Concerning Peace: Utopia or Pantopia? International Peace Workshop 2008
Open Call - for interdiciplinary workshop
held from 2 October to 4 Octoberwill be the starting point of the project and is a collaboration with the International Research Group Transcendental Philosophy/German Idealism of the institute for philosophy, Technische Universität Berlin, organized by Kai Gregor and Sergueï Spetschinsky and arttransponder Berlin. The workshop will combine philosophical aswell as artistic statements. It is questioning peace which is frequently represented as an everlasting omnipresence - as a /pantopia /...
Wann: Workshop 2. - 4. oktober 2008
The workshop is starting point of the international network project
peace - utopia or realspace?
network project__exhibition_workshops_project
presentations_talks__lounge_data base_library_city satellite art projects
a project initiated and organized by the artist Tatjana Fell, held throughout october 2008 in arttransponder Berlin.
The project questions and researches the following issues:
Is peace is just a term with no location, an "u-topia", something which exists only as an idealistic fantasy or philosophical approach, is peace just absence of conflict or a form of power itself which creates its own restrictions and forms of radicalism? What can be the meaning of peace, where is peace located, how is it possible to transfer peace into daily
life of society and which forms of transfer and implementation can be possible and can come to reality through art?
Main idea is to research what artists and art projects are existing, who really try to bring the word peace into shape and action through art and how the do it.
The project will have a practical, theoretical and an open participatory part and lots of room for dialog, discussions and networking
application papers and more information about the workshop and the main project under http://www.peace-realspace.net

Help Create the Shapetionary!

What is the Shapetionary? It’s a visual index of objects.

It started from looking at the dictionary and wondering why some words are illustrated and others aren’t, then thinking it would be interesting to illustrate the whole dictionary, or all the object nouns...then organize them by shape.

So I extracted all, or most (aprox 9500), of the object nouns, now I am setting out to get them illustrated by as many different people as possible. I am interested in our subjective/collective understandings of objects. So far over 950 people are participating, I estimate that between 1200-1500 drawers are needed.

If you are interested in illustrating some words, email velvetbicycle<a>hotmail.com and you will receive a list of 6-8 words, along with complete instructions.

All participants will be acknowledged in a complete index. There is no financial compensation for participating in the Shapetionary.

Questions and comments can be directed to:

Künstlerstipendium Just, Düsseldorf e.V.
Um Nachwuchskünstler verschiedener Nationalitäten nachhaltig zu fördern, vergibt der Verein Künstlerstipendium Just, Düsseldorf e. V. dreimal jährlich ein viermonatiges Residenzstipendium in Düsseldorf.
Das Stipendium Just beinhaltet einen vierteljährlichen Aufenthalt in einem Wohnatelier in Düsseldorf, wobei Lebensunterhaltungs- und Produktionskosten erstattet werden.
Im Anschluss an die Stipendiumszeit schließt sich für weitere vier Monate eine Einzelausstellung in den Projekträumen an (d.h. zeitgleich arbeitet immer ein Stipendiat im Wohnatelier, während der Vorangegangene die Projekträume bespielt). Hierbei ermöglicht das Projekt Just den Nachwuchskünstlern ihre zumeist erste Einzelausstellung in Deutschland. Zur Ausstellung wird jeweils ein monographischer Katalog veröffentlicht.
Über das Stipendium und die Ausstellung hinaus vermittelt das Projekt Just außerdem nationale und internationale Kontakte in die Kunstszene und auf Messen, um die zukünftige Entwicklung der Künstler und ihrer Werke nachhaltig zu fördern.
Das Stipendium Just richtet sich an individuelle Künstlerpersönlichkeiten, die gattungsübergreifend arbeiten. Dies kann sich auf Malerei, Skulpturen, Instalationen, Video, Photographie und Installationen beziehen. Mit dem Stipendium Just sollen Künstler gefördert werden, deren Arbeit sowohl einen Beitrag zur Vertiefung des künstlerischen Diskurses leistet, als auch eine Auseinandersetzung mit aktuellen gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen erkennen lässt. Grundsätzlich werden nur Künstler gefördert, die an einer renommierten Kunstakademie studiert haben, sich durch internationale Mobilität kennzeichnen und bereits vorangegangene Stipendien erhalten haben. Der Künstler/die Künstlerin sollte nicht vor 1965 geboren sein. Ziel ist es, die Substanz der künstlerischen Produktion von Nachwuchskünstlern zu sichern und eine nationale und internationale Vermittlung zu ermöglichen. Der Verein Künstlerstipendium Just, Düsseldorf e. V. und das Projekt Just sehen ihre Aufgabe im frühzeitigen Erkennen von Talenten.
