| "THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING" "Thank you for your understanding" is the title of a work by artist Simon Kentgens, which will be shown in the 2nd Antakya Biennial. It refers to the signs we often see in the city, when public or private interventions obstruct our common spaces. In the context of Antakya, "Thank you for your understanding" is a way to address the relationship between the city and its inhabitants, but also between the biennial and its local public, as a mutual effort for understanding and working together. More generally, "Thank you for your understanding" explores the im/possibilities of finding a common ground on which we can stand as public - both in the exhibition and in the city. | ||
