The Heart Is a Pump, Part II: Extreme Humility (I Can Shrink Smaller Than Your Boot Heel)
Between Bridges Residency Space"It is about pleasure, jouissance, denigration, the wounds that one inflicts on oneself?" —Catherine Breillat, I Only Believe in Myself Between Bridges is pleased to present an exhibition as part of the Residency Program, coinciding with Gallery Weekend Berlin. Curated by current fellow Kristian Vistrup Madsen, the exhibition project The Heart is a Pump takes its title from a poem by Bob Flanagan. It unfolds across three parts, accompanied by film screenings and conversations, and explores motifs of pain, repetition, and submission in Christian iconography and beyond. Kristian Vistrup Madsen is a writer and curator based in Berlin. In 2025, he curated Mood Curriculum, a series of events and podcasts at Simian in Copenhagen that explored the notion of Stimmung as central to artistic and curatorial practice.
