M8 curators Birta Gudjonsdottir and Jonatan Habib Engqvist will give a presentation and engage in a conversation with curators of the Mardin Biennial 2015, Paolo Colombo and Lora Sariaslan.
The VIEWER looks back at the 8th MOMENTUM Nordic biennial of Contemporary Art, TUNNEL VISION, Moss, Norway, June 13 – September 27, 2015. The VIEWER is the second part of the exhibition catalogue for TUNNEL VISION, edited by the exhibition’s curators Jonatan Habib Engqvist, Birta Gudjonsdottir, Stefanie Hessler and Toke Lykkeberg.
The VIEWER documents the 2015 biennial through images. It also includes the biennial’s soundtrack composed by Zhala and three commissioned trailers by Edward Shenk on a USB stick which is part of the publication. The book also supplements the TUNNEL VISION’s first catalogue, the READER, published in May 2015, which includes interviews with artists, theorists, scholars and a tunnel engineer, a collective curatorial essay and a commissioned scent by Sissel Toolas.
Both books are distributed by Mousse Publishing and will be available at the event.
