PATRIARCHY FADES, THE FUTURE RISES

PATRIARCHY FADES, THE FUTURE RISES presents, in the most literal sense, Markus Keibel doing what Markus Keibel has always done: taking structures that present themselves as unchangeable – be it the Enlightenment's faith in reason, the philosophical canon, or the visually transmitted Holy Scripture – and patiently showing, from within, that each of them is composed and not simply given, and therefore can also be taken apart and rearranged. He enters a room that for centuries was considered sealed, and finds that it was in fact never closed; the door was merely heavy, dusty and so jammed that the entire neighbourhood eventually assumed one needed a battering ram or a professional locksmith.
