The Return of the Dawn – a composition by Nicholé Velásquez
In the autumn of 2012, our curatorial fellow Nicholé Velásquez lived and worked in the Free City of Christiania in Copenhagen. Under the influence of reading Nietzsche’s thoughts on the Eternal Return, Velásquez worked in Christiania on compositions he had created using a multiple exposure technique. Eleven years later, he returned to Christiana to live and work there once more; for the resumption, the return, the Second Coming is a central theme in Nicholé Velásquez’s work. The presentation is, as it were, a journey in compositions that reflect past impressions from his time in Christiania.
Nicholé Velásquez will begin his performance as part of the series “After the Market” on Saturday, 07 October 2023 at 12:30 pm. Admission is free.
