Victoria Lomasko’s retrospective at Cartoonmuseum Basel invites viewers to engage deeply with her explorations of Russia’s marginalized communities. This vibrant exhibition showcases her striking murals and drawings, which intricately depict the lives of LGBT activists, sex workers, and migrant laborers. Through her keen observations and bold, expressive style, Lomasko highlights the social injustices and political repression faced by these groups.The Tallinn Architecture Biennale (TAB) 2017delved into the future of urban environments through the lens of biotechnology and non-human-centered design. Curated by Prof. Claudia Pasquero, this fourth edition featured a diverse program comprising the Curatorial Exhibition, a thought-provoking symposium titled “Polycephalum City”, and the Tallinn Vision Competition, alongside satellite events like the Installation Programme exhibition and the bio.School showcase. Over two days, distinguished architects and researchers, including Mitchell Joachim and Rachel Armstrong, gathered to exchange insights on architecture’s intersection with biology and computation, envisioning cities as self-organizing systems. This Biennale not only highlighted innovative architectural practices but also prompted essential discussions on the evolving role of urban spaces in our rapidly changing world.A Poet Passes Through celebrates the expansive world of Abdellatif Laâbi, the Moroccan writer, poet, and painter, at the Mohammed VI Museum in Rabat. This exhibition explores Laâbi’s rich and engaged body of work, presenting him as a voice for a generation seeking meaning through art. It unveils the creative spirit of an era, featuring literary works, archival documents, paintings, and videos that trace his journey and reveal his less-known facet as a painter. A significant focus is the groundbreaking Souffles review, co-founded by Laâbi, which profoundly transformed Moroccan culture and liberated minds. Visitors will discover how one artist’s vision and intellectual struggle historically shaped artistic expression and continue to resonate today, offering a unique insight into a life dedicated to creative impact.The exhibition GASTEV. How to Work examines the profound influence of Alexey Gastev, a key figure in Soviet thought and the founder of the Central Institute of Labor (CIT). Gastev’s work in the 1920s and 1930s revolutionized labor practices through his development of scientific labor organization (NOT), blending Marxist ideology with avant-garde approaches to efficiency, biomechanics, and human-machine interaction. His theories sought to transform workers into precise, efficient elements of industrial production, reflecting the broader Soviet utopian vision of reshaping society through labor. The exhibition contextualizes Gastev’s role not just as an organizer but as a visionary whose ideas on human potential and mechanization resonate with contemporary discussions on automation and the future of work. Despite his execution during the Stalin’s Great Purge/Terror, Gastev’s legacy continues to provoke thought on the relationship between labor, politics, and the shaping of the modern human.

Rooted in the early 2020s — a period marked by the coronavirus crisis and logistical demands from the large-scale retrospective Genkyo Yokoo Tadanori — this show responds directly to the sudden absence of major holdings and the challenges of museum governance. Three participating curators, deeply familiar with the collection, selected their personal favorites not included in the tour, highlighting the profound existence of the artist’s full creative output. This perspective reflects the confusion of managing a cultural facility during a state of emergency. By adopting the curators’ viewpoint, visitors gain an opportunity to freely enjoy the viewing experience and rediscover the rich, constantly changing creative world of Yokoo Tadanori.

Museum Choreography

Muuseumi Koreograafia
Estonia Tartu 2018 53

This innovative exhibition reimagines the traditional museum experience through the lens of dance and choreography, inviting audiences to become active participants in the artistic dialogue. It foregrounds the unpredictable interplay between viewer movement and static artworks, showcasing how personal histories, cultural contexts, and physical presence transform the museum into a living, dynamic space. By exploring the nuances of how we look at and engage with art, the exhibition challenges visitors to reflect on their own movement and interactions within the gallery. This exhibition is a thought-provoking exploration of the embodied experience of art, making the viewer an integral part of the creative narrative.

Why should you watch this?

In today’s rapidly evolving cultural landscape, this exhibition stands out by positioning dance and choreography as vital means of understanding and engaging with art in the museum context. By centering the audience’s experience, it reflects our collective need for connection and interaction in spaces that often feel static and distant. In an era where individual perspectives and cultural backgrounds shape our understanding of art, this exhibition invites viewers to reclaim their role, reminding us that museums are not just repositories of art but vibrant environments shaped by human presence and movement. As the act of looking becomes more layered and complex in our digital world, this exhibition challenges us to reconsider our relationship with art, encouraging a deeper engagement that resonates well beyond the gallery walls.
