|Julie van Benthem |Anne Marie Havinga | Annika | Auke | “Zoom back camera. We are images, dreams, photographs. We must not stay here. Prisoners! We shall break the illusion. This is magic! Goodbye to the Holy Mountain. Real life awaits us.” The soul’s quest for enlightenment in a corrupt world; the grasp of spirituality through a mountain climb toward wisdom and reasoning. Jesus eats his face, feces turns to gold and frogs join the Inquisition. This group of seven turn a supermarket into a divine yet unorthodox extension of Alejandro Jodorowsky’s La Montaña Sagrada.

spacelagFlemingstraat 1, Groningen
[a self-created term for an undefined phenomenon], 1 a symptom which does not seem to exist but certainly can be experienced.
2 It is both an emotional, physical as mental change in your state of being- structure and -rhythm. 3 Not only a shift of time-perception is perceived but a disruption of your sense of spaciousness above all. 4 The inability felt when trying to position one-self as regards setting, influence and consequence is the main characteristic when the feeling of SPACELAG appears. 5 {-a feeling of emptiness and eruption of different intense impulses at the same time. Just like this transience experience was a short overwhelming fragment in our life, this exhibition will be an one-off appearance of your perception too. ‘’A unique phenomenon of a distance, however close it may be’’ * *Definition of ‘’aura’’ by Walter Benjamin (1936) The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction spacelag.weebly.com Opening 21st of May 19:00 22nd of May 12:00 - 18:00 23th of May 12:00 - 18:00 |

THE ODD COUPLEBankastraat 13, 9715 CB Groningen
The people in our group are not from the same place. We do not share the same perspective on the world. We speak different languages, so we never know what the other person really meant to say. All our works are very different, but they have one thing in common; a concern with The Absurdity of the World.
Through video, painting, printing, interactive Art or photography, we all create “surreal worlds”. Some of us create fantasy worlds in our work, where the audience and the artist can be free from rules and escape from reality. Alternately, some of us create an Absurd World through our work, in which everyday objects and actions become sinister or perverse. We are six artists who are connected by our theme of The Absurd. We present the two halves of The Absurd World. We are The Odd Couple. 20- 23 May Opening 20th at 19:00 - 22:00 Daily open from 19:00 - 22:00 Storm in the torenfabriekTower Factory, Damsterdiep 307 in Groningen
