"I NEED MY MEMORIES. THEY ARE MY DOCUMENTS."
September 11 – October 31, 2015
“I need my memories. They are my documents.”, (Ulf Küster, Louise Bourgeois, P. 43) curated by Nandita Raman is group exhibition features photographs and videos by five artists who work with a repository of existing visual materials. Despite the slipperiness of memory, Louise Bourgeois insists that they are her documents and adds, “You have to differentiate between memories. Are you going to them or are they coming to you? If you are going to them, you are wasting time. Nostalgia is not productive.” Documentation is often done to create an archive, a remembrance, but Bourgeois reverses this process choosing to rely on the mutable and the uncertain. The paradoxical place between memory and documents is the location of the works in this exhibition.
