"Andrea Solstad and Vijay Masharani November 25 26, 2022 Locations and times at halle-fuer-kunst.de Halle für Kunst Lüneburg Reichenbachstraße 221335 Lüneburg, Germany In parking lots and an auto shop in Lüneberg, Andrea Solstad's lecture "Talking Machine" addresses an automotive audience in a chorus of voices. Birds chirp like a car alarm. YouTubers accurately imitate the sound of racing engines using an aluminum can (a viral video update to kid car play). Employing these and a variety of other technical means, she attempts to connect with internal combustion engines. They are the gasoline-powered masses threatened with replacement, export, and recycling. Vijay Masharani's lecture, "Studies in Unlikeability," is interspersed with snippets from other speakers: a lullaby stitched together from a video greeting recorded by the artist's father during the 2020 California wildfires; the contrapunto of two contrasting monologues recorded on public transport; a short segment of an extemporaneous answer by Ruth Wilson Gilmore during a Zoom "q + a"... He uses eliminations, loops, and subtle sonic transformations to charge the potential of these loaded sources. Andrea Solstad is a research-based artist and sculptor who lives and works in New York. She works as an educator, as well as collaborating with a variety of artists and performers as a fabricator and technician. Her work has recently been presented in exhibitions at Sculpture Center, Queens; Socrates Sculpture Park, Queens; and Callicoon Gallery, New York. Vijay Masharani is an artist based in New York. He received his BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2017 and his MA in Race, Ethnicity, Postcolonial Studies at University College London in 2022, where his research centered on the works of W. E. B. Du Bois. Select solo and two-person exhibitions include Triage at Clima, Milan; #38: Gas, Honey with Raza Kazmi at Museum Gallery, New York; and his work has also been shown at Helena Anrather, New York; Shoot the Lobster LA; and Interstate Projects, New York. His writing has appeared Artforum, Momus, BOMB and The Brookyn Rail."-- provided by distributor.
