Notes for Tomorrow features contemporary artworks brought together to reflect on the cultural transition ushered in by the COVID-19 global pandemic. With the ever-present backdrop of the crisis, Independent Curators International (ICI) turned to 30 curators from 25 countries to question and reassess values and relevance in contemporary culture, and to share an artwork they believe is vital to be seen today.
Many of the artworks in Notes for Tomorrow address spirituality as a grounding mechanism, sharing ways to make sense of the world when so much is in doubt. Some engage with specific mythology, while others reveal political structures that may or may not still be standing. The exhibition addresses art’s potential in the construction of collective memory in a global era. In this cultural moment of transition, each work is a source of inspiration from the recent past and a guiding perspective for the future.

As part of the exhibition Notes for Tomorrow, Cao Guimares, Shezad Dawood and Daniela Ortiz’s films are being screened at Pera Museum’s auditorium every Saturday between December 18 – March 6, at 15:00 – 18:30.
As part of the exhibition, the artist Ali Kazma’s video is being shown, upon the curator Mari Spirito’s invitation. Kazma’s two-channel video work North is being exhibited for the first time in Turkey. North takes the viewer to Pyramida in Svalbard Islands to explore a deserted mine, operated by the Soviets from 1930 to late 1980s.
In the Memorial for the Lost Pages, there are 9 different experimental films that examine the ways of making sense of the world in times of uncertainty, and draw a path from solution to knot, from documentation to creativity by taking the collective memory as a starting point.
