“When magic is indeed all around, or “Who Wants to Live in a World Without Magic?” Magic is indeed all around, its power is not relegated to an elite group of initiates, and it is not in the realm of divinity. In its most profane expression, magic happens in the transformation of labour to cash currency, of desire to exploitation, and in the mass mobilization of demonstrators, mobs and militaries. The exhibition currently on view at TENT Rotterdam curated by Katayoun Arian strives to share different possibilities of magic, and more specifically, other explorations of magical worldviews.”
