«The Darknet - From Memes to Onionland. An Exploration»
From 18th October 2014 – 11th January 2015
Kunsthalle St. Gallen in collaboration with !Mediengruppe Bitnik and :digital brainstorming
With: !Mediengruppe Bitnik, Anonymous, Cory Arcangel, Aram Bartholl, Heath Bunting, Simon Denny, Eva and Franco Mattes , Seth Price, Robert Sakrowski, Hito Steyerl, Valentina Tanni
There is a parallel world beneath the surface of the Internet: the
Darknet is an encrypted, invisible network that cannot be accessed
by conventional browsers or search engines but is nevertheless used
by millions. This digital territory is the impulse for cooperation
between the artist collective !Mediengruppe Bitnik, the project
:digital brainstorming from Migros-Kulturprozent and Kunst Halle
Sankt Gallen.
Forms of organisation, structures and communications systems which
penetrate everyday life but which are largely unknown to the public
will be examined with the help of other artists, theoreticians and
hackers.
The exhibition «The Darknet - From Memes to Onionland.
An Exploration» will open Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen for
interdisciplinary expeditions and encompass themes such as
copyright, privacy, illegality and resistance.
