For what sort of social structures dictate things like career choice, way of life, or art productions? And can we be sure that our human relations, in fact, are not already organized according to pre-established power relationships, unstated rules and rituals? How can we know that what we take for granted, that which appears so natural, are actually social constructions and false consciousness?<\/p>\n<p>The various works in this exhibition, each in a very distinct way, investigate different modes of existence, aspects of art production, and social life. They explore deep-rooted practices, conceptual systems, and rituals. They manipulate, disorganize, and disrupt fixed ways of thinking and patterns of behavior. Of course, the aim is not to establish new ones, but to puzzle, to make us wonder, and by the same token to raise questions about the legitimacy of existing conventions and established institutions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Friday,\u00a0February 10, 8\u20139:30pm:\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nperformative dinner \u201cToday\u2019s Menu: table-talk-manners-food policies\u201d by Mo Abd-Ulla<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sunday,\u00a0February 12, 1\u20132pm:<\/strong><br \/>\nperformative presentation by Robertas Narkus &#038; guided tour with the curator Egl\u0117 Mikalaj\u016bn\u0117<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sunday,\u00a0March 12, 1\u20132pm:<br \/>\n<\/strong>artist-talk by Victoria Durnak and guided tour with the curator Samir M\u2019kadmi<\/p>\n<p>This exhibition is part of a two-year-long residency and exhibition project involving six institutions in three different countries: Iceland, Lithuania and Norway.
