Yesterday Will Be Better

Taking Memory into the Future

Text by Claudia Jolles, Felicity Lunn, Philippe Pirotte, Madeleine Schuppli, Raimar Stange.

Borrowing its title from a George Brecht aphorism, Yesterday Will Be Better examines a recent upsurge in the use of mnemonics in art. Among the artists drawing on such devices are Pierre Bismuth, Simon Dybbroe Møller, Hans Peter Feldmann, Cyprien Gaillard, Douglas Gordon, Alexander Heim, Susan Hiller, Oskar Muñoz, Lorna Simpson, Fiona Tan and Adam Thompson.

FROM THE BOOK
"The proposition Yesterday Will Be Better highlights the complexity of any attempt to link past and future together, and of any effort to comprehend memory as a condition for the future. Indeed, it is only our capacity for remembering and retrieving experiences that enables us to anticipate… Realistically, we can no longer have any expectations of yesterday, because the past is immutable; in our thoughts, however, images and conceptions of the past are flexible and malleable. According to Marcel Proust, our memories are not even genuine. They may seem real, but in fact they are just figments of our imagination."

Madeleine Schuppli, excerpted from When the past and the future… in Yesterday Will Be Better.
