STOP & GO.
Pull over to the pit and then start again. Come to a standstill and go with the flow.

Halt and advance.

Artfarm restarts after the stop. It is said and not said in this year’s Call. Hold and release. The rhythm of STOP & GO is syncopated and non-linear: You don’t acclimate to the restarts; You don’t adapt to unvarying linear motion, nor to stimulus or provocation.

What the Call is looking for this year is the going jeopardized by stopping and the stopping ready to take off again. A traffic signal between the “already” and the “not yet”, the present and the after.

This year’s Call despises the soft and loves the abrupt.

The Call seeks a reflex, an impulse with a built-in brake. An art that is not paralysis or immobility but which also does not escape sideways or forwards. It looks for a hiccup, an intermittence. And it is in that irregularity that the spectator finds themselves, not knowing when the green or the red will flash. An impertinent discontinuity, with yesterday and with tomorrow.
