The name of my project is RE. RE stands for re-visiting, re-winding, re-building, or re-construction and re-flection. With this title it is clear that it’s not something new – it is something “RE.” The project RE is re-visiting the experience Musée Précaire Albinet. I want to do a visual manifest about this work in public space, about the questions that arose, about the questions that the work confronted, about the questions I asked myself. RE is a project in order to understand myself and to give form to the problmeatic, to the complexity provoked by the experience Musée Précaire Albinet. RE is not a documentation and RE is not a piece of art. RE is a work that wants to contribute, to enlighten and wants to give answers and create new questions on four topics. All of these four topics are closely related to the Musée Précaire Albinet and its experience. They are: Utopia, The Other, Precariousness and the Autonomy of Art. With these four thematic outcomes from the Musée Précaire Albinet, I want to make RE function as a non-resigned and a non-reconciled artistic statement.
I want RE to display a try: an attempt to make an artistic assertion as answer – and at the same time as questions to myself facing such things as the Iraq War, Guantanamo Bay, September 11th, Abu Ghraib, Asylum Camp, and Nuclear Bomb Threat. RE wants to express this without fear of problematic, contradiction or proximity – but with an artistic position, with an artistic work and with artistic form.
