The second of two exhibitions in Berlin and New York, born out of a collaboration between No Longer Empty (New York), the Collegium Hungaricum (Berlin) and Celeste in 2010, on a curatorial theme developed by Manon Slome -
"an exhibition that takes the image as something concerned less with representation in an historical sense than as a tool for setting something into motion - whether it be action, emotion, a state of being or becoming; a sense that the image leads to something beyond the scope of the painting or photograph, that the moment we see in the frame is just the frozen predicament before what will happen next."
