What currently connects a curator, an artist, a DJ and a cameraman? Everything and nothing, as they all usually try to be everything and at the same time define themselves against almost everything. Through the four archetypal figures of the art business, the authors of the exhibition create a multi-layered narrative that reflects the contemporary issue of paradoxical tendencies and consequences of working in the so-called art world. The project is an intersection of the artists' doctoral research, in which they are both researchers and their own objects of investigation. A common element of these researches is an interest in the proclaimed emancipatory and anti-systemic tendencies in contemporary art and the ways in which they are retroactively implicated in existing modes of production and polarizing tendencies in the realm of politics. The outputs of the project will take the form of several moving image fragments, reminiscent of the genre of the trailer.
