Curated by Isabel Carlos, Suspending Time is the largest individual exhibition ever produced by the British artists Jane & Louise Wilson in Spain. The exhibition ranges from their first work in video, Hypnotic Suggestion 505 (1993) to the most recent - Songs for My Mother (2009) and the Animate Projects commissioned film, Unfolding the Aryan Papers (2009).
Focused on the historic memory, the work of the Wilson twins deals as much with the psychological time, as with the archaeology of places and experiences transporting us to a suspended time. A suspended time among eras, the Second World War and present day; suspended among narratives, that of cinematography and the everyday life; suspended among artistic references, from Rodchenko to Kubrick.
