NUrope at the Supermarket IV

art, recent work

In the booths, at the entrance, by the toilets, among the people… everywhere at the Supermarket, I encounter art as a means of expression.

I feel oxygene is running out; trying to live by exhaling causes exhaustion.

Seeking spots to breathe. Looking for art as a mode of awareness, ‘gentle empiricism’ – once more quoting Goethe.

This piece by Jan Cardell (from the Abandoned Gallery, Malmö, Sweden) I enjoyed.090214

Jan Cardell: Pin-Pong; musical sculpture operated by the viewer. Electrically generated movements produce five different sounds forming complex and flexible rhythms.

How can the Nomadic University visualize itself at an art fair?

NUrope characteristics are the notebooks, the table, and the chairs; notebooks for reflection, a table for sharing, and chairs for resting in movement…

Now, the artworks are our (transformed) notebooks.  Our 2 x 2 metres’ booth is the space shared at the Supermarket. The nomadic chairs we bring for you.

Opening tomorrow. Be welcome!
