Urban Interventions: Artistic Perspectives (UIAP)



Residency Program

UIAP is a one-off project to be realized in 2009 for enabling visual artists from Turkey to attend a residency program in Linz, Austria, from July to September, 2009, and again from October to December, 2009. The program will be reciprocated in 2010 in Istanbul.

Goal:
The project “Urban Interventions” aims at inviting artists from Europe to explore various urban landscapes in different cities. It creates, within the framework of artist residency programs and activities, a platform for interaction and exchange both on a local level, as well as within a broader, inter-regional spectrum.

The project will include artists from 5 countries from Europe (Liverpool-UK, Dortmund-GE, Tallinn-EE, Istanbul-TR, And Linz-AT), developing urban art projects within the span of 3 to 6 month residencies at one of the project partner cities.

Selection Process:
UIAP Applications will be reviewed by a committee of five professionals, including but not limited to curators, who have experience in international residencies. There will be one representative from Platform Garanti.

Selection Criteria:
Artists who have a demonstrable interest in public spaces, urban initiatives and interventions, as well as mobilization of artistic practices and exchanges.

The Language Habitat: an Ecopoetry Manifesto

The Language Habitat: an Ecopoetry Manifesto By James Engelhardt Ecopoetry is connection. It’s a way to engage the world by and through language. This poetry might be wary of language, but at its core believes that language is an evolved ability that comes from our bodies, that is close to the core of who we are in the world. Ecopoetry might borrow strategies and approaches from postmodernism and its off-shoots, depending on the poet and their interests, but the ecopoetic space is not a postmodern space. An ecopoem might play with slippages, but the play will lead to further connections. Ecopoetry does share a space with science. One of the concerns of ecopoetry is non-human nature (it shares this concern with the critical apparatus it borrows from, ecocriticism). It certainly shares that concern with most of the world’s history of poetry: How can we connect with non-human nature that seems so much more, so much larger than ourselves? How can we understand it?

Satın Alınamayan Ortak Kader “Yeni Normal”

Yeni normal.Şu günlerde oldukça duyduğumuz bu kavram  tuhaf ve ıssız olan bir uzamda huzursuzluğun kaygıya doğru  birleşme yarattığı noktada var olmakta.İçimizde bulunduğumuz gerçeklik şimdilerde böyle tarif ediliyor.Acaba gerçekten böyle mi? Yeni ve normal mi?Yeni olan gerçeklik acaba normalleştirici mi?  Bugünlerde çoğu insan nasıl normalleşeceğimiz konusunda tartışıyor, kakafonik tarzda bu tartışmalar hiçbir  şeyin eskisi gibi olmayacağını ifade eden gürültülü haber bültenlerine yakın benzerlikte yorumlarla beraber buharlaşıyor.Aslında anlamların, kavramların,temsillerin ağına yakalanan  vahşi anlamsız  bedenler olduğumuz gerçeği (Erasmusvari tabiriyle bir  “homo bulla”)ile karşı karşıyayız.Bunun yanı sıra insan hayatında korku ve izalosyonun tam ortasındayken derin ve olumlu bir değişim olabileceği inancıyla uyanıyoruz.Kapitalizmin rasyonalitesi ve şiddetli sonuçları olan ırkçılık, cinsiyetçilik ve eşitsizlikle karşı karşıya kalan insanlar olarak kendi “elleriyle” işledikler
