In the attachment space, we present an installation by Andrei Roiter (1963, Moscow). The works in this presentation, titled Dream Factory and Old Optimism, refer ambiguously to past visions of the future, a theme the Russian artist returns to frequently in his oeuvre.
Andrei Roiter (Moscow, 1960) studied at the Institute of Architecture in Moscow. In early 1990, Roiter relocated, dividing his time between Amsterdam and New York. Among the more notable exhibitions were Basel Kunsthalle, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Ludwig Forum in Aachen and Kunsthalle Recklinghausen, Germany. His recent solo exhibitions include: Gisele Linder Gallery, Basel (2013), Jack Hanley Gallery, New York (2012), Solothurn Art Museum, Switzerland (2011), Regina Gallery, Moscow (2011), Stedelijk Museum, Schiedam (2010), Stedelijk Museum, ’s Hertogenbosch (2010). Upcoming: “12+12 Project”, Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven, Netherlands
In de Attachment Space presenteert AKINCI een installatie van Andrei Roiter (1963, Moskou). In deze kleine presentatie van een tweetal werken Dream Factory en Old Optimism, verwijst Roiter naar een herhaaldelijk terugkerend thema binnen zijn oeuvre van een verleden visioen vol optimisme.
