Buchpräsentation, Lesung


The history and activity of the Artpool Art Research Center is a proof of how complex and diverse the understandings of an active archive are. The structure and contents of the book open up a complete universe of historical and contemporary intermedia. We have to realize that thinking and acting in transnational networks isn´t only a product of globalization but is a phenomenon that existed even in the supposed isolation of late socialism.

The aim of the round table discussion is to debate the behavior and the art activities that generate an archive like Artpool, to outline the specifics of East-Central-European culture-political circumstances that lead to such artistic behavior and activity, to discuss ways of knowledge transmission and the legitimation respectively future of experimental forms of archiving.
