WELTKUNSTZIMMER Residency

New Residency-Programme /w Armenia and Georgia
project manager

starting May + June 2021

Since the former residency-Programme with Armenia, Georgia and NRW, led by Frauenkulturbüro NRW e.V. ended in 2019, I was able to continue the programme with WELTKUNSTZIMMER Düsseldorf, which also includes exchange with artists from Bangalore, Osaka and other regions.

The WELTKUNSTZIMMER residency offers a platform for cross-genre exchange in analogue and digital spaces. The residency program consists of networking, artistic presentations, discourses and an exchange with the respective regions.

Check out their website for more information: https://weltkunstzimmer.de/en/residency

The first phase of the residency will focus on Tbilisi, Georgia, and Yerevan, Armenia, in spring 2021. The application deadline for phase 1 was Wednesday, 27 January 2021.

Participants residing in NRW will have the opportunity to reflect on their artistic processes and discuss their own and other working strategies in exchange with cooperation partners in Tbilisi and Yerevan. Through networking in digital spaces and on site, the resident artists will provide their professional colleagues as well as the general public with insights into their work. One focus is on the interdisciplinary transfer of knowledge, strategies and theoretical and practical approaches between the arts.

Tavidan is the georgian expression for „from the mind“. The word introduces the book of Genesis and it describes the starting point of an idea, a project or a process. Tavidan forms the title of this upcoming exhibition, as it wants to describe the thematical frame within the event: to draw attention to the initial point of artistic contemporary practice and the many formal and conceptual ways it goes. Where does art begin? When does it end? In form of a dialogue between a vibrant art scene from georgia and artists from germany, Tavidan examines the origins of contemporary art and questions the significance of cultural, educational and spacial influence on art.

June 1 – 29, 2012. At WELTKUNSTZIMMER Düsseldorf. Curated together with Wolfgang Schäfer.

DYSSOMNIA – Spatial Interventions (latin “dyssomina“: “sleeping disorder“) is the result of a deep investigation of the space – a former baking factory, which is in urgent need of restoration. On two floors, attached to the event halls of the foundation, the artists provide access on over 500 sqm to old storage rooms, cooling chambers and a black painted, old rocker bar. The spacial appearance with its dirty, dark and historically charged architecture is both, fascinating and a challenge for a sculptural examination. These installations whithin the exhibition space are opening up a new sight on WELTKUNSTZIMMER.

In this project recognized artists and students of the academy of Fine Arts Düsseldorf are working together and react associatively on these raw, unrenovated rooms which were not yet used in the context of contemporary art. Especially the artists selection of material and the temporary limit within the works live make this an exciting project in current arts practice.

Friday, 1 June, 8 p.m.:             OPENING RECEPTION with an artists tour through the exhibition

Friday, 29 June, 8 p.m.:           FINISSAGE with Performance von Oliver Blumek

This event took place at the former storage rooms of HPZ.
