A result of modern reality with traces to the ancient past. A burst, as well as a brutal form of introspection, with clear structural elements as well as intense personal stakes. A situation which brings the issues and qualities of the participants to the surface while at the same time harbouring them from their usual situations. The rave culture is without question difficult to define fully, but from its beginnings (late ‘80s-early ’90s) until today it has covered under its umbrella a huge musical and socio-anthropological spectrum, reflecting a large part of the modern psyche.
In the exhibition “When the rave is done”, six works with different reference points are synthesised, creating a narrative for the past, the future and the essence of rave, without aiming to a complete or objective description of the phenomenon. participants: Antonis Kalagkatsis + Timos alexandropoulos Constantine Lianos George Moraitis G. Konstantinidis (AKA Voltnoi) Giannis Galiatsos Themistoklis Pantazakos.
