Description
Additional Info.

This installation has now been recombined with her works Climates and Paradoxes and Selected Life Indexes, produced for the Einsteinjahr 2005, and her video Begin Again, Begin Again (2015), which is centered around Rudolph M. Schindler’s architecture. The project Inevitable Distances highlights Green’s ongoing engagement with circuits of exchange between Europe and the Americas.

Green’s writing, installations, films, digital media, and sound works trace and interrogate the power of cultural institutions and their relationships with language, knowledge, and constitutions of selfhood, while at the same time indicating other ways of being and becoming. Inevitable Distances presents recent productions in conversation with some of Green’s earliest and rarely exhibited works. Referencing the encounters made and the distances travelled in a life’s journey, the exhibition puts her artistic production into a speculative and, at times, fictional constellation. Through the juxtapositions of past and present, a paradox emerges: How do we bring back the dislocated and the dead, not in order to chase away the ghosts, but to welcome them and grant them “the right to a hospitable memory out of a concern for justice”?

Inevitable Distances, a comprehensive survey of Renée Green’s practice from the early 1980s to the present day, is taking place concurrently at the daadgalerie and KW Institute for Contemporary Art. Green was a 1993/94 DAAD Artist-in-Berlin Program fellow. In 1995, the daadgalerie—then still located on Kurfürstenstraße—hosted her exhibition “Miscellaneous“.
