WE ARE LOOKING FOR SUCCESSFULLY RESOLVED CONFLICTS!

We are looking for your stories about conflicts that were amicably settled. They can be stories from your own life, from your workplace, neighbourhood or town. They might be also about conflicts on a global scale. Either you were directly involved, tried to settle the conflict as a third party or just learned about it without being involved. What happened and how was the situation resolved?

A selection of the stories will be re-told for audience within our new project Permanent Negotiations as part of the Cure Park project at Amsterdamse Bos.

How to proceed
In this point it is enough you write us a short description of the conflict and the process of resolving it. We will ask you for more information if needed. Anonymity is guaranteed for those that wish to remain anonymous. Specific names of people or organisations involved in the conflict can be omitted. You can send the conflicts during May and June 2017 to kochta@nexgo.de

This project is part of Cure Park June 4 through July 16, 2017 – a big outdoor event organised by TAAK this summer.

PROFESSORSHIP AT THE ACADEMY OF FINE ARTS, HELSINKI

We are excited to work as visiting professors at the Academy of Fine Arts in Helsinki during 2017. Our course creates a complex artistic snapshot of Finland in the year 2017. Together with the students we will map and discuss current tendencies, conflicts and phenomena  and will process them with the artistic tools at our disposal.  Looking behind the curtains of the 100 years of independence celebrations the course asks what’s actually going on in the state of Finland?

PLAY HOUSE BY YKON @ BALTIC CIRCLE, HELSINKI, 19 NOV, 2016

A flat filled with dozens of people, drinks, food, music… and then what? YKON invites you to play and experiment with the conventions of social interaction. This evening will show whether simple, low-tech game mechanics can radically alter how people relate to each other.

Welcome to the suspension, deconstruction and general messing around and reconfiguration with social interactions. Welcome to a collective journey to something else than party as usual. Welcome to Play House!

This four-hour event will take place in a yet undisclosed location. Guests will receive further instructions via sms.
