TACTICS AND MYTHOLOGIES ist die erste europäische Einzelausstellung des New Yorker Duos Andrea Orejarena und Caleb Stein und präsentiert vom 7. September 2024 bis 26. Januar 2025 einen fotografischen Roadtrip durch die Bildwelten viraler Verschwörungstheorien. Die fotografischen und filmischen Arbeiten von Orejarena & Stein setzen sich mit Simulationstechniken und Narrativen der Desinformation auseinander.

Das Künstlerduo Andrea Orejarena (*1994, Kolumbien), Kognitionswissenschaftlerin und Fotografin, und Caleb Stein (*1994, UK), Dokumentarfotograf, ist bekannt für konzeptuell-dokumentarische Projekte, die sich mit individueller Wahrnehmung und kollektiver Wirklichkeitskonstruktion beschäftigen. Ihr künstlerisches Archiv lässt ein Repertoire von Bildtypen, Codes, Mustern und Motiven erkennen, die eine dynamische Typologie und stetig wachsende Bildwelt visueller Desinformation und Simulationsfantasien manifestieren.

Da ein wachsendes Misstrauen in die Unterscheidung von Realität und Fiktion unsere Gegenwart prägt, begab sich das Duo seit 2020 auf Social Media und fotografisch auf Erkundungstour. Entstanden ist ein erstes Archiv mit über 2.000 Fotografien und aktuellen Bildformen, das den Einfluss von Verschwörungsnarrativen auf die amerikanische Gesellschaft und die individuelle Wahrnehmung manifestiert.

Diese Auseinandersetzung mit Bildern, die teils mit Augenzwinkern, teils mit paranoidem Blick, unser Verhältnis zur Wirklichkeit hinterfragen, haben Orejarena und Stein in ein eigenes fotografisches Konzept weiterentwickelt, das lose einem Atlas verschwörungstheoretischer Schauplätze in den USA folgt. Ihre Serie American Glitch dokumentiert die Landschaften der USA ausgehend von viralen Bildwelten als Simulation.

Bereits seit ihrem Projekt Long Time No See (2015–2020) arbeitet das Duo an der drängenden Frage, welche Rolle die Fotografie für das Wechselverhältnis von Wahrnehmung und Imagination heute spielen kann. Long Time No See entstand zusammen mit jungen vietnamesischen Künstler*innen sowie Veteranen nahe Hanoi und zeichnet die künstlerische Auseinandersetzung mit den heutigen Erinnerungen und Folgen des Vietnam-Amerika-Krieges nach. In poetischen Porträts und Landschaftsansichten zeigt Long Time No See eine visuelle Spurensuche nach den Zwischentönen dissonanter Geschichtsschreibungen und Bildformen zwischen Dokumentation und subjektiver Wahrnehmung. Das Projekt reflektiert kritisch die amerikanischen Darstellungskonventionen des Krieges und erprobt kollaborative fotografische Formen. Die Soundinstallation War Words bringt konkurrierende historische (Des)Informationskampagnen in einen Dialog und öffnet einen Wahrnehmungsraum, zwischen lokalen Mythologien, militärischen Taktiken und emotionaler Medienwirksamkeit.

Die Arbeiten von Orejarena & Stein wurden international ausgestellt, unter anderem in der Vin Gallery in HCMC, im Projektraum von Jiazazhi Press in Shanghai, im Vincom Center for Contemporary Art in Hanoi, im FOAM in Amsterdam, im Ogden Museum of Southern Art in New Orleans, in der Palo Gallery in New York, im The Curator's Room in Amsterdam, beim Belfast Photo Festival, beim Arles Photo Festival und bei Encontros da Imagem. Ihr erstes Buch, Long Time No See, wurde 2022 bei Jiazazhi Press veröffentlicht. Ihr zweites Buch, American Glitch, ist bei Gnomic Book erschienen. TACTICS & MYTHOLOGIES ist ihre erste institutionelle Ausstellung weltweit.

TACTICS AND MYTHOLOGIES ist die erste Ausstellung der neuen Ausstellungs- und Veranstaltungsreihe »Viral Hallucinations«, die von 2024 bis 2026 die Rolle fotografischer und KI-generierter Bilder für den wachsenden gesellschaftlichen Einfluss von Verschwörungstheorien adressiert. Die Reihe wird von der Deutschen Börse Photography Foundation gefördert.

This first European solo exhibition by the New York based duo Andrea Orejarena (*1994, Colombia) and Caleb Stein (*1994, United Kingdom) presents photographs and films that deal with practices of simulation and narratives of disinformation. As an artist duo, Orejarena, a cognitive scientist and photographer, and Stein, a documentary photographer, are known for their conceptually documentary projects on individual perception and the collective construction of reality.

In reaction to the growing distrust in the distinction between reality and fiction that characterizes the present, the duo began an exploratory journey through social media and photography in 2020. They have created an initial archive of over 1.500 photographs and current visual forms that manifests the influence of conspiracy narratives on American society and individual perception.

This archive of photographic forms of “alternative facts” engages in dialogue with landscape photographs by Orejarena and Stein in the installation “American Glitch”, which documents and decodes the supposed locations of conspiratorial events. By embracing traditions such as road trips and street photography, American Glitch interweaves continuities from American photographic history with the new phenomena of contemporary online culture.

Since their project “Long Time No See” (2015–2020), the duo has been working on the pressing question of what role photography can play today in the interplay of perception and imagination. Long Time No See, created in collaboration with young Vietnamese artists and veterans in Hanoi, traces the artistic engagement with current memories and consequences of the Vietnam-American-War. In poetic portraits and landscape views, Long Time No See presents a visual exploration of the nuances between dissonant historical writings and visual forms, spanning documentation and subjective perception.

Orejarena & Stein’s work has been exhibited internationally, including at Vin Gallery in HCMC, Jiazazhi Press’s project space in Shanghai, Vincom Center for Contemporary Art in Hanoi, FOAM in Amsterdam, Ogden Museum of Southern Art in New Orleans, Palo Gallery in New York, The Curator’s Room in Amsterdam, Belfast Photo Festival, Arles Photo Festival, Encontros da Imagem, among others. Their first book, Long Time No See, was published by Jiazazhi Press in 2022. Their second book, American Glitch is published by Gnomic Book. Tactics & Mythologies is their first institutionally show worldwide.

The exhibition is accompanied by image and media literacy workshops for different age groups.

On September 13, the transdisciplinary symposium "Viral Hallucinations: Visual Worlds of Disinformation" will take place in the auditorium of the Deichtorhallen. Participation is free of charge, registration is required.

The new exhibition series “Viral Hallucinations” addresses the range of documentary strategies in a globally connected “post-truth era.”

Good starter WDT
Color: Black, Color: Black
I very much think this is a good starter distribution tool! The needles are a bit flimsy so sometimes when you are distributing the coffee grounds, it tends to flick the coffee grounds around out of my Porter filters. That’s the only reason I deducted one star, but other than that I enjoy the fact that it has that sponge on the inside, so it cleans off the tool after each use, which is a nice feature. It’s pretty lightweight and good in size and easy to use. For the price and starting off my espresso at home journey I think this is good to start with. The photo I posted is of the inner bristles pushed up so you see what’s on the inside and what is actually cleaning off the tool every time you insert it back into the case and this is after I’ve used it for over a month ☺️

Amazing WDT Tool!
Color: Black
This WDT tool instantly improved the evenness of my puck prep, and the difference in my shots was obvious. The ultra‑fine needles fluff the grounds perfectly without creating channels. It has a nice weight to it and feels like a real upgrade compared to cheaper plastic options.

Has upped our coffee game :)
Color: Sliver, Color: Sliver
EDIT: Well, 2 months later, this is still performing okay, however some of the needles have gotten slightly bent, causing it to seem loose and wobbly as they rotate within their opening. . Not a great aspect of this design. If you loosen the head straighten any bent needles, it does help a little bit. So far so good. It’s made a little difference in our coffee. We buy espresso beans and so we really pay attention to the way the espresso acts from cup to cup. We notice that after using this tool our coffee is a little sweeter, probably because the way the grounds are so evenly distributed and the little channels that the wires create. Easy to use, store, and keep clean. And it’s cute on the counter!

Big Improvement in Espresso Consistency
Color: Black
This WDT tool made a noticeable difference in the quality of my espresso shots. The needles are thin enough to break up clumps and create a very even coffee bed, and the distribution feels smooth and controlled. Build quality is solid, the handle feels comfortable, and it’s easy to clean. I’ve gotten more consistent extractions and better flavor since using it. For anyone looking to upgrade their espresso workflow, this is a simple but very effective tool. Definitely worth it.

Impressed
Color: Black
I rarely give 5 star reviews. This product deserves it. A lot of thought has gone into the design. First, the material of it is quite good, metal. It has a contoured and knurled top for ease of use and good grip without being "grippy". The recepticle has little brushes inside which I think is unique to this product. Will those brushes created a problem in the future? I don't know. But there must be a way to clean out the coffee dust at some point. An air blower? Until now I had been using a home-made WDT with acupuncuture needles drilled into a cork. When I used the Nessus WTD I could immediately feel a difference as I stirred the grounds. While I have only made two double-shots so far, there was noticeably less channeling that I had before (I use a bottomless portafilter exclusively). Actually I had no channeling, but initially two streams that mergedi into one in about 3 seconds, so pretty good compared to what I had before. Nothing much more to say except the price was quite good compared to other WDT's. Even though I haven't used this product more than a few times, I can, at least at first blush, recommend it.
