ART WORK READING GROUP



23-25 august 2023
10 am - 2 pm, daily

”Ways of Organisation” project is continuing with a three day reading group with students from the Mural Arts Department, Visual Art and Design Faculty, “George Enescu” National Art University, Iasi. Trying to identify together in which way artists are not any different than any other professional groups in the participation to the dynamics of economical and social relations, we embarked on a different kind of attempt within the reading group practices and decided to research the ways artists decide to organize economically. We will be reading several articles from Art Work: A National Conversation About Art, Labor, & Economics, a magazine compiled by Temporary Services in 2009. Temporary Services made this newspaper in 2009 as a direct response to the financial collapse of 2008 and the devastating impact it had on the arts, artists, art museums, exhibitions spaces, curators and others working within the field of fine, community, or contemporary art. The magazine combines more theoretical texts and texts coming from a particular experience. You can download the newspaper here: https://halfletterpress.com/art-work-a-national-conversation-about-art-labor-economics-pdf/

Reading Group in the frame of Exhibition as Reading project



July - August 2021

On adult education: Paulo Freire

Paulo Freire had a substantial influence on community and social engaged art, for instance in defining the artist as an educator. For him, literacy was not a technical impediment or a mode of self-improvement, but a limit to participation. Literacy is not only reading the alphabet but also a way of thinking about our mode of participation, the inclusion practices, and the gatekeeping practices of certain social groups. We will examine reading together as a method of inclusion.

EXHIBITION AS READING

Project /


May - November 2021

Participants: Anca Benera & Arnold Estefan, Baran Caginli, Dana Andrei & Sorin Popescu, Beatrice Anghelache, Cătălin Gheorghe, Maxim Polyakov, Mădălina Muscă, Bogdan Popa, Ovidiu Pop, Valentin Cernat, Smaranda Ursuleanu, Andrei Timofte, Ruxandra Simion, Delia Bulgaru

Through an in depth theoretical and artistic examination of the practice of reading together we will examine how art and culture are becoming an important factor in education and especially peer to peer and intergenerational informal education. As a result, the group exhibitions, the reading groups, the publications will raise awareness and build the capacity of artists and cultural operators to assume this role of educators.

Propaganda walks

A workshop with and for Andreas Fogarasi and Christian Mayer /


Together with: Luminița Apostu, Dan Acostioaei, Florin Bobu, Delia Bulgaru, Bogdan Chelariu, Cezar Lăzărescu, Sorana Lupu, Cristina Moraru, Cristian Nae, Andrei Pripasu, Alex Tănăuceanu and Ionuț Toma.

tranzit. ro/ Iași has organised for two days a marathon event, with a semi-public character, with no photographic documentation. Projection and memory were the main instruments used in order to design and later to reconstitute the 12 tours made in pairs, 1:1. The twelve "guides" (artists, curators, theorists, one architect and one translator from Iași) offered one tour each to one or the other of the two invited artists, the latter being accompanied, as a result on six personal propaganda walks.

Originally designed as a propaganda service that tranzit. ro/ Iaşi could offer its guests, this institutional practice takes one step further and becomes externalised, thus creating infinite possibilities of imagining an urban space, both for the hosts and the guests.

The propaganda walks were designed for the first time as an institutional practice by Livia Pancu, on the occasion of the ENPAP - European Network for Public Art Producers meeting organised by the Vector Association in Iaşi in 2011.

Cristina DAVID, artist in residence at tranzit. ro/ Iași

March – May 2014 /

A new project will start with the residency of Bucharest-based international Romanian artist Cristina David. She will inaugurate in March the newest chapter of tranzit. ro/ Iaşi regarding the residency program venture in our city. This invitation was sent after the encounter with her application for the AiR programme of tranzit and the ERSTE Foundation at MuseumsQuartier - 2014, a project that tranzit. ro/ Iaşi is very keen to produce in Iaşi. Cristina will collaborate for this project with the Danish writer Mikkel Rosengaard. Being interested a priori in the "democracy" of the "openness of calls" in the arts domain, tranzit. ro/ Iaşi is thus trying to question this issue both as its own practice, as well as the others' practice in the art world.

OPEN CALL FOR VIDEO AND SOUND WORKS

*THEME OF THIS EDITION: MATTERS OF METHOD* /

SALON VIDEO and TRANZIT.RO/ IAȘI are launching an open call for video and sound works. These will be displayed in the frame of the fourth edition of salonvideo, which will take place in Iași, Romania in December 2013.

Guest curator: Luminița Apostu

Deadline for submitting works: *November 20th 2013*

*THEME OF THIS EDITION: MATTERS OF METHOD*

When speaking about any type of action, be it physical or mental, an immediate transcription makes us describe it as a method. There are goals to be attained (however frivolous or blurry they might be) and an initial situation to start from. The method always develops in between these two. But what happens when the steps to take are not so clear, when the goal is lacking clarity or it even seems to be irrelevant? What motivates the use of a method and what feeds it?
