Overview

If trailers are concentrated and exaggerated promises, and if their deferral produces intensities of its own kind, then how do build-up, anticipation, expectation, suspense, deception as well as disappointment function once they are stretched, compacted or simply blurred? The exhibition is also an implicit reflection around the status and condition of the material with regards to the British Art Show 7/ In the Days of the Comet, for which some of it is produced as a series of audio-visual soundtracks, to be installed in each of the twelve venues through which the show travels between October 2010 and December 2011. What is experienced in dispersal and distracted encounter across the various iterations of British Art Show 7 / In the Days of the Comet is here isolated and played through its own internal dynamic.
