DAY 5

11AM:



Art is a conversation. Conversation as a method.

We have selected three texts centered around the ideas of participation and collaboration in art
practice:
– Picking Up the Thread — Of Dandies, Cocktail Parties and Mnemotechniques. Conversation
and the Arts by Sabine Sanio (2010);
– Spaces of Unexpected Learning — A Conversation between Annette Krauss, Emily Pethick and Marina Vishmidt in Krauss, Annette (2008), Hidden Curriculum – A project by Annette Krauss, co-published by Casco Office for Art, Design and Theory and Episode;
– Doing Democracy by Andrea Phillips in Condorelli, Céline (2009), Support Structures, Sternberg Press.

By making the texts converse with each other, we aim at simultaneously discuss and make tangible the productive potential of conversation. For that to happen, we have asked everyone to:
I. read the texts beforehand;
II . bring photographs, pictures, ideas, questions, drawings, ..., everything that comes to mind as
being connected in any way to the texts and to the sentences/ paragraphs that were selected.

The result will be twofold: a conversation about our selections and a new text.
