Loophole to Happiness Futura Centre for Contemporary Art 25 May -- 7 August 2011? Curated by Maja & Reuben Fowkes http://www.translocal.org Participating artists: Zbyne(k Baladrán, Adam Chodzko, Petra Feriancova, Sinis(a Labrovic', Ciprian Muresan, Csaba Nemes, Nada Prlja, Janek Simon, Péter Szabó and Katarina S(evic'. Loophole to Happiness sets out to locate and explore the freedom-enhancing loopholes that exist on the margins of repressive social systems from East European communism to global capitalism. Faced with the perfection of techniques of absorbing criticism and the systematic mobilisation of our creativity, sociability and sentiments for economic ends, the search is on for new forms of resistance to the endless pressure of production. This exhibition takes the inventive strategies of worker resistance under communism as the starting point for fresh attempts to imagine exceptions, find escape routes and evade the smooth surface of today's neo-liberal capitalist order. Reclaim Happiness Symposium: Opposing Systems Tranzitdisplay, Tuesday 24 May, 1-5pm This symposium considers East European socialism and post-communist capitalism as opposing systems and explores the tactics devised by artists, dissidents and social activists to circumvent, escape or resist them. Contributors include: Franco Berardi Bifo, Tamás St.Auby, Miklós Haraszti, Jiri Skala, Fedor Blascak, Adam Chodzko and Maja & Reuben Fowkes. This project is realised in partnership with Trafó House of Contemporary Arts, Muzeum Sztuki Lodz, Futura Centre for Contemporary Art, Tranzitdisplay and AMT Project and is supported by Visegrad Fund and European Cultural Foundation.
