Automobil Forum Unter den Linden's IMPETUS AND MOVEMENT Exhibition Opens 7/12

The third exhibition produced jointly by Volkswagen and Ars Electronica opens on Thursday, July 12, 2012. "Impetus and Movement" is the show's title; Automobil Forum Unter den Linden reprises as the venue.

Here, artists from Europe, the USA and Japan have created mises-en-scène for deliveries of an impulse and the processes launched thereby as means of scrutinizing the tension and interplay between self-determination and disenfranchisement. The spectrum of their works includes subversive strategies for asserting a claim to a presence in the public sphere, unconventional methods of seeing the world though another's eyes, and nonsensical machines designed to carry out simple tasks in as complicated a way as possible. "Impetus and Movement" runs through Sunday, September 16, 2012. Admission is free of charge.
