The Leo Kuelbs Collection is proud to announce the return of “The Decelerator.” Its 5th incarnation brings the group video show to Sudlab, in Portici Italy, overlooking Mt. Vesuvius and Pompeii, near Naples. Originally conceived as a reaction against the digital world’s encroachment on terrestrial time, the meaning of “The Decelerator” has evolved since its 2011 3-city inception. “The most powerful thought I had during the creation of the concepts behind ‘The Decelerator’ was of time as we know it being pulled ever more quickly into a black hole,” says lead Curator Leo Kuelbs.
