conference / sweet sixties / Istanbul / at /
Sweet Confusion is a conference project that comparatively explores Armenian and Turkish cinematography of the 60s. The conference attempts to reread the socio-political and cultural paradigms of two geopolitically estranged situations, which throughout the 1960s were in the process of self-defining and self-positioning themselves by determining and shaping the “other” through the complex correlation of cultural and political systems.

Lecture by Walter Benjamin: The Unmaking of Art
The Unmaking of Art is a story told by Walter Benjamin about the birth of art and art institutions. It tells us where why and how certain ideas of art (museums, galleries, exhibitions, artist and artwork)
originated, and how they have developed in the last five centuries. In this story the notion of art is not a universal category or something that is characteristic for all cultures, but a specific concept that appeared in the Western world during the period called the Enlightenment
Goran Djordjevic: Against Art Reconstruction of the 1980 exhibition in the Gallery of the Student Cultural Center, Belgrade

We can view the Middle East as a strange territory. Is it a land that’s remote, incomprehensible and foreign or is it, in this media age, in this age of a globalising world and in factoring in all historical contexts, “our” (Czech?, Central European?, Western?) space – a land connected to the culture of many ethnic groups and nations on all continents?

In the past artists grouped together in all sorts of different formations. These days they are far more likely to assert themselves as individuals. Famous erstwhile associations and gatherings, at which progressive authors met up over the course of decades, aged and were not replaced by new ones.

The Artists at Schools project is part of the international collaboration Art mediation in the age of media saturation: how can the potential of art be teased out rather than disciplined? This project is based on a collaboration between three different organizations, Tensta Konsthall in Stockholm, The Latvian Centre for Contemporary Art in Riga, and tranzit.hu in Budapest.
Three artists – Lilla Khoór, Zsolt Keserue, Peter Szabó – will realise projects for the ‘Artist at schools’ project by working with students in three different elementary and high schools in Hungary. The projects will be carried out in spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) of 2012.
