Project 2010
Practice
Trip/Journey
In
May/June 2010 students will make a trip to ‘an enchanted island’ in the South
of Siberia. We will take the Trans-Siberian Railway from Moscow to Irkutsk.
This journey is, in part, about the experience of the trip itself, moving from
one place to another, and reaching our destination: the island Olkhon in the Baikal Lake, Siberia
(nota bene: Siberia is a gigantic region that comprises almost the whole area
of Northern Asia). On Olkhon, the largest island within a lake, there is a
steep mountain, Mount Zhima, and many holy places amongst which the famous
Shaman Rock.

Final Presentations
Alongside
the theoretical itinerary of the workshop, students develop work that connects
with issues put forward in the collective and individual meetings, work that is
based on an individual urgency. The work will be presented as a series of
‘Exhibitions of an Hour’ in the DAI project room in the month of June and
during the DAI-week. The ‘Exhibitions of an Hour’ are curated and supervised by
Mark Kremer. John Heymans will be our critical & sympathetical observer.
