Rituals

20:00: film:art 101 at CITY 46, Bremen

Rituals may be understood as performative acts that regulate human relations. Culturally imparted they function as social lubricants. If symbolically charged — as often the case in political or religious contexts — they promise orientation and safety.  Ceremonies when deprived of the original context may degenerate to meaningless activities. On the other hand cherished personal habits may become merrily celebrated rituals.
The programme assembles a number of video works by Yael Bartana and those of other artists that display activities of ritualistic character.

the programm accompanies the exhibition Utopia Now at Museum Weserburg, Bremen.
