Calin Dan
Memory Tags (A Lounge)
31 August - 6 October 2007
Opening 6pm Thursday 30 August
Amsterdam-based Romanian art critic, curator and artist
Calin Dan will exhibit his work at the Experimental Art
Foundation. Nomadic cultures, ephemeral architecture,
urban sub-cultures and
zones of conflict are just a few of the tags that can be
used to think about Dan’s video/film/installation
work—a mode of art production that resists easy
categorisation. Calin Dan’s audio-visual narratives
engage the viewer in stories embedded in a Europe of
post-Soviet era
perspectives. The stories are often culturally
unfamiliar, yet entice the viewer to stay and watch a
little longer (‘lounge’) with ordinary
‘in-the-world’ imagery and situations. The
artist has
developed the concept of 'Emotional Architecture', a
blend of personal observations, folklore, historical
narratives and architectural critique. A publication of
the work of Calin Dan, published
by the EAF for this exhibition titled ... til here from
now ... an
Emotional Architecture stopover will be available. 48pp
with texts and images by Calin Dan and introductory essay
by Teri Hoskin. ISBN 978-0-949836-53-3
workshop: city tags
24-31 August
While in residence Calin Dan will lead a six-day workshop
titled City Tags with artists from South Australia and
interstate. Dan and the participants will examine the
city via tagging practices and
cultures using video, sound and still imagery. Workshop
registration is now closed.
artist talk and lecture:
Experimental Art Foundation,
4pm Friday 31 August.
