Part 2 - “Composting“ Agenda

Part 2 - Composting Agenda 

Online: 03. - 07. October 


The Compost is a place for ‘composting’ – a process that aims to fertilize the specific ground where curatorial methods and practices in the performing arts take place. 

‘Composting’ is about sharing and exchanging materials and resources with a wide range of experiences and knowledge produced inside and outside the usual academic context. To engage in composting means to share interests, knowledge, and experiences on curating, and to let ’the compost’ work as a co-existing and co-creative space for a multitude of perspectives, simultaneously negotiating what this process will do, or become. curatingincontext.com/resources/composting/

Silke Balke, Tove Salmgren, Biljana Tanurovska – Kj and Una Bauer are offering and inviting in exploring, exchanging, and thinking diverse approaches of common work with diverse materials (texts, videos, objects, ideas, etc.) that can/will be used in the development of the curatorial ideas, practices, and processes of working by the students.

Since 2016 she leads, together with the artist Kajsa Wadhia, Köttinspektionen Dans, an artist-driven platform and place for experimental dance and choreography in Uppsala, Sweden.

Curating in Context Summer School Struga, Northern Macedonia, August 29 – September 5, 2022   Con-texts: the curatorial, the lake, the writing bodies and bodies of water  Few notes from Struga Summer School / a collective diary of sharing thoughts Anka Herbut, Elena Novakovits, Jette Büchsenschütz, Kasia Wolińska,   Maeve Johnson, Maša Radi Buh Collage by Kasia Wolińska Where is your body now? How does it feel?  Cause my body, for instance, is trying to recall and tune in to the feeling it experienced when the above questions were introduced at the very beginning of the Summer School in Struga. We were sitting on a sunny terrace in a circle, facing each other, trying to return to our bodies in order to feel what we’re coming with, what we could bring into the collective process that was just about to begin, what we were ready (or not) to share. My body came to Struga quite overwhelmed by holidays which actually were not so holidayish, but instead they were rich ...
