Infinity is often perceived as an overwhelming, abstract and intangible extent without any borders. It plays an important role in mathematics, physics and philosophy. When it comes to daily life, infinity is somehow divided into segments of space and time which provides a viable system for human existence and progress. Going beyond that system and start thinking about infinity often causes a doubtful irritation followed by questions about sense and meaning of individual activities or even life itself. In various ways, several contemporary artists approach this wide and hardly comprehensible topic of infinity with its options and limits. The exhibition Non-Stop Infinity features some of these positions and approaches. The works featured in Non-Stop Infinity built the aspect of endlessness into their architecture, whether it be in the form of a loop, a randomized algorithm, sorting endless user input, or they visualise the perception of spatial infinity. They all deal in certain ways with the possibilities and limits of infinity. Therefore they may enable the visitors to experience spatial and temporal infinity and to start questioning about human perception and frames of reference of infinity.
