AKA SYMBOL will bring together works by 27 artists dealing with symbols in the widest sense, ranging from social, political to its etymological form.
Based on the initial display of these artworks in the Forgotten Bar in
January, an exhibition and evening of performances will take place at HBC Berlin. These performances will deal with the interpreting, activating and recontextualising of the exhibited works in order to explore the validity of subjectivity.

The Forgotten Bar Project, Boppstrasse 5, Berlin

AKA SYMBOL will bring together works by 27 artists dealing with symbols in the widest sense, ranging from social, political to its etymological form. Considering symbols are designed for a culture, brought on by a culture and thus more or less authored by one, they are designed without an accentuation of this authorship. In contrast an artist interprets a culture inclusive of cultural symbols and uses them to have new meaning by inserting it back into the culture through artistic expression. Based on this initial display of works in the Forgotten Bar, performances will be developed, to be performed two months after this first show. These performances will deal with the interpreting, activating and re-contextualising of the now exhibited works in order to explore the validity of subjectivity.

This exhibition- performance- bond is related to the ‘nahuatl codices’ (books) and meso-american mapping systems from the 15th & 16th century which displayed pictographs and hieroglyphs. These maps did not make a distinction between time and space and so simultaneously communicate geographies and histories as well as themes from philosophical concepts, environmental histories to relationships. The codices were then interpreted by the Tlamatini -”he who knows something”-,a person who would elaborate and communicate these “maps” to the audience. The role of subjectivity as individual documentation and interpretation was elemental to their understanding of history and their past.
The performances of AKA SYMBOL will inquire into the possibilities in audience reception and rejection of the concept of the personal versus objective way in which we connect with artworks.

Sound is sound. Like i or Us. The iPod and laptop are shaped in our simplified image. Screen as eyes and buttons as teeth. Our proto-clone. There is a logic to hearing and recording sound online, or even sound downloaded from this forum. Everything online is initially as if sound. Heard in the mind first as audio. This may have to do with the clacking of the keys, this piano-like technique, that prioritizes audio as we type or search for images. As Rock Band™ renders the idle, idol, recorded sound, found and made in the digital forum becomes more public. Meaning free and free. The artists in this collection echo these distinctions. This audio is both plastic and organic. Like Us and i. They are sculptural and free and sound.

Why + Wherefore is a curatorial project co-founded and -directed by Summer Guthery, Lumi Tan, and Nicholas Weist. New shows are uploaded to our website as our schedules allow.
