ABOUT THE PROJECT
A small group of participants attend an informal seminar, a collective reflection about different writing approaches in art or about art. During the seminar, we analyze texts and writings from various disciplines or from various discursive perspectives. The reading lists are made together with the guests who take over the hosting of the Reading Club. The Reading Club is about comparing and discussing different writing approaches, rethinking what we call History of art in a contemporary art context and examining writing and creation practices. We question the relationship between the text and the artwork and the text as an artwork, as well as the contribution to the thoughts and critical discourse generated by the artist-run centres.
