DJ Toasting
Eva Eisenbacher_Steffi Parlow
Always these annoying trends. Today one thing, tomorrow another. Buy something and a short time later, it’s totally useless and superfluous. Old things must make way for the new. A sheer endless loop. And yet, there are certain things we cannot do without. Eisenbacherand Parlow stockpile these discarded things and give them a second chance.
Eva Eisenbacherand Steffi Parlowinvite exhibition visitors to be part of this accumulation. "DJ Toasting" celebrates these personalised objects. Work-out meets greasy fingers. Come and join in the fitness sit-in and rolling around/balling up.
"DJ Toasting" is the second of three openings in the frame of the “growing” exhibition Ping Pong in VERSUCHSANSTALT. For three sub-openings, Kunsthalle Exnergasse teamed up a female artist with an artist or one of the WUK workshops.
Each of the interdisciplinary collaborations forms a contribution that integrates into the VERSUCHSANSTALT project in a performative, installative, or accumulative way. Taking on various forms, the interventions respond to each other, intrude, oscillate between genres, or distance themselves from what is present in the space.
