- “Exercises for the digital age” - by artist Gabriel Hensche in collaboration with curator Ashlee Conery and 25 artists from all around the internet. (Installation/Workshop)
"The Ignorant Schoolmaster" is an exhibition by artists Nguyen Hoang Giang and Gabriel Hensche featuring video, performance and installation works that address the human-machine relationship.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS:
NGUYEN HOANG GIANG (Viet Nam)
Multimedia artist, lecturer at RMIT University Vietnam. His works are multimedia, with focus on the social and cultural impacts of new technologies.

GABRIEL HENSCHE (Germany)
Website:
https://gabrielhensche.com/
Multimedia artist, managing director at Campus Gegewart/Stuttgart State University of Music and Performing Arts. In his practice, he follows a situational, conceptual and collaborative approach. He worked not only with other artists, and people outside the art world such as botanists, programmers and audiences, but also with non-human intelligent systems. Many of his performance, moving image, and installation pieces investigate contemporary belief systems through echoing, altering, and dispersing explanation models in order to explore possibilities for community and co-existence.
