“Versus” is an
attempt to treat the
concepts of rivalry, powerplay, jealousy, competition
and egoistic
ambition. Not only in relation to art and the art world, where those
concepts
are constantly present as distinct set of social patterns, but
furthermore in society as such
and in particular contemporary culture.
The “battle”, the competition and
the determination to be “number
one” has become
the underlying foundation for a long range of
activities all included by the term “culture”.
The
exhibition examines the mechanisms of rivalry in contemporary
culture.
"I refuse to battle - I am not afraid to die" was the main message, placed in an object.
