“The exhibition takes its starting point from a recent project initiated by Capitain Petzel during the Corona lockdown called Rhizome. Among the works presented online and later at the gallery was one of Sarah Morris’ films, Finite and Infinite Games. The work posits two opposing worldviews of politics, thinking, strategy and even creativity. This sparked the idea for the subsequent group show Infinite Games, which will open at Capitain Petzel on November 21, 2020. The exhibition encompasses 13 artists whose practices reflect the power that the deviant, ambiguous and disjointed can play both in art and society as a whole.” (Text excerpt from the press release by courtesy of Capitain Petzel)
