Oreste meeting at "democracy!" exhibition, London,
Royal College of Art
The meeting will take the form of a series of discussions between
independent groups, non-profit-making organisations and artist-run
initiatives, most of whom are based in London, but also with
representatives from throughout Europe.
The meeting will take place in lecture theatre 1 at the Royal College of
Art. It will be held over two days, and divided into three sessions, as
follows:
2pm - 6pm Thursday 11th May
9am- 12am Friday 12th May
2pm - 6pm Friday 12th May
During the initial session, each of the participating groups will
have the opportunity to give a short presentation about their
activities. This is intended as an opportunity for both Oreste and each
of the groups to become familiarised with each of the other groups
practises.
The following sessions are intended as opportunities for Oreste
and each the other groups to be able to discuss their future aims and
projects in an open arena. Oreste hope that through the open
discussions, a platform for future communication between the groups will
be initiated, with the possibility of working collaboratively on future
projects.
Within the sessions Oreste plan to include:
- Presentations about Oreste activities (This may take the form of a
couple of short interventions in the second and third two sessions. The
will focus on Oreste's past, current and future projects. Here Oreste
would also like to discuss points where other groups can become involved
in Oreste's projects).
- Discussion on the issues of networking among independent groups,
non-profit-making organisations, and artist-run initiatives as an
alternative to the star system in the art field.
- Discussion around the possibility of creating a way to exchange
information and projects, sharing resources and multiplying
opportunities.
- Discussion around the possibility of creating a permanent forum for
per
it-making
organisations, and artist-run initiatives.
- Discussion of the proposals by the participating groups.
