HASSAN KHAN: GESTUS | Odprtje razstave

🇬🇧 For English, please see below.
V torek, 15. aprila 2025, ob 19.00 v Cukrarni odpiramo razstavo Hassana Khana z naslovom 🟡 𝗚𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗨𝗦.

Razstava 🟡 𝗚𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗨𝗦 je strukturirana kot asemblaž in združuje širok spekter umetniških del v različnih medijih in tehnikah. Med temi so plakati, stekleni objekti, glasba, video, asemblaž iz ostankov materialov, najdenih v skladišču Cukrarne, ter digitalne ilustracije, natisnjene na les, tkanino in aluminijaste plošče. Njena zasnova je tesno povezana s procesom in metodologijo umetnikovega dela, ki temelji na sodelovanju z raznoliko mrežo ustvarjalcev, kot so igralci, glasbeniki, oblikovalci, tiskarji, pihalci stekla, radijski uredniki in tehniki. Izbrani pristop k časovno omejenemu in intenzivnemu procesu dela ter naslov razstave se nedvomno nanašata na Brechtov 𝘨𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘴– teoretski koncept in metodološko orodje, ki ga je razvijal za doseganje specifičnih učinkov v gledališki praksi – hkrati pa se od njega tudi razlikujeta. Prav zaradi tega upoštevanje 𝘨𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘴a odpira prostor za politično stališče.

🟡 𝗛𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗻 𝗞𝗵𝗮𝗻 je umetnik, glasbenik in pisec, profesor na Visoki šoli za likovno umetnost Städelschule v Frankfurtu ter prejemnik srebrnega leva na beneškem bienalu leta 2017. Med njegovimi zadnjimi večjimi samostojnimi razstavami sta The Keys to the Kingdom v muzeju Reina Sofia v Madridu (2019) in obsežna pregledna razstava Blind Ambition (2022) v Centru Pompidou v Parizu. Razstava 🟡 𝗚𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗨𝗦 je nastala v okviru enomesečnega bivanja umetnika v Ljubljani in je bila zasnovana posebej za Galerijo Parter.

On Tuesday, April 15, 2025, we are opening an exhibition at Cukrarna Gallery titled 🟡 𝗚𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗨𝗦 by Hassan Khan.

The exhibition 🟡 𝗚𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗨𝗦 is structured as an assemblage, bringing together a wide range of artworks in different media and techniques. These include posters, glass objects, music, video, an assemblage constructed out of leftover material found in the storage spaces of Cukrarna Gallery, and digital illustrations printed on wood panels, fabric, and aluminium sheets. Its design is closely tied to the process and methodology of the work, which is based on collaboration with a diverse network of creatives such as actors, musicians, designers, printmakers, glass blowers, radio editors, and technicians. The chosen approach to the process and the title of the exhibition allude to Brecht’s theory of 𝘎𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘴 – a theoretical concept and methodological tool that he developed to achieve specific effects in theatrical practice. However, they are also distinct. It is for this reason that the consideration of the 𝘎𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘴 opens up space for a political stance.

🟡𝗛𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗻 𝗞𝗵𝗮𝗻 is an artist, musician, writer and Professor of Fine Arts at Städelschule in Frankfurt. He is the winner of the 2017 Venice Biennale Silver Lion. Recent major solo exhibitions include The Keys to the Kingdom (2019) at Reina Sofia, Madrid, and Blind Ambition (2022), a large survey at Centre Pompidou, Paris. The exhibition 🟡 𝗚𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗨𝗦 is part of a one-month stay of the artist in Ljubljana and has been specially conceived for the Parter Gallery.
