Currents 11: The Turn of Many Suns, the eleventh edition of this group exhibition and the first coproduced by Jester and Marres, presents the work of thirteen artists who have lived and studied for the past years in the Southern Netherlands, Belgium and North Rhine-Westphalia. The works in The Turn of Many Suns choreograph a shifting beyond the school walls and into a collective, albeit unknown, future.
Where do we learn a language when its words, images, and forms do not only carry our stories of survival but also move us to survive? This language is not necessarily found in the rhetoric of education systems but rather in a role model or another student, in family members – both biological and chosen. In a favorite band, in the darkness of nightlife, in a lover’s arms, or in a painting. It emerges from bodies and spaces where expressions of being do not stop at mere gestures but become ways of living. Our languages move us forward.
The artists of this year’s edition of Currents – The Turn of Many Suns bring with them cultural, social, and political relations that question, expand, and at times undo the fabric that defines a region and regional education. The image of many suns places their works in a collective story with many protagonists, marking the moment learning exits the institution and continues as a way of shaping the world.
