Event Description

NATIVE LAND Stop Eject - Raymond Depardon, Paul Virilio, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Mark Hansen, Laura Kurgan and Ben Rubin.

Created by the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain in Paris, NATIVE LAND Stop Eject is an exhibition in two parts focusing on the consequences of globalisation and climate change. "Hear Them Speak" is a film by the world famous photographer and filmmaker Raymond Depardon, presented as a vast video projection giving voices to those threatened with exile though rooted in their homeland. "Exit" gives form to concepts on human trajectories across the globe in relation to urbanist and philosopher Paul Virilio's theories of speed, acceleration, and the global sprawl of the ultracity. Using his ideas as a launching pad, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Mark Hansen, Laura Kurgan and Ben Rubin have created impressive dynamic maps of global human migrations and their causes based on data from international organizations.

The exhibition is presented at the Kunsthal Charlottenborg. Major partners on this project include the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain, the AlhondigaBilbao, ZKM - Center for Art and Media, Karlsruhe, and Panasonic. With the collaboration of Unesco.

Opening Friday December 4, 8pm-11pm.
