Modellarkivet in exhibition at ArkDes

Malin Pettersson Öberg, Modellarkivet

Malin Pettersson Öberg’s film Modellarkivet will be presented in the exhibition Modellarkivet, held at ArkDes in Stockholm between June 20th and August 26th.

Modellarkivet
20 June – 26 August

Explore the magical model archive of Stockholm’s Urban Planning Department through the lens of Malin Pettersson Öberg and her film Modellarkivet. The exhibition—the first in ArkDes’ new Boxen gallery — takes the film as it’s starting point to offer an experience at once spatial and tactile.

Artist Malin Pettersson Öberg’s work asks questions about archives and how they help us to understand our surroundings. The film about the model archive at the Urban Planning Department of the City of Stockholm reveals the tools that we use to understand our city and explores built and unbuilt visions of Stockholm, examining ideas connected to how we collectively organise our lives using miniature versions of large-scale cityscapes.

The large screen shows the film Modellarkivet. The subtitles are displayed separately. Towards the end of the space are two shelf units with around 50 models from the city’s Urban Planning Department model archive, evoking the experience of walking through its aisles.

The honor of work

Det är sexigt att betala skatt, Eva Linder

The subject for the evening is the honor of work, in Swedish Arbetets ära. The title is taken from a monument over the working class in Malmö created by artist Axel Ebbe in 1929. The sculpture group is placed on Möllevångstorget, Malmö and depicts naked bodies carrying a rock in their bare arms. The industrial skyline of Malmö is also depicted on the massive stone. The whole society rests on the shoulders of the working class. That is the honor of work and the workers. But how does this honor look today? In a near future where machines are doing work, together with artificial intelligence, what will happen with the work and the honor?  Are we left with the degradation of manual work, where the dirty jobs are managed by underpaid labor living under poor conditions, and on the other hand the magical artistic work?  Will machines and artificial intelligence also dream and feel honor and pride? And why must people who have a job work themselves to the point of death? Do we have a Swedish form of the Japanese phenomenon Karōshi (Japanese= death by overwork) or a local variant of the Soviet Stakhanovism? A Lutheran Stakhanovism?

Guest: artist and writer Dmitri Plax 
Curator: Nils Claesson

Presented by WORKAWORK in collaboration with Filmform.
We have a limited amount of seats. Please book a seat in advance.

Dinosaur Tears: experimentfilm för barn

Dinosaur Tears, Lars Hedelin

Film i Samtidskonsten och Filmform presenterar en babyvisning med fantasieggande experimentfilmer anpassade för de allra minsta i åldrarna 0-5 år. Från historiska verk som Hans Nordenströms experimentella animationer till mer samtida abstrakta verk av Lina Selander och Katarina Löfström. Programmet inleds med Jockum Nordströms animerade The Sunday Orchestra (1994) där en brokig skara jazzmusiker spelar sig fram längs New Orleans ödsliga gator.

Vuxna och barn är välkomna. Film i Samtidskonstens team kommer finnas på plats under hela visningen och vägleda genom de olika filmerna. Medhavda barnvagnar kommer kunna ställas nere vid Zitas biljettkassa och dörren till salongen kommer att stå öppen under hela visningen.

Programmet är curerat av Andreas Bertman och Anna-Karin Larsson
