Creeping Revolution at Rooseum
Creeping Revolution 2 is the continuation
of a series of experimental exhibitions and project models explored
by Rooseum during the last two years. Creeping Revolution 2 is a
group show with artists whose work is primarily visual and who try
to influence their surroundings through personal enlightenment and
individual experiences, often through mirroring close friends and
family rather than society as a whole. In a sense, this can be seen
as possibility to contemplate the other side of the socially involved,
documentary works that have been exhibited at Rooseum during the
past six months. That this should be seen as a return to a more
reactionary point of view, however, is a notion that must be dismissed.
Rather, it is a way of claiming that social and personal change
(even revolution) are equally important objectives for contemporary
art. Defining the works in the exhibition as revolutionary is to
emphasise the potential for change inherent in art; it is as much
about changing the way people think as it is about carrying out
actions in the streets. The adjective creeping gives
a measure of the speed and precision of that effect, at the same
time as it introduces the exhibitions methodology of gradual
change. Photo: Camilla Hovgaard
