Title: Elena Narbutaite
Description: Elena Narbutaite enjoys the nature of discovery. By offering the unexpected, she hopes to create social situations in which the audience can collectively experience surprise or confusion. 'Alex' is a lamp, a light programme, and an exhibition by Narbutaité that began during a 2016 New Year's Eve party in her Vilnius apartment. After bringing in the new year, the lamp travelled to Kunstverein München, where it was installed above a window at the foyer entrance, pointed directly into the eyes of visitors. This book marks the year-long event using text excerpted from the film 'Exotica' by Atom Egoyan, as well as text interventions by Bernardo José de Souza and Chris Fitzpatrick.
