from the South-Side of Chicago<\/p>\n December 12, 2015 \u2013 January 25, 2016 <\/p>\n No one doubts that an order of time exists \u2014 or rather, that orders of time exist which vary with time and place. Historian Fran\u00e7ois Hartog explored crucial moments of change in society’s \u00ab\u00a0regimes of historicity\u00a0\u00bb or its ways of relating to the past, present, and future. According to Hartog[1]<\/sup><\/a>, contemporary Western societies have entered from 1989 a new \u201cregime of historicity\u201d (a synonym for temporal order) into\u00a0a “presentist\u00a0regime of historicity” defines it as a temporal order of static historicity, characterised by the end of expected horizons and as an invasion of the present into the realms of the past and future.\u00a0How can we set time back in motion, to liberate us from the presentism to which we seem compelled in Europe particularly ?

\n\u00ab Born from a modernity at the end of its rope, a \u00ab\u00a0presentist\u00a0\u00bb regime of historicity has emerged since the late 1980s. An exhibition and a one-day symposium will be imagining alternative regime of historicity for the future.<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nOn opposite side from presentism, new wave of contemporary accelerationism as social emancipation recently emerged[2]<\/sup><\/a>, as a way to put time back in motion. The only way out of capitalism would be to take it further, to follow its lines of flight or deterritorialization to the absolute end, to speed-up beyond the limits of production and so to rupture the limit of capital itself. But, these new visions of acceleration are also problematic, being centralised and planificated scripts for the future. And, as Benjamin Noys added it, speed is, still, a problem. Our lives are too fast, we are subject to the accelerating demand that we innovate more, work more, enjoy more, produce more, and consume more[3]<\/sup><\/a>. Hartmut Rosa declares that today we face a \u2018totalitarian\u2019 form of social acceleration[4]<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nExploring chronopolitics, the exhibition that will take place in the Archive House \/ M\u00e9thode Room will propose a lexicon of disruptive\u00a0temporalities<\/strong>, a semantic of times as a toolbox for the regime of historicity to come, specially thought for the context of Chicago[5]<\/sup> and will display as well artists\u2019 films and documents. Summoning concepts from recent historiographical renewal, the exhibition focuses on alternative temporalities put forward by artists, overlapping temporalities \u2013 a spectrality of memory and speculation \u2013 to rethink the staging of times. These \u00ab polychronic devices \u00bb are together imagining a multi-temporal and non-presentist contemporaneity and finally, tend toward a new politics of time, and, even more, a possibility to govern the times differently : to imagine a \u00ab differential government of times \u00bb, as it has been advocated by the philosopher Daniel Innerarity in his book, The future and Its Enemies<\/em> (Stanford University Press, 2012). \u00bb (A.I.&K.Q.)
