Condensation Cube Project
(2018)

ISET, Athens

Condensation Cube is the outcome of ten years of internet news items and commentary collected by Vassilis Vlastaras. Presented initially in the site www.condensationcube.com, this material provides a topography of the political, economic, social and cultural reality in Greece. It condenses the socio-political reflexes of a country in crisis, the changes in public discourse and the new ethos in culture and communication.

The archive is now presented on the premises of ISET, acquiring a temporary spatial dimension. The presentation is complemented by a publication which proposes an alternative structuring of the material together with texts by various authors. The presence of the archive at ISET will trigger a weekly programme of lectures and discussions with artists, researchers and prominent figures of public life in recent years.

Concept, artistic implementation: Vassilis Vlastaras
Curators: Charis Kanellopoulou, Kostis Stafylakis
The exhibition is organised with support from the NEON Organisation for Culture & Development
