20.09.24 – 24.11.24, Jelena Jureša, Aernout Mik, Run-through
Duo-exhibition Run-through is an encounter between Jelena Jureša and Aernout Mik. Jelena Jureša relates in her films, the last one of which is once again produced by nona, individual stories to collective processes of oblivion and remembrance, while Aernout Mik’s audiovisual installations chart the formation and transformation of group behaviours. With new and recent works, they sketch a critical portrait of our contemporary society. As such, Run-through reflects on historical facts, present)day European matters and political narratives.
Jelena Jureša is an artist and filmmaker born in former Yugoslavia. In her films, she unceasingly questions historical and political narratives, and tries to challenge our ideas of what is true. In Aphasia (2019) for instance, she deals with black chapters in European history, from Belgian colonialism to Austrian anti-semitism and atrocities in Bosnia during the Yugoslavian wars. Her work was internationally presented during Manifesta 14 Pristina and in argos (Brussels), Contour 9 (Mechelen), Maxim Gorki (Berlin) and BAK (Utrecht).
Jelena Jureša is affiliated as an artistic researcher to KASK & Conservatorium, the school of arts of HOGENT and howest. The research project Revolt! On a refusal to sing was financed by the HOGENT Arts Research Fund.
