In Memoriam, Takahiko Iimura (1937-2022). Offering no less than its title suggests, this forerunner of conceptual video art filters the object of its attention through wavy black and white signals accompanied by sounds of drumline static. Its original installation format at the inaugural Forum Expanded program in Berlin, which was re-staged in 2023, allowed visitors to view together and share the moment on multiple synced TVs brought in by Arsenal staff.
