The exhibition Acts of Memory explores the agency of memory production in relation to the construction of identity and the creation of autobiographical narratives. Referring to both imaginary and actual spaces and the passage of time, the exhibition investigates the production, consumption and affects of memory. Some of the works will be produced in situ, for example Donoghue’s performance piece Performing Memory and a reading table consisting of texts selected by the artists from the Pori Art Museum’s archives and the artist’s own bookshelves.
Opening: Friday 27th November 2009, 6-8 p.m.
The project is supported by Nordic-Baltic Mobility Program.
