Twin Stranger: Entangled State, a new work by @GeorgiouTolley premieres at Coventry Biennial of Contemporary Art, 4 Oct-24 Nov 2019. The audio/visual installation (featuring Jack Klaff & Concretism), alludes to the anxieties surrounding mass surveillance & data gathering, via digital doppelgängers.

In the lead up to this year’s Biennial of Contemporary Art, Coventry Artspace is presenting a trailer for the new work as part of its Screen Times moving image programme, curated by Ryan Hughes

'Twin Stranger: Entangled State'  Coming soon from Georgiou & Tolley. Concerned with the anxieties surrounding mass surveillance, data gathering and digital doppelgängers. Featuring Jack Klaff with music by Concretism. 

‘The Graveside Orations of Carl Einstein’, edited by Dale Holmes and Sharon Kivland (published by MA Bibliotheque’). We are delighted to be have been amongst the contributors for this new publication. The book will be launched mid June in Berlin, and London in September, and marks the centenary since the execution of philosopher, anti-war activist and revolutionary socialist, Rosa Luxemburg. The collected writings imagine what writer Carl Einstein (anarchist and art historian) might have spoken in memoriam at her funeral. #TheGravesideOrationsOfCarlEinstein with its themes of counter history from the future past - align with our own wider work and research; #Art #Resistance #Hauntology all often involving the tension between truth, fiction, history and memory. 

‘Everything But The Cat (Twin Stranger at the Hotel Berolina)’.                     A Radio-Film by Georgiou&Tolley about how times and places feel. 

A playlist constructed in the spirit of Karl-Marx-Allee and based on playful philosophy, abstract concepts of un-knowing, identity, time, and space. Sounds that often allude to secrecy and surveillance, or the history of division, acts of creative resistance and the struggle for freedom. With its origins in the Cold War; the construction of the Berlin Wall, its ultimate fall and reunification by the peaceful revolution of 1989.

Magician: Walking Back the Cat

Evoking spies, secrets and lies, the work concerns Remote Viewing (sensing with the mind) and more broadly, collective anxieties surrounding mass surveillance. Referencing both the historical and contemporary issue of consent and control, Georgiou & Tolley prompt a key question of our time – Who’s watching who?

Green and environmental design principles encourage an ecological approach to the monitoring and use of energy. In turn, this raises an awareness and encourages sustainability. We are slowly seeing some achievements in environmentally aware art and design.
