As part of the exhibition twenty-four-seven, Raqs Media Collective present a one-off screening of their 2010 film The Capital of Accumulation. The 50-minute video grew out of a familiarity with the work of philosopher and economist Rosa Luxemburg, and specifically her 1913 polemic The Capital of Accumulation. Here, Raqs Media Collective offer a trawl through a haunting, dream-like landscape straddling Warsaw, Berlin and Bombay/Mumbai to produce a riff on cities, capitalism and the twentieth century's turbulent history.
