 *The 6th Momentum Biennial*
*Imagine Being Here Now*
18 June–2 October 2011
*Moss Norway*

 www.momentum.no

 *Fifty international artists take part in the 6th Momentum Biennial
entitled Imagine Being Here Now opening on Saturday 18 June. Five Nordic
curators collaborated on creating this year's exhibition, which will take
place in different places in and around the town of Moss in Norway and
stretch to the capitals of the Nordic countries.*

*Imagine Being Here Now:*
The exhibition, *Imagine Being Here Now*, is predicated upon a conviction
that the complexities of orientating the world depend on factors of memory
and imagination that inevitably transpire within time and space. Indeed, we
tend to emphasize the latter when considering human experience, but for each
individual time and space expands back and forth, up and down and even
sideways (to whatever elements each person takes into consideration at any
given moment). The inherent present of each individual not only extends to
momentary impressions but to his or her past as well as their expectations
of the future, owing to the fact that we have the ability to imagine being
somewhere else entirely, in any other place at any other time.

*Location:*
In extension to the two venues that usually house Momentum, Gallery F15—a
historic countryside villa, and Momentum kunsthall—a former brewery in the
city center, the exhibition engages The Solberg Tower—an empty high-rise
near the city of Moss. Furthermore, projects intervene in the exhibition
infrastructure at unexpected hours and sites throughout Momentum. One of
those events will be an itinerant performance program presenting itself
around the Nordic region in the fall.

*Publications:*
The 6th Momentum Biennial catalogue consists of two publications, a Reader
and an Index. Indicatory of an exhibition venturing to pin down, stretch and
animate the experience of time in standstill, motion and reverse, the
catalogue parallels the multiple layers of presentation and expressions
characterizing the exhibition. The Reader is launched prior to the opening
of the exhibition while the Index will be released at the very end of the
exhibition, both published by Mousse Publishing. Texts in Reader by Elena
Agudio, Markús Þór Andrésson, Carson Chan, Manuel Cirauqui, Stefan
Heidenreich, Ronald Jones, Karl Larsson, Raqs Media Collective, Theodor
Ringborg, Aura Seikkula, Christian Skovbjerg Jensen & Wooloo, Fatoş Üstek,
Marianne Zamecznik & Øystein Aasan. Images in Index by Vegard Kleven.
