Double Minutes is a nomadic project that reimagines the format of an artist talk. In each edition, two artists are invited to share the peculiarities and inspirations that shape their practices. At the same time, they are encouraged to experiment with the scenographic, performative, and collaborative possibilities of such kind of presentation. The result is a series of live events that foster artistic discourse and the dynamic interaction between diverse practices.

For the 14th edition of Double Minutes artists Marlie Mul and Anina Müller are invited.

Zhu Wenbo, Sun Yizhou and Zhao Cong are known for their innovative use of everyday objects—such as household appliances, mechanical devices, toys, and office stationery—which are amplified through various microphones and often accompanied by feedback loops. Their performances are filled with contradictions, balancing between irregularity and homogeneity, inviting the audience to explore the space and create their own interpretation.
