SLOE – Tu dir Gutes

2014 SLOE – Tu dir Gutes / Soziale Skulptur und Intervention im öffentlichen Raum / Tatort Paderborn / Paderborn (D)

[Sloe, engl. – ‘Schlehdorn’: Rosengewächs. Die Schlehe bringt den Körper in Schwung, verleiht frische Kräfte und schützt vor Erkältungen. Ihr wird eine starke Schutzwirkung gegen Hexen zugeschrieben. Das dornenreiche Gehölz zählte früher zu den Pflanzen, mit deren Hilfe sich Ernte und Wetter vorhersagen ließen.] [Slow, engl. – ‘langsam’ und food ‘Essen’: genussvolles, bewusstes und regionales Essen, bezeichnet eine Gegenbewegung zum uniformen und globalisierten Fastfood.

SLOE – Tu dir Gutes wurde für die im öffentlichen Raum stattfindende Ausstellung ‘Tatort Paderborn 2014’ konzipiert. Für die Dauer von 100 Tagen von Mai bis September inszenierten elf verschiedene Künstler/gruppen die Paderborner Innenstadt.

SLOE ist die Inszenierung eines mobilen Ortes mit einem klösterlich inspirierten Angebot – Kaffee, Kräutergetränke, frischgepresste grüne Säfte und Energiekekse. Über die Dauer der Ausstellung taucht der Wagen an verschiedenen Orten im Stadtraum auf: in der Fußgängerzone, auf dem Marktplatz oder bei Festivitäten.

DREIJAHRE DINING-ROOM PROJECT. A REFLECTION OF THE AESTHETIC OPPOSITE

FORMULATION, MARGINALITY AND POSSIBILITY. ON ANNELI KÄSMAYR’S ARTISTIC PRACTICE.

By Elke Bippus
Art and life praxis – a prehistory 
“Into Production!” was the title of an article written in 1923 by Constructivist theorist Osip Brik; drawing on ideas by Alexander Rodchenko he set out to describe changes taking place in creative practice. [1]
As did a number of other Constructivist artists – Vladimir J. Tatlin, Varvara F. Stepanova or Lyuboy S.Popoya, for instance – with the end of the Russian Revolution Rodchenko ventured the leap into the Soviet mass production industry; the focus at the time being to transform what had formerly predominantly been an agricultural society into a modern industrialized nation. The Russian avant-garde movement’s contributions to social production came in the form of designs of objects for everyday use: kitchenware (Talin), clothing (Stepanova), or those destined to be the hubs of politicization in Russia, the working men’s club (Rodchenko).

No ART around – about the (im)possibility to operate a restaurant as art

WE ARE SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THE RELEASE OF THIS BOOK.

No ART around‘ is the book originating from the ‚dreijahre Gastraumprojekt / dining room project‘, a fixed term restaurant which took place in Bremen from 2007-2010. The book is the continuation of the art project and carries the transborder approach one step further: Both in form and content it ranges between artist book and discourse reader. A total of thirteen writers give space to the different levels of the project such as the art concept, atmosphere, social setting, culinary taste and economics, thus open up a general discourse about the borders of art.
