Performance: András Cséfalvay
Future Role of the Church in the Forthcoming Environmental Transformation
Length: 01 hours 00 minutes
Visual artist and mythopoet András Cséfalvay will perform an audiovisual piece on the roof of GAMPA as a part of the closing event of the 2026 Biennale Matter of Art. His piece will contribute to the main exhibition’s multitude of visions, speculations, and imaginaries of possible futures. Whether visionary, seemingly naive, unrealistic, or out of place, the work of imagination is vital for shaping the commons. Imagination is labor, and extending social, political, and artistic imagination expands possible futures. These futures are not extensions of the present but radical otherness attainable only through breakthroughs in today’s uncertain political landscapes. Departing from the idea of free and universal access to the cosmic sky as a repository of knowledge and imagination, the contributions explore the horizons of future-oriented thinking across different yet equally significant scales.
