“Solidarity to overcome distance – Tårnby (DK), Skopje (MK) and the summit”

Text by Andreas Liebmann

“After the Art Spaces and Residences Summit: some thoughts”

Text by Milica Ilic

 

1.

Once again, Skopje feels so easy to comprehend. I have never spent a lot of time there and in fact, don’t know the city well. Like in many other places I’ve been to, I’m incapable of finding my way and have on my mental map only very few references of local places and faces to feel connected to. In fact, in reality, it is just one of those places that a conference or a festival brings me to for two or three days, on very rare occasions.

“What if?” 

Text by Dejan Srhoj

 

It has been three months since our meeting. I am at the office, nobody on the street, nobody at the offices nearby. Everything is silent. I am watching at the entrance of the space we wish to rent. 160m2 one studio, 70 m2 the other one, 10 euro per square meter.

Reflections on the Art spaces and Residence Summit, Kino Kultura, Skopje, December 2019

 

Let me start with an introduction to the events that took place in Copenhagen during the days of our summit. I hope it will be productive to share this with you since I feel that I went through a steep learning curve during those days. The summit was an eye-opener to me, but so was a pending shit storm, which was a growing threat to the survival of Trampoline House.

“Rethinking the idea of art residency”

Text by Violeta Kachakova

 

Observing the concept of residency

In contemporary world of art, the residency, as Florian Schneider[1] precisely explains “connects space and time through a subjectivity that is based on and generates a somehow paradoxical effect: a continuity of temporary presence; furthermore, it is supposed to generate outcomes that sustain, no matter how they perform; and in doing so, it prepares the ground for the possibility to affect change”.
