The Game of Life


At SPECTA we are very happy to present The Game of Life, a solo exhibition showing new works by Brazilian artist Otavio Schipper. In a new film, Schipper takes us onboard a visual journey in a flow of scientific imagery about our achievements in mapping, exploring, and enhancing biology on a cellular level. Juxtaposing the film, the exhibition shows a series of drawings which playfully explore our psyche and the social dimensions of our lives.

GOLEM

Agnes Meyer-Brandis (Germany) and the duo Otavio Schipper & Sergio Krakowski (Brazil) present their work at the Max Planck Campus (Potsdam-Golm Science Park).
​
Fascinated by the history of objects and memory as much as by the concepts of communication and coding, Otavio Schipper and Sergio Krakowski inquire into the origins of science, tradition, and imagination. For KLAS they will be presenting Golem, a video installation and a short story by Stephen Berg.

Otavio Schipper and Sergio Krakowski have been selected to participate in the artist-in-residence program KLAS.  

Within KLAS – “Knowledge Link through Art and Science” – the Max Planck Institutes of Colloids and Interfaces and Molecular Plant Physiology invites for the first time contemporary artists to develop their own project at the Potsdam-Golm Science Park (Germany) and the University of Groningen (The Netherlands). In the course of this eight month pioneering project, artists will work side by side with researchers in order to develop a new artwork bridging contemporary art practices and scientific research.

In addition to awarding two Artist Residencies in 2017, KLAS will present a series of events and conversations around specific thematic topics. KLAS is funded by the Max Planck Society and the Schering Foundation and ideated and coordinated by Polyhedra.

The Rio based artist Otavio Schipper has developed a new work for die raum that responds to the claustrophobic dimensions of the exhibition space. In line with the surrealistic aesthetic of Schipper's oeuvre and his tendency toward the mechanical traces of early modernization, the installation references concepts of time and the subconscious.

The Wizard’s Chamber is an abstraction which finds an imaginary language between art and science. The exhibition refers to Dr Nikola Tesla’s essay 'The Problem of Increasing Human Energy: With Special Reference to the Harnessing of the Sun’s Energy'. Tesla was one of the greatest inventors in the history of electrical engineering, also known as The Wizard of the West.

MOT International Projects will present the first solo exhibition of Otavio Schipper, working in collaboration with musician Sergio Krakowski, in the UK. Schipper's installation 'Mechanical Unconscious' performs a dialogue between old-fashioned telegraph machines, synthetic voices and telephone sounds.
