Back to the Future

TIRANA, March 7 – A collective exhibition consisting in a configuration of the history of art starting from its primitive beginnings to present day will open on Saturday, March 9, at the newly opened The apartment gallery near the zoo park in the capital. The exhibition is a continuation of the “Then and Now” show focusing on the concept of time, memory, historicism and the way art reflects the paradox of time it is cultivated or manipulated. Back to the Future targets introducing the concept of the exhibition which must focus on the element of time and not space. Maybe because of the fact that time is the only element which we cannot possess as a children’s game. This is an exhibition which eliminates the element of space replacing it with a new binomial such as time and the public in it, a human resource which is the main goal of every performance, organizers say. Back to the Future includes works by both foreign and Albanian authors starting from ancient times, the Renaissance period, modernism, socialist realism, post industrialism, post-colonialism. It will remain open to the public until March 20.
