#6 All Play and No Work? Boris Magrini on Lawrence Lek
We visited the exhibition “Farsight Freeport” which is the first solo exhibition in Switzerland by Lawrence Lek. At the Haus der Elektronischen Künste in Basel, or HEK in short, we met the co-curator of the show, Boris Magrini.
Lek takes us on a journey through time. Visitors enter a setting which transports them to the year 2065. They discover a time in which artificial intelligence dominates and controls all areas of social, industrial and economic life.
Lawrence Lek is a multimedia artist, filmmaker, and musician based in London. Born in Frankfurt am Main of Malaysian and Chinese descent, he studied architecture at Trinity College, Cambridge; the Architectural Association in London, and Cooper Union in New York. In his films, we see an interest in futurist architecture, which creates a setting for imagined future societies.
