Anja Kirschner & David Panos: Ultimate Substance
Anja Kirschner and David Panos filmed their new video installation for the Secession during a one-year stay in Greece. With associative references to archaeology, philosophy, mathematics, and ritual, Ultimate Substance departs from the hypothesis that the introduction of coinage in the ancient Greek world effected a profound cognitive shift that was key to the emergence of western philosophic, scientific and dramatic traditions.

Mathieu Kleyebe Abonnenc: An Italian Film (Africa Addio)
Situated within Tower Works, a former steel pin factory and relic of the Leeds textile industry, is a new film installation by Mathieu Kleyebe Abonnenc. Commissioned by the Leeds-based arts organisation Pavilion, Abonnenc's work places its critical focus not upon the industry of textiles, but on the industry of copper, and deals specifically with the colonial plundering of the rich copper resources in Katanga, a southern province of Congo with an enduring history of exploitation.

Oleg Kulik: Missionary
Oleg Kulik restages his epic 1995 performance 'Missionary' on the streets of London dressed as a priest and surrounded by local art crowds and bemused passers-by. The one-off evening performance took place outside of the Regina Gallery on October 9th, 2012 for the opening of Kulik's retrospective UK exhibition - 'Deep Into Russia'. A 2-ton steel and glass tank filled with water and carp was built for the event, which saw the legendary Russian artist performing for the first time in public in almost a decade.
