While Europe and the world are entangled in their own
contradictions in celebrating economic growth and technical
progress as the salvation horizon of humanity, Filip Markiewicz
proposes to dive into a universe of signs and images that reflect
the emptiness of our current discourses. He imagines his
exhibitions as stages on which individuals are invited to watch the
decline of their own civilisation. The myth of the automobile ends
in desolate cemeteries of rusted engines and useless tires; giant
bank notes stand for the deceptive show of perverted politics and
media (self-)representation. As the artist stated in his theatre
performance Fake Fiction (Theater Basel, 2017): "Today, we have all
somehow turned into Bela Lugosi. The dance of the vampires of the
European image can begin. It's time to put on the masks and drink
the digital blood until our hard drive is formatted for eternity."
