On two video monitors installed back to back in the middle of the exhibition space, the visitor can view the remaining documentary video footage from the performances. Central in this presentation, however, stands the absence of their representation, a spatial void. On the surrounding walls, a linear sequence of A3-size paper sheets bearing a series of numbers corresponds to the chronological development of Monastyrski\u0026rsquo;s performance art trajectory, while also highlighting the artist\u0026rsquo;s interest in numerical systems and the absolute poetry of mathematics. The numbers refer to the time that passed between any two performances. Thus this in-between time is represented, expressed in months. The first number and the last number being exactly identical allows time\u0026rsquo;s straightforward arrow to suddenly become a circle, closing in upon itself - Monastyrski\u0026#39;s work seems almost custom-made for M HKA\u0026#39;s unique circular space.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003eHet werk geeft een samenvattend overzicht van Monastyrski\u0026#39;s invloedrijke carri\u0026egrave;re op het vlak van performance-kunst waarbij tegelijk de nadruk wordt gelegd op de interesse van de kunstenaar voor numerieke systemen en voor de absolute po\u0026euml;zie van de wiskunde. Op twee videomonitoren in het midden van de tentoonstellingsruimte kan de bezoeker kijken naar wat nog rest aan documentair videomateriaal van een aantal performances. Centraal in deze presentatie staat echter hun representatief ontbreken, een ruimtelijke leegte. Over de hele lengte van de muur zien we een sequens van A3-papiervellen waarop telkens \u0026eacute;\u0026eacute;n cijfer is afgedrukt; op de linker- en rechterkant van elk blad staan telkens de data van twee opeenvolgende performances aangegeven. De performances vinden dus \u0026lsquo;plaats\u0026rsquo; in de leegte van de muur tussen twee vellen, en de getallen in het midden van deze papiervellen verwijzen naar het aantal maanden dat de voorgaande performance van de daaropvolgende scheidden. Niet toevallig stemt het eerste cijfer exact overeen met het laatste, waarmee de cirkel van Monastyrski\u0026rsquo;s artistieke levensloop zich voorbeeldig lijkt te sluiten: het werk is zowel een formeel-artistieke als intellectuele reflectie op \u0026rsquo;s mans carri\u0026egrave;re als performer.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[{"id":34,"name":"Andrei Monastyrski ","category":{"en":"Creator","nl":"Vervaardiger","fr":"Créateur"}}]}
