âPublicatie: âMelancholy is not enoughââ poster cu text de Niels Van Tomme.

Melancolia, âo placere tristaâ, cum o numea Julia Kristeva, este banuita de excluderea oricarei actiuni. Asediat de starea chinuitoare, persoana nu poate reactiona in intampinarea sau impotriva acestei conditii atotpatrunzatoare. Abandonand cautarea voluntara a placerii in trairi si ambiante coplesitoare - asa cum este melancolia in majoritatea conceptualizarilor starilor sale - artistii prezenti in aceasta expozitie submineaza aparitia melancoliei in sensul delectarii si leaga, intr-un mod inexorabil, locurile fizice pe care le parcurg de starile mentale pe care si le doresc insusite. (Niels Van Tomme)

Niels Van Tomme este curator, cercetator si critic de arta nascut in Belgia si stabilit la New York si Washington. In prezent este Director of Arts and Media la Provisions Learning Project. A curatoriat numeroase expozitii si a co-organziat proiecte de arta publica precum "The State of Things?" la MCA (Denver). In calitate de colaborator al diverse reviste si jurnale, precum Art Papers, Afterimage, EXTRA si hART, el invetigheaza aspectele socio-politice ale culturii contemporane.

Expozitie sustinuta de PAVILION - journal for politics and culture.

Publication:  "Melancholy is not enoughâ" poster with text by Niels Van Tomme

âA sorrowful pleasure,â according to Bulgarian-French theorist Julia Kristeva, melancholy is assumed to exclude any action. Besieged by one's grievous state, one can't react with or against this all-pervasive affective condition. Turning away from deliberately finding pleasure in overpowering sentiments and environments, as the melancholic subject is expected to in most conceptualizations of her state, the artists in this exhibition subvert the looming of melancholia into delight, relentlessly relating the physical places they navigate to the mental states they desire to appropriate. (Niels Van Tomme)
