Short turns are short stage acts. Historically, the phrase comes from the burlesque tradition of brief, unexpected or comic skits that follow one another in rapid tempo. The Short Turns exhibition brings together series’ of works by three artists, all of whom, in the spirit of burlesque, unite absurd one-acters and disconcerting performances, which they have themselves recorded on video. What connects their work is not just a disarming form of physical humour, but the use of the idiosyncratic and the nonsensical as a trigger to challenge social conditions or to counter the automatism that rules our existence.
