The images of the Horus Archive can show the flip side of things. The eternal laws are communicated to us conceptually. When the two are combined, they can raise significant questions.
Do we still know who the One is? Are we able to form an image of it, any image, and are we free? Is it like what we see behind our heads? Or can we think anything about it in today’s world?
Are we able to celebrate it in the noble sense of the word? Is it possible that today the celebration is to free ourselves from our everyday consciousness and try to shake off our fears?
Are we capable of driving our erotic and power desires into the yoke of morality? To look with empathy at the life of another human being, to see the unfortunate not as an enemy?
Are we capable of respecting age, or does a life lived with difficulty oppress us and make us unworthy of respect?
Is it possible to take down the ringing bell, to make it a cannon of frenzied battle? And “let there be a cannon” (Aaron Gábor) is quite another thing, and that too comes from a bell. Are we able to distinguish between the two, or perhaps to choose between them in a land of confused battles?
Is the eternal law still valid, from which no order can ever be lost (Jesus)?
Well, are we capable of light? All is lost, or is there hope?
That is what this exhibition is intended to be about.
