Curated by Lýdia Pribišová, the exhibition What is happening with sleep today? places sleep and its possible, but at the same time impossible commercial use in today’s society at the center of its reflection, taking inspiration from the text of the art historian and essayist  Jonathan Crary 24/7 – Late Capitalism and the ends of Sleep, in open controversy with the dehumanizing conditions dictated by neoliberalism and non-stop productivity which leads to a life without pauses and a sort of a “global slumber.” A condition that is redesigning the notion of temporality, outlining new and extremely dangerous strategies for the surveillance of individual subjectivities which undermine the possibility of individual political expression and dissent. Here, Ben Landau investigates the incidence of sleep in contemporary society. Sleeping and dreaming open a connection with the unconscious now neglected by our hyperreal world, placing itself as a last bastion of freedom from the incessant pace of work.
