Andreas Rau, Symphony for n Metronomes: A shared time, a distributed gesture
At first, it appears as pure rhythm. Minimal pulses, digital pendulums, visual oscillations on an interface. Each element moves with essential elegance, as if dancing within a space of silence. But it becomes clear that Symphony for n Metronomes by Andreas Rau is far from a mere algorithmic installa

Monica Bonvicini at Capitain Petzel: It is Night Outside
There’s a moment, just as you cross the gallery’s threshold, when the darkness implied by the title slips in, not as a lack of light, but as an existential condition. “It is Night Outside”: a phrase that doesn’t merely describe but warns. What is this night? A historical moment? A mental s
Fakewhale in Dialogue with Chris Dorland
We’ve been following Chris Dorland’s work for some time now, captivated by his ability to fuse digital languages, analog remnants, and a near-prophetic take on the post-human condition. His paintings seem to erupt from a collision between material substance and the residue of corrupted systems,
