Then, Now, and Then Architecture from Arkansas to California

from Arkansas to California

The 8th svara deals with topics such as social housing

Understanding techno as narrative device

both as an industry and a medium of fine arts

Infinitely recessive corridors in this gleamy nowhere space plugged one inside like the roving vortex of a dark star

Then, Now, and Then Architecture from Arkansas to CaliforniaThen, Now, and Then consists of 16 films that Marijke van Warmerdam made during her stay in Rome in 2017 and subsequent visits to the city. All the films are loops, and most last no longer than a few minutes. They portray life on the street as the artist takes us on a walk through the city. Distance and proximity, visibility and invisibility, movement and rotation alternate as the films show how the dynamism of the Baroque lives on in todays Rome.
