AGM 06 Discompact [curating, art management]

AGM Culture 06 Discompact [curating, art management]

3 Nov 2006 – 17 Nov 2006
The 4th edition of AGM - this time in Copenhagen, Denmark - was focused on the relation between non-narrative representations and reality. AGM 06 Discompact wanted to explore artists' interpretation and hence construction of a reality through the relation of sound-image itself rather than by means of a narrative; reversing the notion of representation, it explored how a combination of sound and image as such constructs, de-constructs or not constructs at all a notion of reality, and addressed this effort with the actual reality of a public square. AGM 06 presented screenings, installations and a symposium, which took place on November 5th 2006 in the Literaturhaus of Copenhagen.
