Pedro Gossler is a Brazilian interdisciplinary artist based in Rotterdam whose practice spans photography, video, and animation. His work investigates memory and the archive in post-internet times, examining how digital cultures reshape the ways histories are recorded, transmitted, and reconstructed.

Fanfictional Politics
Fanfictional Politics - Find out about Steve Bannon's World of Warcraft sweatshop operation and how it contributed to Donald Trump's presidency win. Think about the symbolic and literal significance of the table in political power struggles––and how it can all be connected to Vladislav Surkov, Putin's personal advisor until February 2020. Fanfictional Politics by Pedro Gossler utilizes online conspiracy theories and objective facts to show how political narratives are constructed and manipulated out of opinions, ambitions, opportunities, delusions, memories, and a few certifications. Against a backdrop of all-consuming media mistrust, the very concepts of good and evil, right and left, human and inhuman, have lost meaning. In this metaphysical wasteland we wonder at the grim absurdity of what is presented as fact. What if it's the fans who know what's really going on, better than the haters and those who don't really care?

From TikTok trends to political fandoms, the works highlight how the boundaries between self-expression, performance, and ideological reproduction have blurred.

Locatie: The Servers

A group exhibition about pleonasms—the curious, the attendant, the superfluous act of repetition that sneaks into language and meaning. In a world fueled by efficiency, pleonasms represent something that doesn’t quite fit the system with their excessiveness, but they reveal something essential; a desire to reinforce, to underline, to return to the point of departure again.
“End result.” Redundant or unnecessary? Yes. But also kind of revealing.
