*public plaiv* investigates the culture and the economy of La Plaiv, an alpine region of Oberengadin in which tourism plays an important role. There, the competition to attract new businesses and the marketing/sell-out of local resources and traditions threaten to increasingly polarize the locals’ image of themselves and how outsiders perceive them, and to drive a wedge between natives, tourists and guest workers. Invited artists conceptualize artworks that open up fields of new social functions. The first series of works premiered in July 2003.
An interdisciplinary research project by the Department of Fine Arts of the School of Art and Design Zurich in cooperation with the Chair in Modern and Contemporary Art of the University of Zurich. |
