Hito Steyerl: Drill

DR I LL

HITO STEYERL 6.20–7.21.2019 HITO STEYERL

WELCOME The idea behind bringing the arts to the historic Park Avenue Armory was to allow artists to create unexpected, immersive and eclectic work in its unconventional spaces – from its soaring 55,000 square foot Wade Thompson Drill Hall with its elaborate truss work to its 16 period rooms with their whimsical and meticulous design. As a historic structure, the Armory offers not only sublime “found” spaces, but also an aura of history and mystery. We have been delighted over the past twelve years to see the range of artistic responses to the opportunity to create work at the Armory from the epic to the intimate, from the fanciful to the realistic, from the inspiring to the devastating and from the playful to the provocative.

In the area of visual arts, we have commissioned such visual artists as Aaron Young, Ernesto Neto, Christian Boltanski, Ann Hamilton, Nick Cave, Taryn Simon, Douglas Gordon, Ryoji Ikeda, Tom Sachs, Janet Cardiff, Paul McCarthy, Philippe Parreno, Martin Creed, Peter Greenaway, Ai Wei Wei, Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron, Marina Abramović and William Kentridge. For Drill, the most extensive survey of her work to-date in the United States, Hito Steyerl creates an installation that takes over the Armory, with two new commissions and eight works that have been completed in the last six years inviting audiences to confront a wide-range of topical issues across the social and political landscape including gun violence in America, tax-free enclaves for luxury goods but not for food, the international art business, and the dangers of algorithm-driven artificial intelligence. With accompanying talks, performances and conversations related to Drill presented as part of the Interrogations of Form Series, audiences will be encouraged to think beyond conventional interpretations and perspectives of art and politics.

ABOUT HITO STEYERL Hito Steyerl (b. 1966, Munich) is a German filmmaker, visual artist, and writer, whose practice occupies a highly discursive position between the fields of art, philosophy, and politics, exploring late capitalism’s social, cultural, and financial imaginaries.

Her films and lectures have increasingly addressed the presentational context of art, while her writing has circulated widely through publication in both academic and art journals, often online.

Recent and upcoming exhibitions include Hito Steyerl: Actual Reality OS at the Serpentine Galleries (April 2019 – January 2020), and the Biennale Arte 2019 May You Live In Interesting Times (May – November 2019). Past solo exhibitions have been held at Kunstmuseum, Basel (2018); The Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston (2017); the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (2016); Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, Madrid, Spain (2015); and the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago (2013). She has participated in numerous group exhibitions including the German Pavilion, 56th Venice Biennale, Venice, Italy; the Taipei Biennial; Gwangju Biennial (2010); documenta 12, Kassel (2007) and Manifesta 5. Steyerl is represented by Andrew Kreps Gallery, New York and Esther Schipper Gallery, Berlin.

INTERROGATIONS OF FORM ARTIST TALK: DRILL

PERFORMANCE LECTURE: DRILL

Hito Steyerl joins Anton Vidokle, artist and founder of e-flux, and Ayham Ghraowi, Producer and Assistant Director of Drill, in a conversation about the inspirations, ideas, and creative development of her ongoing practice. Curator Tom Eccles moderates.

The Dead Walk Into a Bar: Performance lecture by Anton Vidokle, Adam Khalil, and Bayley Sweitzer The distant future. An orbital facility of unknown origin.

Here, the debt of taking a life will be finally repaid…. through resurrection. The victims of military violence across time are systematically brought back to life and guided through the all-too-familiar facility. As a staff of identical ushers draws back layers of confusion and pain, the freshly resurrected gradually become aware of the reality of their corporeal reinsertion: perhaps the world of the living is not a world at all; to be alive in this place may merely be an exhibit. We, the resurrected, overwhelmed by a literal second life, will of course discover our one inevitable destination: a place to sit, have a drink, and talk it out.

PERFORMANCE LECTURE: DRILL

saturday, june 29, 2019 at 3:00pm tickets: $10 Learning/Unlearning of Violence: Performance Lecture by Vanessa Gravenor What remnants remain from the U.S.-Pakistani-Saudi proxy war in 1980s Afghanistan – those that continue to write themselves on bodies involved in terrorism, and in the War on Terror? This performance lecture by artist Vanessa Gravenor critically approaches political language coming from the upper echelons of the American government through its inverse: language inserted from below in pedagogy books funded

by USAID and other American backers trying to defeat the Soviets and distributed among the Afghani refugees along the Afghan-Pakistani border. Linguistic “lines of fire” are reversed in order to understand present-day feedback loops. The artist will additionally analyze a biographical vocabulary list used when undergoing PTSD therapy, following her injury in the November 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris.

CURATOR'S NOTE Hito Steyerl is a Berlin-based artist and theorist known for her immersive and politically incisive video installations. Entitled Drill, this exhibition includes new commissions, site-specific installations and innovative public programs, utilizing the entire ground floor of Park Avenue Armory and its historic rooms.

In the Wade Thompson Drill Hall, a tri-partite video begins with the statement “History is the art of highlighting whatever is hiding in plain sight.” Drums, brass and voices echo in the Wade Thompson Drill Hall. A newly commissioned work, Drill traverses the Park Avenue Armory spatially and temporally, situating different times and characters uncomfortably next to each other, to narrate a complex history of increasing gun violence and militarization in the United States. Sequences of the Park Avenue Amory's bullet-ridden basements, gilded interiors and witness testimonies from recent gun shootings unfold steadily to the beat of the gun violence data sonifications. Abstract data about the proliferation of weapons in the U.S. are transformed into the score for the performance of a precision marching band and form the background for the increasingly disturbing narrative. In Drill and other works in the exhibition, Steyerl's singular ability to bring seemingly disparate events, actors and forces into critical focus is visible throughout the myriad rooms her installations occupy.

This exhibition is the most extensive presentation to date of the artist’s wide-ranging practice in the United States and includes a number of collaborations. For Drill, Steyerl has been working with the Yale University Precision Marching Band. She is also collaborating with the El Catano Community Garden in East Harlem on the new work Free Plots which projects the possibilities for autonomous fragriculture. Community-based artist and activist Chris Toepfer has boarded up and painted the Armory's windows for the installation Broken Windows, a recent work that explores the urban repercussions of Artificial Intelligence. Steyerl has also commissioned artists Vanessa Gravenor and Anton Vidokle who collaborated with Adam Khalil and Bayley Sweitzer for the public programs. Both present new filmic material and lectures based on research and in response to Drill and its thematics.

The exhibition also presents a number of works produced by Steyerl in the past five years: including Broken Windows, Duty Free Art, The Tower, ExtraSpaceCraft, Robots Today, Is the Museum a Battlefield?, Prototype 1.0 and 1.1 and Hell Yeah We Fuck Die which provide an overview of Steyerl's uniquely compelling vision of our contemporary moment. Always present in these works, is Steyerl's investigation of how new technologies (and the private and governmental entities and actors that develop and deploy them) are complicit in real-life effects whether on the battlefield or the streets of our cities.

Taken together, the works in the exhibition exemplify Holland Cotter's comment in The New York Times that “Steyerl refuses to nail down a single idea, or insist on a point of view. Instead, we get art as an act of moral thinking-in-progress. In a very of-themoment, digital-age way, the logic of that thinking is fractured, the nature of morality suspect. But a belief in the necessity of thinking, restlessly, politically, is it ever in doubt.”

Disturbing and disruptive (particularly with regard to enhanced data gathering, surveillance technologies, the military complex and “off-shore” banking), Steyerl's wide-ranging practice offers a frightening portrait of our time, offering the possibility of artist as investigative journalist and an art as an alarm bell to our time.

3-channel video installation 21 mins, HD video The tri-partite video begins with the statement “History is the art of highlighting whatever is hiding in plain sight”.

Drums, brass and voices echo in the Wade Thompson Drill Hall.

THE TOWER (2016)

3-channel video installation, environment 8 min, HD Video The Tower is the portrait of a Ukranian 3D company that once designed a shooter game set on the Tower of Babel.

Now, they themselves live under the shadow of looming invasion as they are located close to the Russian border. The company is built on the model of “near shore” (in opposition to offshore) and takes on outsourced gigs for online casinos, emergency simulations, real estate and shooter games. The video addresses a global network of technological production that continues to expand. For this work, the artist collaborates with Charkiv-based, Program-Ace.

Board of Officers Room

EXTRASPACECRAFT (2017) 3-channel video installation, environment 12 min 50 sec, HD Video ExtraSpaceCraft shuttles between two different times and spaces. Previously a space that was the Iraqi National Observatory get transformed into an Autonomous Space Agency which the artist adopts as her subject to evoke the virtual dimension existing within the realities of state-controlled territories and their militarization. Shot primarily through the viewpoint of the drone, the narrator becomes the drone to access the Earth from ‘a different angle’.

BROKEN WINDOWS (2018-2019) Video installation and environment: Broken Windows (2018): single-channel HD video 6 min. 40 sec.; Unbroken Windows (2018): single-channel HD video 10 min.; Environment: Painted plywood panels, wood easels Referencing the controversial “broken windows” policing theory; proposing that the smallest sign of disorder (eg—a broken window) suggests an uncared for environment conditioning it for the occurence of more serious crimes; a twopart video and installation, Broken Windows begins in Camden, New Jersey. With sophisticated policing technology, including microphones that detect gunshots, the work moves through abandoned houses in the city, where the protagonist, Chris Toepfer and his team of community activists replace the gaping holes left by the broken windows with painted canvases. In a second video, set in a hangar in London, researchers diligently smash numerous glass windows to train artificial intelligence to recognize the sound of breaking glass. Using the metaphorical and material qualities of a broken window, the work symbolizes social disruption and technology’s role in it. The main corridor at the Park Avenue Armory will be boarded up with specially commissioned paintings by Toepfer.

Colonels Reception Room

FREEPLOTS (2019) Wooden planters in freeport shapes, grow lights, compost, plants, audio 12 min. 14 sec.

A new site-specific collaboration with the El Catano Community Garden in East Harlem, the work references both tax-free “freeports” and the possibility for crop production that does not require land ownership. Large planters have been filled with horse manure compost acquired from the revenue of freeport art sales and planted with flamboyant flowers. Counterering notions of private ownership and limited access of land, the project sets a live example of a dispersed, non-national and open-source territory and a community built around it. Starting with a single community in East Harlem, the project attempts a mobile scalable model encouraging food sovereignty and sustainability that will be extended further to other communities in Canada and Germany. armoryonpark.org | @ParkAveArmory | #PAADrill

DUTY FREE ART (2015)

3-channel video installation, environment 38 min 21 sec, HD Video Striking deep at the social function of art, Duty Free Art is a critique of the international art business that functions discreetly and deviously. Drawing unsettling comparisons between the art business world and civil war, the work highlights how they both facilitate the concentration of wealth into fewer hands and contribute to the growing global inequality. It builds a thread of connections between leaked emails from Syrian government accounts, and the growing phenomenon of the “freeports” – storage facilities where millions of dollars of artworks are held without incurring taxes to expose the true conditions of the art world masked behind the art itself.

IS THE MUSEUM A BATTLEFIELD? (2013) Lecture and HD video

The question posed in the title of the work (a lecture by the artist) is drawn out through several historical and contemporary examples, to a point of un-deniability of the links between the museum and the battlefield. In a quest to identify the origins of the bullet that killed the artist’s friend, Andrea Wolf, a PKK (Kurdish Workers’ Party) fighter, in 1998, the work traces a diabolic military-cultural network that the artist shockingly finds herself caught up in. In this case, the bullet manufacturer is found to be a sponsor of the Istanbul Biennial and the patron of the Art Institute of Chicago, both prominent locations where the artist’s work is displayed. In this sense, the work, which attempts an abolishment of the museum-battlefield, unknowingly, becomes a part of it.

Veterans Room and Library

HELL YEAH WE FUCK DIE (2016) 3-channel video installation, environment 4 min, HD Video Tubular barricades and corrugated metal structures installed in the space partition it like a parkour obstacle course.

Compiled audiovisual footage from product-testing labs show humanoid robots being tested for their balance.

Bombarded with computer simulated as well as physical force, robots are often seen crumbling, drooping and disintegrating in these virtual and real world examples. The videos are synchronized to an original soundtrack created

by Kassem Mosse, based on HELL YEAH WE FUCK DIE—the five most frequently used English words on Billboard magazine’s music charts for the past decade. The same words appear as neon letters encased in solid concrete blocks further dividing the space. In capturing the vulnerability of even our most sophisticated forms of technology, the work charts the obsessive search for speed and efficiency and highlights its eventual fallibility. Library

ROBOTS TODAY (2016) 8 min, HD Video

Robots Today is a video work set in the Kurdish city of Diyarbakır, in South-Eastern Turkey, the center of which was largely destroyed in 2016 by the Turkish Military. The polymath, Al-Jazarī, worked in the city and wrote about mechanical apparatuses and instructions on how to construct them in the year 1205, a work that is known as Automata in Western culture. The narration on Al-Jazarī combined with the footage of the city is interjected by questions addressed to the mobile phone voice assistance: Who destroyed the city? Who expelled the people? What role does computer technology play in war?

PROTOTYPE 1.0 and 1.1 (2017) Foam and aluminum

Shown alongside Steyerl's Hell Yeah We Fuck Die, Hito Steyerl’s Prototype 1.0 and 1.1, are sculptural renderings of the two robots shown within the larger video installation. The blue robot skeletons, one giant the other diminutive, evoke both humor and pathos, the "younger" figure looking down over the prone counterpart, reminiscent of a cartoonish sci-fi fiction set in some distant future or outer space, yet all too real and present as demonstrated by the videos in Hell Yeah We Fuck Die.

NEXT AT THE ARMORY ANTIGONE

ARTISTS STUDIO

Acclaimed director Satoshi Miyagi creates a new vision of Sophocles's fabled mythology through the prism of Japanese culture, blending the riveting Greek masterpiece about loss and memorialization with Japanese culture, Noh Theater, Indonesian shadow play, and Buddhist philosophy.

“And in a sense, the Veterans Room, of all the Armory’s opulent reception rooms, has the deepest spiritual kinship with a work of contemporary art, the feel of an installation by a young collective whose members were reacting to one another and making it all up as they went along.”

Thompson Arts Center at Park Avenue Armory | 643 Park Avenue at 67th Street

ABOUT PARK AVENUE ARMORY Since its first production in September 2007, Park Avenue Armory has organized and commissioned immersive performances, installations, and cross-disciplinary collaborations in its vast Wade Thompson Drill Hall that defy traditional categorization and challenge artists to push the boundaries of their practice. Part American palace, part industrial shed, the Armory supports unconventional that need non-traditional spaces for their full realization, enabling artists to create productions that cannot be done elsewhere in New York City. The New Yorker recently declared: “The Armory programming is essential to New York life.”

Production highlights in the Wade Thompson Drill Hall include; Ernesto Neto’s sprawling and gauzy anthropodino; the event of a thread, a site-specific installation by Ann Hamilton; the final performances of the Merce Cunningham Dance Company across three separate stages; WS by Paul McCarthy, a dystopian installation of excess; Macbeth with Kenneth Branagh set in a Scottish heath; Bach’s St. Matthew Passion staged by Peter Sellars, performed by Sir Simon Rattle and the Berliner Philharmoniker; Heiner Goebbels’ De Materie with a flock of 100 sheep; an acclaimed The Hairy Ape, starring Bobby Cannavale; Simon Stone’s award-winning Yerma, starring Billie Piper; Nick Cave’s The Let Go, an immersive, multi-sensory dance-based town hall; William Kentridge’s devastating The Head & The Load; and Sam Mendes’ The Lehman Trilogy.

In its historic period rooms, the Armory presents smaller scale performances, including its acclaimed Recital Series, with worldrenowned soloists within the intimate and restored Board of Officers Room; and the Artists Studio, an eclectic series curated by Jason Moran in the restored Veterans Room. The Armory also offers a talk series called Interrogations of Form that explores, with a diverse artistic community, the issues of our time, including changing demographics in the US; what it means to be a sanctuary City; and the history of violence.

Park Avenue Armory was built between 1877 and 1881 by the Seventh Regiment, a volunteer unit of the National Guard that included the economic leaders of New York. It has been hailed as containing “the single most important collection of nineteenth century interiors to survive intact in one building” by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission. The 55,000-square-foot Wade Thompson Drill Hall, with an 80-foot-high barrel-vaulted roof, is one of the largest unobstructed spaces in New York City. The Armory’s magnificent reception rooms were designed by leaders of the American Aesthetic Movement, among them Louis Comfort Tiffany, Stanford White, Candace Wheeler, and Herter Brothers. The building is currently undergoing a $210-million renovation designed by Herzog & de Meuron with Platt Byard Dovell White Architects.

In “Drill”, the Armory has commissioned Hito Steyerl to create a site-specific installation as part of its ongoing visual arts program. Steyerl’s practice blends fact, fiction, and documentary style storytelling to provoke visceral responses to most pressing issues of our times.

The Armory also counts its arts education program as a major part of its mission, offered at no cost to New York City public schools. The program serves thousands of students a year includes: a student-only performance for every Armory production with pre-and post-visit workshops; partnership with eight under-resourced New York City public schools; and the Armory Youth Corps, a paid and closely-mentored creativity-based internship program offering over 100 students a year 13,400 hours of paid employment and job training.
