Karolina Bregula “The Soup”
AC Institute
This event has ended.
The Soup is a reflection on the art world’s disingenuous engagement with politics. Influenced by the narrative style of the Theater of the Absurd, the work questions the sociological commitment of the artist outside of the sterile confines of the art world.
The video captures a group of artists seated at a dinner table. One by one they express their interest in the revolution destructively taking place outside their walls. As time goes by, their fear for action and engagement becomes apparent. Rather than involve themselves in the political upheaval, they choose to ignore everything outside of their own room.
