Holding Pattern – Warteschleifen und andere Loops
In the organizer's words:
Holding Pattern is the English term for the tactic used by air traffic controllers to keep several airplanes in the air above a busy airport without allowing them to crash. This symbolic scenario unfolds the motif of remote control and mastery: the sense that human destinies are closely interwoven with the circuits of technology - interwoven with expectation and fear, danger and rescue, as well as geometry, aesthetics and even beauty.
What are the patterns of movement that guide our lives? Do we design them ourselves, or are they written elsewhere, in dark zones that we can only glimpse but never fully see? Holding Pattern presents a selection of international artists who explore the choreographies, rhythms and algorithms that shape modern life, the ways in which data is embodied and how bodies are transformed into data.
Artists: Stan Douglas, Harun Farocki, Åke Hodell, Stefan Panhans & Andrea Winkler, Susan Philipsz, Elizabeth Price
Curated by Tom McCarthy and Anne Hilde Neset.
