THE KEEPERS AND GRAVITY (SATELLITE THE HOME)

Arseny Zhilyaev*

28.08 - 29.11.2020 / Bel Horizon (registration required)

As a Satellite venue for the central exhibition programme Traits d’union.s and its plot The Home, Bel Horizon presents The Keepers. One-dimensional Sphere Game and The Gravity, works by participant Arseny Zhilyaev.

The Keepers. One-dimensional Sphere Game presents fragments of a museum exhibition from a potential future. The costume display commemorates a football match from the dystopian future of Marseille, an ultra-defensive version of the game with only goalkeepers left. The teams are police, local residents, activists, artists – social groups often involved in conflict. These four sculptural displays are hosted by different institutions throughout the city: a historic 19th-century bourgeois home transformed into a museum; the residential skyscraper Bel Horizon from the 1950s, which is in need of renovation and the new luxurious rental experience of Hôtel Dieu Intercontinental.

The Gravity is a participatory performance. The project developed out of Arseny Zhilyaev’s ongoing experiments with live action role-playing (LARPing) – a genre of real-life role-playing game where participants negotiate their actions according to a shared script.
