The exhibition of the three Finnish artist is a result of the continued collaboration with Mika Hannula, one of the curators of the 53rd October Salon, entitled Good Life, physical narratives and spatial imaginations (Belgrade, 2012). The idea of the exhibition is to create and generate a situation for exhibiting contemporary video artists that becomes anchored to the site where it is shown.
The themes addressed in these works deal with the big issues: death, crises but also with playful hope and chance. Therefore the title which suggests the following: we are looking at and with topics and matters that go deep, far below the surface, far below even the deepest of the deep bass line. That’s why the somehow cryptic, double sided title – Four to the Floor // (Far) Below the Bassline – which stresses the wish and the need to create a platform for video works that focus on their singularities (only one work is shown at a time) and on their themes and topics that are connected deep into the images of the everyday life.
