Opening tonight at Deutsche Guggenheim in Berlin, the exhibition Once Upon a Time: Fantastic Narratives in Contemporary Video focuses on how myths, fables, and fairytales are represented in video art today, to mirror current social phenomena and events in recent history. The show, organized by Joan Young, features a selection of video installations and single-channel works by Francis Alÿs, Cao Fei, Pierre Huyghe, Aleksandra Mir, Mika Rottenberg, and Janaina Tschäpe. Don’t miss Mika Rottenberg’s fantastic video work Dough!
