Room, Freedom
AN APPARTMENT-BASED SEMINAR
April 6th and 7th 2012, daytime.
Room, Freedom takes shape as an appartment-based seminar offering a series of symposia on the question of private space, and the critical import of displacing certain apparatuses (the exhibition, the seminar, talks and discussions) into the private sphere. The project's title, Room, Freedom, is an elliptical rendering of Emily Dickinson's phrase " This is the room of my freedom".
Schedule under construction.

ULLA VON BRANDENBURG
The Nonexistent Knight
February 15th to March 31st 2012
Opening on Wednesday, February 15th from 6pm to 10pm
Observe and dive into a world not only represented from the perspective of the real, but which one can also perceive through a play of specular duplication. Ulla von Brandenburg's works often move between such liminal spaces of the real — the spectral images in her drawings, her installations which plunge us into another world, and the highly dramatised mises-en-scène in her films. For her exhibition at Rosascape, Ulla von Brandenburg gives particular attention to the visual artifice of image duplication, of the meeting and confrontation of the real and its projection. Playing on the particular characteristics of the exhibition space — i.e., a private, domestic, intimate space, with a classical architectural style — the artist presents a series of new works here (videos, installations, drawings).
EXHIBITION
KATINKA BOCK
Tomorrow's words
From December 9th to February 3rd 2012
Opening on December 9th from 4 pm to 11 pm
Performance by Christian Jendreiko at 7.30 pm
Katinka Bock frequently presents memories as impressions in the form of rubbings, foldings or even as a puddle of water on the floor of an exhibition. As relics, her works reveal the temporality of the process itself and are akin to contemporary witnesses to a kind of stasis, or perhaps, the internalisation of actions. The visitor to the exhibition Les mots de demain (Tomorrow's words) encounters a host of traces of this sort, which is not unlike wading through sedimentary deposits.

More informations about the discussions here.
In his solo exhibition at Rosascape, Fabien Giraud shows several pieces for the first time which he brings together under the heading Du Mort Qui Saisit le Vif (la maison du dehors). Under this generic and programmatic title, the works shown at Rosascape are part of a long-term project that is conceived as a kind of technological saga and which might be summed up as follows: technology is not the preserve of man. There is no distinction between man's technological production and the more general production of nature at work.

TALK
BENOIT MAIRE
The aesthetics of differends
A talk with Benoît Maire, Corinne Enaudeau and Bruno Bosteels
November 11th at 7:30 pm.
The Aesthetics of Differends (a project started in 2008) is an artist's book which documents Benoît Maire's ongoing research on the "differend", a concept he borrows from philosopher Jean-François Lyotard. The book is both an artwork in itself and a philosophical and artistic exploration of the essential questions of postmodernity and the meaning of the postconceptual work of art. The first installment of texts and images was proposed in January 2011, a series of printed sections articulated around a first sequence entitled "Ontology of the There is".
