Whitechapel Gallery Sat 17 Mar, 11.15am – 6pm
The screening series Its origins are indeterminate examines the concept of ‘language-as-a-virus.’ As carriers of meaning, words and images are vulnerable to intervention and corruption. The works presented test and bend the limits of language, send out new versions of media to spread, and breakdown systems of controlling grammar.
