Past Desire
Vergangenes Begehren
What connects a personal history to an official historical narrative? What role does the unconscious play when constructing the past and collective thought? What desire is hidden between the different forms of memory culture and historical awareness – the personal, the subjective and the collective – with regard to major social and cultural changes, political transformation and technological evolution? This catalogue brings together ten international artists who work with psychological perspectives that make history and memory visible and tangible as fraught processes of reflection and the past as a mythical narrative.
