In (the) Place of the Oak

Drawing on branches as diverse as conceptual art, folklore, history and economics, the mighty oak tree at Tensta Konsthall provided the backdrop to In (the) Place of the Oak. The audience are invited to gather around and listen, echoing the nights spent in ritualised meditation in Marly forest by the members of Acéphale. During the talk, both familiar and unfamiliar narratives will be explored and the boundaries of fact and fiction will be blurred, thereby creating new mythologies or revising older ones. From an acorn, a glass of water grows.

Programme organised by CuratorLab to coincide with the Goldin+Senneby exhibition in Tensta Konsthall
