“2 May” is an installation of preserved ritual objects from the past day of celebration, disobedience and postponed revolutions. The historically charged date of political and social resistance with its symbols, now a visual and philosophical sign to be used for social media posts – or is it a ritual staged anew every year, like the re-enactment of historical events to enable everyone to participate in the mythical tradition of paving stones and smoke torches?

“2.Mai” examines “oral history” of the “war stories” of the resistance as well as its symbolism. It refers to objects that are part of May Day, both in Germany and Finland. Currently, there is an urgent need to question the unjust and gentrifying development in urban and social space. The installation questions the methods of the past in terms of their relevance.

The artwork in the gallery space evolves and changes during the exhibition as parts of it are hung to dry and preserved.

The installation “2.Mai” by Antti Pussinen forms the 2nd part of exhibition series “am anderen Ort “.

Antti Pussinen lives and works in Berlin-Kreuzberg. His works have been exhibited at Kiasma, the Tampere Art Museum, Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4, Kuopio, Hyvink\u00e4\u00e4 and Kouvola Gallery, Helsinki, Freies Museum Berlin, Luisa Catucci Gallery, Berlin, and the Centre for Architecture in New York. In recent years, he has realised the spatial installations “Ries” and “the n:th wave”, among others, for Walden Art Exhibitions.<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

“2. Mai” ist eine Installation aus erhaltenen rituellen Objekten des vergangenen Tages der Feier, des Ungehorsams und aufgeschobener Revolutionen. Das historisch aufgeladene Datum des politischen und sozialen Widerstands mit seinen Symbolen, jetzt visuelles und philosophisches Zeichen zum Gebrauch f\u00fcr social-media Posts \u2013 oder ist es ein allj\u00e4hrlich aufs Neue inszeniertes Ritual, wie das \u201ere-enactement\u201c, die Wiederauff\u00fchrung historischer Ereignisse, um es allen zu erm\u00f6glichen, an der mythischen Tradition der Pflastersteine und Rauchfackeln teilzuhaben?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“2.Mai” untersucht die \u201eoral history\u201c, die m\u00fcndliche \u00dcberlieferung der “Kriegs-Geschichten” des Widerstandes sowie seine Symbolik. Es nimmt Bezug auf Objekte, die, sowohl in Deutschland als auch in Finnland, Teil des 1. Mai sind. Aktuell ist es dringend notwendig, die ungerechte und gentrifizierende Entwicklung im st\u00e4dtischen und sozialen Raum in Frage zu stellen. Die Installation befragt die Methoden der Vergangenheit im Hinblick auf ihre Relevanz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Das Kunstwerk im Galerieraum entwickelt und ver\u00e4ndert sich w\u00e4hrend der Ausstellung, da Teile davon zum Trocknen aufgeh\u00e4ngt und konserviert werden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Installation “2.Mai” von Antti Pussinen bildet den 2.Teil  Ausstellungsreihe “am anderen Ort “.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
