Networking 2.0
Ramona de Barbaro & Aleksandra Borys

Zachęta – National Gallery of Art
admission included in entrance fee

Networking is a network of unstable relations between objects and bodies.

The main actors of the work by Ramona de Barbaro and Aleksandra Borys are objects lowest in the gallery hierarchy — kept in storage spaces and technical rooms, remnants of exhibitions and art works abandoned in the basement. However, Networking 2.0 is not an attempt to give them a second life, but to listen to the life that already exists in them. These things have their own history and their own spirits/souls. Their choreographies have their own rhythm and their own dramaturgy, which require different modes of perception.

concept: Aleksandra Borys and Ramona de Barbaro
performance: Aleksandra Borys, Ramona de Barbaro, Mary Szydłowska and objects kept in Zachęta storage spaces
