Retreating Ahead: artistic and curatorial speculations
Start date: May 1, 2013,

 Two major new bodies of work by artists Gintaras Didziapetris ('Colour and Device') and Melvin Moti ('The Fourth Dimension) Six exhibitions, two in each of the three host countries that will present and adapt the two new works to the contrasting institutional contexts of CAC Vilnius and Kunstverein Haburger Bahnhof, and Pavilion, that presents work outside of the formal art gallery space, in Leeds, UK. An events series in the form of a three part 'free school': This forum will be hosted for a week in each country and will draw out ideas being explored through the two new works via contributions from philosophers, art historians and critics. It will also include mentoring for young artists and be a space for self-organised activity to flourish. Two artist publications that will illuminate and extend the visual art works produced. A culminating publication that will document and expand upon the project through new commissioned writing, reproduced essays, interviews with artists and images.  Professional development: A small network of young artists/ curators from the three participating cities will be selected and supported to take part in the free school structure. Touring network: The project will establish a tripartite touring network between the organisations that would have the potential to create an ongoing structure for the circulation of new work between like-minded organisations.  A curatorial network. The three curators leading on the project will meet six times over the course of the three years to devise and run the project. Through these meetings we will formalise a pan-European curatorial network that will bring together organisations from West, Central and Eastern Europe together in intercultural dialogue. Following the end of the project the network will be solidified and meet annually for in-depth curatorial exchange.
