic practices of its members.<br \/>\nThe posters are accompanied by a social media campaign that further extends the exhibitions\u2019 performative assertion of reality.<br \/>\nThis project playfully examines each artist\u2019s negotiation of visibility and the search for an appropriate form of presentation under the conditions of the digital age. What role do analog modes of display continue to play? Do the digital traces left across various platforms not often serve as sufficient catalysts for reaction and discussion? And which algorithms, in turn, now determine visibility and assume the roles once held by curators and exhibition organizers?<br \/>\nIn this way, the group draws critical attention to existing hierarchies while simultaneously communicating its vision of how solidarity and collaborative action might persist in a digital world. The shared exhibition space becomes a symbol of how hierarchies may be subverted through collective practice grounded in diverse forms of authorship. Within this framework, an exhibition becomes possible for all the members of Axel Obiger, regardless of their financial resources or ability to travel to a distant country.<br \/>\nTO BE ANNOUNCED opens up an experimental space for collaborative and egalitarian exhibition practices\u2014situated between analog and digital formats, and negotiated between global and local contexts.<\/p>\n<p>further information: https:\/\/www.b-la-m.org\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BLAM Festival 2025&nbsp; Axel Obiger To be Announced Opening: 2025 Oct 23, 6-10 pm &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; El Hub Mesones No. 154 Centro Hist\u00f3rico, Cuauht\u00e9moc\u202806000 Mexico City, Mexico Fourteen posters announcing fourteen individual solo presentations\u2014the same duration, the same &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/?p=3271\">Weiterlesen <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3271"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3271"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3271\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3286,"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3271\/revisions\/3286"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3271"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3271"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.harrietgross.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3271"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
