SUMMARY:Cultivating Legibilities of Disagreement with The Department of Unusual Certainties\, Pamila Matharu\, and Public Studio
DESCRIPTION:2 pm-4 pm\nAll ages welcome\nFree courtesy of TD Bank Group (no registration required)\nFloor 4\nPlease arrive 15 minutes early \nThe Department of Unusual Certainties\, Pamila Matharu\, Public Studio explore disagreement in different disciplines including urban geographies\, pedagogy\, and architecture. \nRehearsing Disagreement \nHiba Abdallah and Justin Langlois Rehearsing Disagreement is the first project in MOCA’s Art in Use series on MOCA’s Floor 4. The project comprises of four participatory works that explore disagreement and conflict through the lens of art and within the structure of museum. Inviting visitors to share their lived experiences\, the artists present the argument that co-existing in difference is a generative part of our civic responsibility. \nAs an extension to their project a weekend program\, Cultivating Legibilities of Disagreement\, features participatory activities\, talks\, and workshops that frame the question: how does disagreement play a useful role in our everyday? By identifying the positive effects of differences\, participants can develop the skill of agreeing to disagree. \n  \nBios \nThe Department of Unusual Certainties is a multi-disciplinary studio who designs a collaborative process for engagement\, communication and education. \nIn 2010\, DOUC started as a result of a shared need to ask questions about our everyday existence. This curiosity continues to grow and has manifested over the years through projects that traverse urban design\, public art\, education\, cartography and social engagement. \nPamila Matharu (Birmingham\, UK\, 1973- ) is an immigrant-settler with an interdisciplinary practice as an artist\, educator\, and cultural producer. She engages close readings of gaps\, omissions and fissures of the unexamined intersectional life and the everyday. A graduate of Visual Arts and Fine Arts Education from York University (2002)\, she’s been grant recipient from the Toronto\, Ontario and Canada Art Councils and continues to contribute to Toronto artist-run culture community for over the past 24 years; that has primarily focused on artist-run cultural production\, advocacy\, and art-worlding. Her upcoming solo show One of These Things are Not Like the Other\, debuts at A Space Gallery\, March 15 – April 20\, 2019. \nPublic Studio is the collective art practice of filmmaker Elle Flanders and architect Tamira Sawatzky. Public Studio creates large-scale public artworks\, lens-based works\, films\, and immersive installations\, which focus on conflict and landscape in the everyday. \nHiba Abdallah is a text-based artist who often works with others to develop public installations\, projects\, and exhibitions about the narratives of place. Abdallah’s work cultivates a playful yet reverent sense of community that seeks to foster collective public imagination. \nJustin Langlois is an artist\, organizer\, and currently an Associate Professor and Assistant Dean of Integrated Learning in the Faculty of Culture + Community at Emily Carr University of Art and Design. His practice explores collaborative structures\, critical pedagogy\, and custodial frameworks as tools for gathering\, learning\, and making. \n  \nAccessibility: \nMOCA Toronto is a barrier-free and accessible museum for all. We are located on the first five floors of the Tower Automotive Building\, with elevators serving each floor. The museum has wheelchair and stroller parking as well as two walkers and wheelchairs available onsite for use. If you have other needs we should know about\, contact us at visitorexperience@mocalegacy.webpreview.site ahead of time to make any arrangements. \n  \n\n  \nHiba Abdallah and Justin Langlois\, Failing is a Matter of Perspective – Rehearsing Disagreement Commission\, 2018.

SUMMARY:DEMOS - A Reconstruction - Nuit Blanche at MOCA
DESCRIPTION:DEMOS – A Reconstruction\, 2018 \n74 vinyl-covered foam modules \nRelationships that are constantly negotiated in the age of the Internet are explored in three dimensions by Andreas Angelidakis’s DEMOS – A Reconstruction. \nThe work consists of 74 foam modules that have been arranged for Nuit Blanche into a fixed structure designed by the artist. This amphitheatre-like space can be used as seating from which to watch three videos that trace the story of Angelidakis’s first Soft Ruin that was produced in 2007 to his current installation at MOCA. \nWorks on show: \nTetris Mountain\, 2003 \nBuilding an Electronic Ruin\, 2011 \nMINERVA\, 2014 \nPlease note that for Nuit Blanche the installation of DEMOS – A Reconstruction is a fixed structure and the modules should not be moved. \n  \n“I started out as an architect\, working in online communities such as Active Worlds and Second Life. I was part of a collective called NEEN\, which in the early 2000s explored the new boundaries of Art Online\, or what we used to call “the emotional landscape of the Internet.” I built worlds for our group\, places where we could hang out as avatars and pretend to be together. I tried to understand what the architecture of the internet could be\, what kind of buildings would grab the fleeting attention span of the online human. \nA few years later\, I visited Second Life again\, and found some of my abandoned buildings\, looking as new as when I copy-pasted and re-coded modules to build them. I began to think of how I could make an electronic building age gracefully\, instead of just looking dated. I went back to Second Life\, and tried to teach a building how to become a ruin. \nSomewhere in the process\, I turned my electronic ruin into soft building parts\, upholstered with digitally printed textures. On these new ruins\, visitors could comfortably lie down to watch the story of my Soft (ware) Ruin.” \nExtract from text by Andreas Angelidakis \n\nLast entry time: 6:30 a.m. \n  \nAccessibility: \nMOCA Toronto is a barrier-free and accessible museum for all. We are located on the first five floors of the Tower Automotive Building\, with elevators serving each floor. The museum has wheelchair and stroller parking as well as two walkers and wheelchairs available onsite for use. If you have other needs we should know about\, contact us at visitorexperience@mocalegacy.webpreview.site ahead of time to make any arrangements. \nAndreas Angelidakis\, Installation View DEMOS – A Reconstruction\, 2018. Museum of Contemporary Art Toronto Canada.
