T.E.R.R.Y / 2013

T.E.R.R.Y

by Pathosformel

20 March 2013


Most people would agree that the present world is in a state of crisis. The global financial system, where everyone compete to gain an advantive position, often gets all the blame. But is competition only something negative or is it something profound in human nature? How does competition affect human relations?

These are the central themes in T.E.R.R.Y, a new project by the italian/mexican artist duo Pathosformel, in which they investigate the phenomenon of competition from a scientific approach. In the last year they have made 3 different eksperiments all connected to the study of competition. Amongst other they have examined how competition works in social situations. For example, they have held workshops with children based on the traditional childrens game “The Chair Game”, in which you are always one chair short in relation to the numbers of participants.

At the event Samtalekøkken (Conversation Kitchen) the 20 March 2013 they will present a light installation (a part of the final art work), which is a moving system of light and plants, that individually attempts to gain an advantive position in relation to the same amount of light. With all the initial experiments for T.E.R.R.Y Pathosformel investigate the utopian idea of a world free from competition. The final realisation of T.E.R.R.Y displays 7 April 2013 at the Santarcangelo Festival, Italy.

Pathosformel always works with clear and strong visual aesthetics. Since 2007 they have developed and performed several prize-winning works at festivals and theatres around Europe including Institute of Comtemporary Art in London, Uovo performing art festival in Milano, and the Grec Festival in Barcelona.

Pathosformel (Daniel Blanga-Gubbay and Paola Villani) are artists-in-residence with Atelier Hotel Pro Forma in Spring 2013.

T.E.R.R.Y
af Pathosformel

At verden befinder sig i en krise, er der bred enighed om. Skylden tilskrives ofte det globale finansielle markedsmarked, hvor alle konkurrerer om de bedste positioner. Men er konkurrence udelukkende noget negativt eller i virkeligheden noget dybt menneskeligt? Og hvad gør konkurrence ved menneskelige relationer?

Det er centrale temaer i den italiensk-mexikanske kunsterduo Pathosformels nye projekt T.E.R.R.Y, hvori de undersøger fænomenet konkurrence ud fra en naturvidenskabelig tilgang. Gennem det seneste år har de foretaget de 3 forskellige undersøgelser, bl.a. hvordan konkurrence fungerer f.eks. i sociale situationer. De har bl.a. lavet workshops med børn baseret på den klassiske børneleg “Stolelegen”, hvor der altid er en stol for lidt i forhold til antal deltagere.

Til Samtalekøkken d. 20 marts 2013 præsenterer de en lysinstallation (et element i det endelige værk), som består af et bevægeligt system af lys og planter, der enkeltvis forsøger at opnå den bedste position i forhold til den samme mængde lys. Gennem de forskellige undersøgelser arbejder Pathosformel i T.E.R.R.Y med utopien om en verden fri fra konkurrence. T.E.R.R.Y vises i sin endelige form d. 7. april 2013 på Santarcangelo Festival, Italien.

Pathosformel arbejder altid med en stærk visuel æstetik. De har siden 2007 udviklet og fremført adskillige prisbelønnede scenekunst-værker på festivaler og teatre i og uden for Europa bl.a. på Institute of Comtemporary Art i London, Uovo performing art festival i Milano, Grec Festival i Barcelona.

Pathosformel (Daniel Blanga-Gubbay og Paola Villani) er artists-in-residence hos Atelier Hotel Pro Forma i foråret 2013.
