A film series to complement the exhibition Readings From Below, in collaboration with the Arsenal – Institute for Film and Video Art

Conflictual Topography III
For the third iteration of the public program Conflictual Topography, organized by Heidi Ballet, and on the occasion of the exhibition of Zhou Tao: Winter North Summer South, Daniela Ortiz’s film The Empire of Law is screened online between August 19 and August 26, 2020
Conflictual Topography II
The series Conflictual Topography, organized by Heidi Ballet, was originally conceived as a public program during the exhibition of Zhou Tao: Winter North Summer South and was later adapted to the exceptional months we are living through. Heidi Ballet talks with Xiang Zairong, a researcher, theorist, and sometimes curator, about Chinese farmer’s markets, the ongoing pandemic, food, and face masks in Europe and in China.
Conflictual Topography I
The Conflictual Topography public program that was organized by Heidi Ballet and that was planned to take place during the exhibition of Zhou Tao: Winter North Summer South came to a halt due to the coronavirus crisis. In a revised program, the artists of the original program will be revisited under new circumstances, to discuss how the world is being reshaped. In May 2020, Times Art Center Berlin is screening Urth (2016) by Ben Rivers and The Empirical Effect (2010) by Rosa Barba, accompanied by a conversation with Heidi Ballet.
Zhou Tao: Winter North Summer South
Curated by Nikita Yingqian Cai
Times Art Center Berlin presents Zhou Tao’s solo project “Winter North Summer South”, developed from the commissioning of Guangdong Times Museum in 2019. Having spent nearly two years in between the oasis and the Gobi village, the artist captured modernist obsessions and utopian desires to turn deserts into habitat.
