… at Mies pavillion :)
Opening on the 25th May 2011 @ Mies and on the 26th @ Fira.
We´ll be part of the project ”Art for Living” by Lab´Bel, at Mies Van Der Rohe Pavillion and at Swab Art Fair.
Besides the quality and the prestige of such venues, it is a wonderful feeling getting back to this exquisite building where I spent so much time during the Erasmus Program at ETSAB, and the Metropolis Master at CCCB. In those days, a very precise program of conferences and talks happen in the summer´s evenings, and students and professionals gathered around the lake attending the talks. Hope to revive that atmosphere.

Experimentar
Milplanaltos é um espaço de constituição de linhas de fuga entre disciplinas.
Teremos por desígnio cartografar as regiões de contacto, as contaminações, as passagens que se fazem inscrever entre áreas disciplinares diversas, assumindo-se que a interioridade de tais circunscrições disciplinares com as suas axiomática e estruturação não nos permitem experimentar.
Experimentar é assim ir ao encontro das linhas de fuga que fazem do pensar um acto criativo. Os conceitos não são, neste sentido, meras imagens do mundo; isto é, imagens que vão ao encontro de um mundo sem mediação – esta é uma das acepções de «verdade» que importa descartar. Os conceitos são filosóficos, de acordo com a estratégia deleuziana que aqui se reclama, porque criam possibilidades de pensamento que estão para lá daquilo que é conhecido ou assumido. Pensar é, neste sentido, uma actividade que faz multiplicar os possíveis, que nos faz constituir novas linhas de fuga.
Assume-se que a nossa estratégia é a de realizar conexões entre domínios eles próprios dinâmicos e conectivos. E esta estratégia irá implicar a realização deligações entre arte, literatura, filosofia e ciência.
Pretende-se, neste sentido, reunir contribuições múltiplas. Estas contribuições serão colocadas em diálogo. Este diálogo será potenciado por encontros mensais que obedecerão a um cronograma.
Neste blog dar-se-á notícia deste esforço e serão reunidas as contribuições dos diversos investigadores. Poderão ainda ser pensadas outras modalidades de intervenção e diálogo.

curating and architecture
Moderadora: Inês Moreira (University of London)
Data: Terça-feira, 22 de Fevereiro de 2011
Hora: 17h30 – 19h00
Local: Café Ceuta, Rua de Ceuta, 20 (à Praça de D. Filipa de Lencastre, no Porto)
Linhas recentes de investigação em Estudos Curatoriais que articulam uma reflexão crítica sobre a objectualidade, os sistemas culturais e a própria noção de academia, abrem um novo espaço para a Curadoria de Arquitectura enquanto investigação sobre o espaço. Partindo de referências e exterioridades do campo disciplinar estabilizado da Arquitectura, na intersecção da crítica de tecno-ciência, a literatura, e a reflexão sobre o próprio modo de pensar, abre-se a potencialidade de pensar a curadoria como prática criativa e um modo de investigação em Arquitectura. Propõe-se uma conversa sobre estas questões e um projecto concreto. A discussão irá ser baseada numa selecção de curtos excertos de textos por Donna Haraway, Irit Rogoff, Bruno Latour e Inês Moreira. Todos são bem-vindos. Para obter cópias das leituras ou para obter informação adicional, por favor escreva para historiadeespacos@gmail.com. Sobre o Grupo de Trabalho de História Global de Espaços: o grupo de trabalho junta doutorandos e docentes de uma variedade de disciplinas para discutir investigação sobre a história de espaços construídos, num âmbito cronológico e geográfico abrangente. O objectivo do grupo é possibilitar a intersecção e a interacção entre a história da arquitectura, a história da paisagem, o planeamento, a geografia, a antropologia, os estudos culturais, e outros campos que explorem a formação do ambiente construído.

unmapping the city [intellect books]
Unmapping the City, the first title in the new Intellect series ‘Critical Photography’, features photographs shot between 2004 and 2008 in fourteen different cities around the world. The images are linked by their shared attempts to define a two-dimensional approach to a three-dimensional built reality, and to address spatial representation and urbanity through art. In representing the cityscape through a flat texture of lines and minimal colour tones, they draw the reader into a conversation about the interplay between reality and its representation. This volume, by significantly challenging and expanding the discourse on photography and text and instigating a critical re-evaluation of the relationship between photography, perception and the city, will be of interest to artists, curators, photographers, architects, and critical theorists.

back from silence
after a long, long, long silence, I will be back to publishing and updating the petit CABANON blog. so, the next posts are an archive of materials and bits of publications, and talks, and other events in which I have been involved in the past 6 months. it seems that the many different crisis in which we are all involved have affected the periodicity and scale of events. but not its intensity nor satisfaction.

Scenography Expanding 3: On Curating
September 27 – 29, 2010
Festival Escrita na Paisagem and Centro de História da Arte e Investigação Artística (CHAIA), Évora, Portugal
In his 2008 Whitechapel Gallery talk, Boris Groys pointed toward „exhibition practice as the cure that heals the originally ailing image, that gives it presence, visibility; it brings it to the public view and turns it into the object of the public`s judgement. However, one can say that curating functions as a supplement, like a pharmakon in the Derridean sense: it both cures the image and further contributes to its illness“ .
The ambivalent gestures of curatorial practice in both „healing“ and, possibly, „infecting“ or „contaminating“ come into particular, – and contested – focus when the object that is exhibited is nothing more but the remnant of a past performative event. Can the scenographic object be „helped“ by the curators effort in order to achieve a status of autonomy beyond ist original co-authored mode of production? Or must it be transformed into another genre (installation) to be exhibited? Can we identify an intrinsic essence of the scenographic object in relation / in contrast to exhibition space and public viewing?
In the third and last symposium before the June 2011 Prague Quadrennial for Perfomance Design and Space (PQ), curators and artists from the performing arts, visual arts and spatial design disciplines are invited to enter into a transdisciplinary dialogue on the challenges of exhibiting the ephemeral, the fleeting, the immaterial – the performative event and the scenographic space.
Speakers include: Maria Federica Maestri (Director of Natura dei Teatri, Italy), Radivoje Dinulović (Scenographer and Theoretician, Serbia), Christian Teckert (Architect and Academic, Germany/ Austria), Katharina Schlieben (Curator, Germany) Joanna Warsza (Curator, Poland), Randy Martin (Theory, USA), Dorita Hannah (Architect and Scenographer, Curator for PQ Architecture Section, New Zealand).
The official language of the symposium is ENGLISH.

restart: on
A conversation at lunch with a well read blogger and a few personal lines of a post reflecting on that conversation, would come to trigger a viral discussion in-between bloggers, facebookers and emailers. Who would tell? Thinking out-loud makes it´s damages, or, generates affect. As for us, petit CABANON will restart from a 2 day pause. This summer is warming up. [restart]
