Programme
The Lies of the Weatherman, Madison Bycroft
Venue: Panorama, Friche la Belle de Mai
Madison Bycroft’s solo exhibition is built around her film Exauguration. The sauce of all order. It invites visitors into an earthy environment that offers a sense of continuity with the end of the film and the image of the molehill: it is precisely inside a molehill that the film is screened.
At once a comedy, musical, and gore film, The sauce of all order follows the literal exauguration of Felix Culpa, who joins the circle of augurs—priests in Ancient Rome who interpreted natural phenomena, particularly those involving birds, as omens for emperors. Here, the emperor/empress Oren—an anagram of Nero, the 1st-century Roman ruler—echoes the character of Trimalchio, a parody of Nero in the Satyricon attributed to Petronius, a Roman writer and arbiter elegantiae [arbiter of elegance] at Nero’s court. The Satyricon is a tale of excess, whose central scene, “Trimalchio’s Feast,” is both a mock funeral banquet and a narrative of social ascent, in which truth and fiction become indistinguishable—a direct reference point for Bycroft’s film.
An exhibition conceived and produced by Triangle-Astérides, co-produced by the cooperative La Friche la Belle de Mai. With the support of Villa Medici and the Fondation des Artistes.
Partners: Actoral, steirischer herbst ’25.
