Join us for a performative talk with the artist Mia Edelgart and the musician Heine Thorhauge Mathiasen. The basis for the talk is Edelgart\u2019s video work Floating Peanut, which was exhibited at CCC Gallery in spring 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The work comprises two video channels featuring a number of conversations that tackle the question: \u201cDo you ever feel stupid?\u201d The question also relates to the space of art as a context for presentation and judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the evening, Edelgart will sum up scenes and out-takes from the work, combining them with her notes and thoughts relating to the realm of doubt that often arises after an exhibition opening. Thoughts about the quality of the work will evolve into an internal, agitated dialogue about stupidity in artwork and practice, about failure and sensitivity, and about the relationship between subject and work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The artist\/musician Heine Thorhauge Mathiasen will add a musical dimension to the presentation, playing both with and in counterpoint to Edelgart\u2019s scenes and reflections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABOUT MIA EDELGART<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Visual artist Mia Isabel Edelgart (1984) works primarily with video and sculpture in variating collective and singular processes. Her works unfold in relation to long-lasting amateur research processes, and she has worked with questions relating to reproductive work, bees, pollinators, childhood and breastfeeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Springing from an interest in relational intelligence, knowledge hierarchies and learning processes, Edelgart often work at the crossover of text-based information and situated experience-based knowledge. Besides her production of artworks, she is part of various self-organized (art)schools as a way of facilitating alternative spaces for learning and de-learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABOUT FLOATING PEANUT<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The title Floating Peanut refers to a problem-solving test that scientists conduct on the likes of chimpanzees. A peanut is served in a fixed transparent tube, which the monkey cannot reach into. The monkey has to find its own solution for getting hold of the nut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Floating Peanut comprises two video channels featuring a number of conversations that tackle the question: Do you ever feel stupid? The question also relates to the space of art as a context for presentation and judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
