In connection to Lise Nellemann/Sparwasser HQ's
visit to Signal and Malmö, we are happy to
present Old Habits Die Hard, a video program /
overview of artist run spaces.
50 Artist led spaces around the world were asked
to choose the best art video they could think of,
and get hold of. There was no topic or other
issue to relate to when selecting the video,
except that it was selected by the space or
collective. The videos are no longer than 30 min.
Each space was asked to send a short description
of the video for documentation together with a
short description of the collective and the
activities of the space. The whole exhibition was
organised in just over two month through email,
www and courier services.
Apart from being an international video
screening, which focuses on artists curating, Old
Habits Die Hard researches and maps artist
collectives and networks and the communication
between them, raising issues about
self-organisation and self-representation. Old
Habits Die Hard talks about, how other and
alternative economies and values evolve and
establish themselves.
