Mapa de Jovens Práticas Espaciais [arqs_pt] / A21

Carl Cheng, Santa Monica Art Tool, 1988

“Desde já, o Mapa de Jovens Práticas Espaciais não é um mapa de estradas e caminhos da jovem arquitectura, não oferece um sistema definitivo de orientação, não propõe uma organização do território da Arquitectura, e, sobretudo, não bidimensionaliza a multiplicidade de actividades e posturas. Pelo contrário, estas práticas tornam problemáticos os contornos do campo da arquitectura, intricando-os com diversos campos entendidos como “extradisciplinares”, isto é, as exterioridades da arquitectura como a política urbana e a filosofia, ou a performance e a organização de eventos. Este mapa, propõe incorporar actividades dispersas e diversas, muitas com pouca visibilidade pública, nem todas identificáveis com a “prática profissional ou projectual do arquitecto”, e redistribui-las, apelando à imaginação e à inventividade de quem o lê.” IM_10

_exhibition Harun Farocki. Against What? Against Whom?

19 November 2009 – 7 February 2010

Raven Row, 56 Artillery Lane, London E1 7LS

In Comparison
Harun Farocki, Germany, 2009, 61m; 16mm, color, sound

“Bricks are the resonating fundamentals of society. Bricks are layers of clay that sound, like records, just simply too thick. Like records they appear in series, but every brick is slightly different—not just another brick in the wall. Bricks create spaces, organize social relations and store knowledge on social structures. They resonate in a way that tells us if they are good enough or not. Bricks form the fundamental sound of our societies, but we haven’t learned to listen to them. Through different traditions of brick production Farocki’s film makes our eyes and ears consider them in comparison—and not in competition, not as clash of cultures. Farocki shows us various brick production sites in their colours, movements and sounds. Brick burning, brick carrying, brick laying, bricks on bricks, no voice off-commentary. Twenty intertitles in 60 minutes tell us something about the temporality of working processes. The film shows us that certain production modes require their own duration and that cultures differentiate around the time of the brick.”

audiowalks _visões úteis _conferência FBAUP

coma01

Um audio-walk é um passeio sonoro. Um guia áudio que conduz o ouvinte por um determinado percurso.

No caso dos audio-walks do Visões Úteis, o percurso é desenhado pela cidade – o espaço público. (…) Mais do que paradoxo temos ilusão. O público só é protagonista da sua própria fruição, como em qualquer espectáculo. E a ligação profunda à realidade é completamente manipulada. Tudo é finalmente ficção. Ainda que a ficção seja criada em estreita ligação com o local e inspirada pelas inúmeras vozes reais que habitam o percurso. Só assim a ilusão é possível. (..) O espectador desloca-se ao local de levantamento do equipamento (Coma Profundo: guichet do fiscal do Mercado da Foz, Porto; Errare: IAT – Tourist Office, Parma) e em troca de um documento de identificação recebe um Discman e respectivos auscultadores e inicia uma experiência audio-espacial que o leva a percorrer várias ruas seguindo as instruções que ouve. A viagem a que se submete acontece numa dimensão definida pela paisagem real por onde se desloca e pela paisagem sonora em que imergiu. No fim, regressa ao ponto de partida para devolver o equipamento.

29 outubro 2009, 17h no auditório do pavilhão novo da FBAUP.

[sessão aberta organizada no âmbito da “Colaboração científica com o projecto Europeu Transformations/FBAUP”, financiado pela Cultura 2000]

Intimate and  Collective: public debate
curated by: Cláudia Martinho, Inês Moreira, Marcin Szczelina
2pm – 6pm, October 10, 2009 Chapiteaux, Bordeaux
_
Evento 2009 is a public event happening through the urban spaces of the city of Bordeaux presenting artistic, architectural and performative installations articulated by the notion of Intime Collectif, the hub concept proposed by its curator, Didier Faustino. Exploring different dimensions of intimacy and collectiveness in public space, every programmed and commissioned art piece, architectural space, ephemeral event and sound experience is addressing situations where Intime Collectif exists. But how, and where, is Intime Collectif  having expression? Is Intime Collectif
a condition of the everyday? Contributing a bit further to the disentanglement and recomposition of the relationships inscribed in the expression of Intime Collectif, a one-day event will take place on October 10, 2009. Named “Intimate and Collective: public debate” it is envisioned as a dialogic afternoon that seeks publicly to expand and unfold the core concept of evento 2009, provoking multi-perceptions of the notions implicated in Intime Collectif.
_

Cláudia Martinho addresses the political and social dimension of Collective Intimacy questioning collective experiences and the sharing of intimate perceptions as a means of [re]appropriation of public space.

Inês Moreira questions whether Collective Intimacy can be clearly stated, proposing it as an ephemeral condition and non-predictive relational moment, occurring beyond declared “intimate collectives”.

Marcin Szczelina, suggests notions of individual immersion in space and corporeal perception of collective intimacy as a way of understanding an architecture of influences, without precise borders.

The research on Intime Collectif contributes to activate a vocabulary and a weblog with contributions from artists’ production process and other invited guests such as Mirosław Bałka, Deadline Architect, Krzysztof Nawratek and Kobberling und Kaltwasser.
The public debate will take place at the meeting point of evento on October 10, in a big tent in the center of Bordeaux by the river Garonne, where three screens, an informal audience, a DJ and a local radio station will be provoked to performatively expand on the notion of Intime Collectif.

Self-dispersing and dramatization (Mujeres Creando)

“A bride wanders in the streets of La Paz dragging her wedding gown, pushing a wedding cake on a wheeled tray. A bride as a mujer creando, a woman constructing, creating (creando) a situation, dressed as a bride, wearing a theatrical costume, borrowing her identity for the length of a walk. She talks with other women on the streets, in the market, on the pavements. “I hate men”… “I hate men”… “I hate men”… is what every woman says, I hate men because they are lazy, I hate men because they exploit women, I hate men because they are in power and they exploit us, I hate men because they have beaten me…”

Paolo Plotegher

Rescaldo e Ressonância! [aftermath and Resonance!]

andrecepeda02-2_net

Aftermath and Resonance! is a speculative project thinking through the spaces wounded during the fire of May 08 at the Rectorate of the University of Porto.

Aftermath and Resonance! is a modest approach, with an austere language, and is made public as a modality of spatial installation and as a publication. The project is born from the fascination for the accident itself, but rejects the spectacle of the catastrophe. It is a research onto the anti-spectacle and onto normality, sounding out the resonances of a non conventional space, performing the rawness and the materiality of the aftermath, and documenting it all through different media (video, photography, sound and space). A spatial essay is exhibited in an installative modality, interpreting and reenacting the consolidation process of the existing spaces through documentary records and materials that a group of contemporary authors collected in the aftermath.

Aftermath and Resonance! is a spatial essay about the potentialities and the metaphorical dimensions of exhibiting in “non conventional” spaces. The publication documents the exhibited projects and is complemented by essays on the ideas of institution, fiction and contingency.

A collaborative project of André Cepeda (photographs), Paulo Mendes (videos), Inês Moreira (curator and spatial concept) and Jonathan Saldanha (sound).
Catalogue with essays: Pedro Bandeira, Filomena Soares and Inês Moreira
