Toxic Play In Two Acts
Curated by Electra
14 December 2012 - 24 February 2013

For their first solo exhibition in the UK, Berlin-based artist duo Pauline Boudry/Renate Lorenz present Toxic, 2012 and Salomania, 2009, alongside a programme of performance, screenings and talks. Through their installations of film and archival material they upset normative historical narratives with a host of collaborators including Ginger Brooks Takahashi, Werner Hirsch, Yvonne Rainer and Wu Tsang.

Toxic Play In Two Acts is supported by Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia and Swiss Cultural Fund in Britain with support in kind from Institut français du Royaume-Uni. The associated events programme is supported by Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen e.V. and Goethe-Institut London.

Toxic was co-produced by Les Laboratoires d'Aubervilliers, Paris Triennale 2012 and Electra, in the frame of the research residency at Les Laboratoires d'Aubervilliers. Electra is funded by Arts Council England.
