Proj V - Distances and documentation path
This project was conceived and realized by cultural association Mobeel, gathering together students from the IUAV ( Arts and Design department -University of Venice ) and Städelschule.
Proj V was held in Venice between April and May 2007 and it was structured as five events, or “appointments”. The five appointments were divided into two different classifications, two “display appointments” and three “open meetings”.
The display appointments comprised the realization and exhibiting of the art projects conceived by the artists involved, following discussions held with the group. During the time between these two display appointments, more or less every two weeks, three open meetings took place about contemporary art issues.
The meetings took place as informal round tables. Curators, artists, invited guests as well as members of the public, had a chance to join in the discussion, sharing personal experiences, doubts and opinions about the chosen issues, and more.
The display in Frankfurt is the conclusion of the Proj V and is conceived as archive
providing an account of those days to those who weren't able to participate to the actual project held in Venice. This archive is also the chance for the team to confront with the issue of documentation: a new encounter and exchange possibility through report materials.
