Time to work against the clock with Node’s traditional “Surprise Challenge”.

We sent the resident curators to challenging locations with the goal of developing an hypothetical project for those specific spaces.  This time the surprise locations were: Markthalle, Raw Tempel and Prinzessinengarten. The three groups had 24 hours to develop and present a project for those locations.

Working on their projects and presentations

Markthalle Berlin

Team 1: Markthalle Berlin

 

Raw Tempel

Team 2: Raw Tempel

 

Team 3: Prinzessinengarten

 

Node opened its doors to the public to present the curatorial resident´s workspace and their ongoing projects. Footnotes is the name of the exercise proposed to curators at Node Center, that consists on displaying the work of an artists in total absence of the artwork itself. The only formal restriction we imposed for this working proposal, is to use curator’s individual desk as a device for presenting the material or solution that the artist and the curator have considered appropriate to show.

We proposed to provide a working dynamic that encourages dialogue and collaboration between artists and curators residing at Künstlerhaus Bethanien and Node Center for Curatorial Studies.

Featuring Curators | Artists : Sandra Kramer | Isabel Simões, Guia Cortassa | Soda_Jerk, Marlies Oud | Julien Grossmann, Lian Ladia + Jerlyn Jareunpoon | Alicia Frankovich, Caterina Benvegnù | Kajsa Dahlberg.
