The University Paradox
A Projection by Bitter & Weber concurrently on view at Galerie Grita Insam, Vienna.

A work of mediated images of student protests, university occupations, and political aesthetics from 1968 to today. Drawn from the archives of Simon Fraser University and documentation of the recent occupation of the University of Vienna, this exhibition of mediated photographs springs from the super stylish and super affective political and aesthetic revolutionary campus movements.
