Godot Labor

1 March 2024 – 23 June 2024

Opening

29 February 2024 at 19:00, with a live performance by the it’s fine artists’ collective.

Pay-what-you-wish admission applies on the opening day.

Formed in 2022, the it’s fine artists’ collective describes itself as an anti-superhero movement. Its members reject the idea that the world is changing for the better. They choose to face it head-on rather than give in to anxiety. Their social criticism is shaped by deep-seated irony and conveys a frank bitterness, the depression and hopelessness that pervade our world, and a longing for the blessed ability to turn a blind eye.

In 2023, the members of the it’s fine artists’ collective first presented their artistic statement in the battered underground spaces of Bunker Gallery. They set out the movement’s views in a ten-point manifesto.

With renewed anguish and an indifferent admission of their own hopelessness, the collective sets out to wear down Godot Labor’s four floors. They carry on along the same path, refusing the audience’s request for a more optimistic tone. The world has grown no cheerier, and the absurdity has reached its peak.

it’s fine 2 is an ode to helplessness, an anthem to ineffectuality and the ultimate exercise in floundering. The collective is looking for an audience for it. The exhibition aims to amplify critical voices, make waves in the Hungarian art scene and bring together people worn out by the expectation of constant motivation, in a radical disillusionment intoxicated by exhaustion.

it’s fine, members of the artists’ group: Balogh Gallusz, Barcza Réka, Gáspár Annamária, Gulyás Andrea Katalin, KristofLab, w. Horváth Tibor

Curator: Luca Cserhalmi
