Time, Forward! presents 13 new large scale installation, film and performance works by emerging and established international artists, seeking to question the notion and function of time and how it relates to new forms of consciousness, action and sight in the twenty-first century.

OPENING TIMES
Thursday to Tuesday: 11am–7pm

Free entry

Time, Forward! is a project by Omar Kholeif, Maria Kramar and V–A—C that seeks to question the notion and function of time and how it relates to new forms of consciousness, action and sight in the twenty-first century. V-A-C Foundation has commissioned 13 new works by emerging and internationally acclaimed artists, who activated a collaborative dialogue a year before the project launched, intertwining their ideas and they were asked to imagine and suggest strategies to cope with the accelerated digital time. When our lives are deluged with images, tweets, real and fake information, can we embrace tools or positions of resistance that will help us improve our living conditions?

Participating artists: Rosa Barba, Aleksandra Domanović, Valentin Fetisov, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige, Daria Irincheeva, Alexandra Sukhareva, Christopher Kulendran Thomas in collaboration with Annika Kuhlmann, Adam Linder, Haroon Mirza, Trevor Paglen, Walid Raad, James Richards, Kirill Savchenkov, Where Dogs Run.
