Städelschule, Frankfurt meets Missing Identity, Prishtina
A project of the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende Künste - Städelschule, Frankfurt/Main, in co-operation with Missing Identity, Kosovo, and relations
Nikola Dietrich (Portikus, Frankfurt/Main) and Dirk Fleischmann (Städelschule, Frankfurt/Main) have worked together with the Missing Identity team to formulate a program for supporting exchange between young artists of both locations. The program will be phased in over a year. Picking up on the themes addressed in Missing Identity, the program will ask to what extent artistic production can reflect the mechanisms employed to form identity, a recurring element of the cooperation. Students from the Missing Identity alternative art academy, the Contemporary Art Institute EXIT in Prishtina, and the Frankfurt Städelschule are to come together to develop individual art projects, which will be then realized in Prishtina and Frankfurt/Main. Joint theory workshops will accompany these activities. The project will be presented in Prishtina and in Frankfurt/Main in fall 2005.
