12.8.2017, workshop ยซAcademia As a Resourceยป (Galleria del Vento, Venice)
Isnโt the purpose of research to advance a given discipline? Thus, shouldnโt mathematical research advance mathematics? And shouldnโt artistic research advance the arts? How do art universities interact with freelance artists, who form the market and try to survive in it? What do art universities do to develop the art world besides producing new competitors?
With Pavel Bรผchler, Florian Dombois, Donatella Bernardi, Sabeth Buchmann, Rainer Bellenbaum
5.8.2017, workshop ยซNot-yet Art. And for Good Reasons?ยป (Galleria del Vento, Venice)
Knowledge production is a much discussed issue. But does the research done at art universities perhaps not โproduceโ any โknowledgeโ? Well, why should it? Do artists actually need knowledge? What do artists need to make โsomethingโ into art? Perhaps research departments should โproduceโ this โsomethingโ? Something that isnโt yet art, but almost?
In cooperation with the Institute for Critical Theory, Zurich, with Anna Engberg-Pedersen, Tom Holert, Dieter Mersch, Hito Steyerl, Florian Dombois
29.7.2017, workshop ยซFriendship of Artists and Scientistsยป (Galleria del Vento, Venice)
How might artists collaborate with researchers from the natural and human sciences?
All scientists seeking transdisciplinarity seem to have a problem. Whether this problem arises within or outside the sciences is intensely debated. But isnโt thinking in problems itself problematic? How can people who donโt share a problem work together? And how might people who donโt even share thinking in problems work together? A Talk and a workshop on โArt, Confessions and an EEGโ.
In cooperation with the Institute for Performing Arts and Film, Zurich, with Thomas Grunwald, Peter Hilfiker, Anton Rey, Sarine Waltenspรผl, Florian Dombois
22.7.2017, workshop ยซHow to share, how to challenge artistic practice and production?ยป (Galleria del Vento, Venice)
One very basic description of scientific research defines it as โsharableโ and โchallengeable.โ How can these two claims be translated into the art world? Which forms of sharing exist between artists, and which ones need to be developed? How do artists challenge each otherโs work, and which new modes of debate need to be developed?
In cooperation with the Institute for Computer Music and Sound Technology, Zurich), with Peter Ablinger, Ari Benjamin Meyers, Stefan Prins, Germรกn Toro Pรฉrez, Florian Dombois
15.7.2017, workshop ยซGold from Gustยป (Galleria del Vento, Venice)
How did, and how will, Venice benefit from the wind? Venice obviously owes a large part of its treasures to the wind, ever since sailing boats brought trade to the city from all over the world. What are the physical vestiges of that rich and golden history? What did the wind do? What is it doing today? Which role will it play in Veniceโs future?
With Olivier Chazot, Michelangelo Corsaro, Andrea Curtoni, Giulia Mazzorin, Florian Dombois
