Achtung! Veranstaltung vorbei!
In Stephanie Misa’s most recent installation, MAGA MEETS MARIE, a visually compelling assemblage of banners, hats and chandeliers create references to QAnon, Proud Boys and Marie Antoinette. These objects in the gallery space enable a critical engagement with multiracial whiteness as recently played out in a cosplay turned violent riot at the US Capitol, a cartoonish parody of the storming of the Bastille. As Karl Marx writes in The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte, people ‘anxiously conjure up the spirits of the past to their service, borrowing from them names, battle slogans, and costumes in order to present this new scene in world history in time-honored disguise and borrowed language’, a séance of revolutions past and present.
Guided Tours by the artist Stephanie Misa:
Wednesdays 28 & May 5 / 13.00 - 18.00
Looking forward!!!
By appointment with: office@marschalek.art
We are very happy to meet you in the space!
