Beschreibung:
The Music of Ramón Raquello and his Orchestra is the largest monographic presentation of the work of Eric Baudelaire to date, including his latest feature length film Also Known As Jihadi (2017). Baudelaire?s oeuvre has ceaselessly and open-endedly engaged with histories of images, cinema, radical militancy, and violence by or against the state. Spanning over a decade of artistic production across installation, print, photography and film, the exhibition follows his sustained attempts to find a form that accommodates the catastrophic complexity of contemporary life. The exhibition draws on a reoccurring leitmotif in Baudelaire?s work, that of the ?return?. Here, historical trajectories become looping re-visitations rendered both through the art works themselves and ghosted through their spatial realization.00Exhibition: WItte de With Center for Contemporary Art, Rotterdam, The Netherlands (27.01.-21.05.2017) / Tabakalera Center for Contemporary Culture, Donostia / San Sebastián, Spain (23.06.-15.10.2017)
