Utopian Pulse – Flares in the Darkroom

Here are some photographs from our show  Occupied Horizons at the Vienna Secession that ran from 23 -30 September. It was part of the project Utopian Pulse –Flares in the Darkroom curated by  Ines Doujak and Oliver Ressler. In typical Isola Art Center style it functioned like a work in progress and grew as the week went on.  A lot more happened then what is shown here, see Isola Art Center's website and Facebook.

  A shot from Camila Topuntoli's  Isola Utopia Rising shot at the Secession that week.
