Inside Out ̶ Critical Artistic Debates Concerning Institutions

External activity | Yane Calovski | Conference “Inside Out-Critical Artistic Debates Concerning Institutions” | City Museum of Ljubljana | 20-21 November, 2016.

The general aim of the conference Inside Out is to take a close look at the theoretical propositions and critical art practices of artists, art collectives, researchers, and institutions from Central and South-Eastern Europe that focus on redefining the existing models of institutions, reframing their programs, and improving working conditions in art production. The participants will talk about the changing relations between artists and museums, galleries, and other public and private spaces (involved in producing, presenting, and collecting contemporary art) in our time of socio-political and economic shifts, and reflect on the need to pursue alternative cross-institutional or trans-institutional models of institutions, devise strategies for them, and redefine their roles.

The questions the conference will broach are the following: How did artists and institutions engage in establishing new positions and critical discourses in the dominant art historical narratives? How did formal and artist-run institutions and other artists’ initiatives influence or even change one another in interaction during the transition from a centralized to a free market economy? What impact did artists and art projects have on formulating the demand for institutions’ accountability by calling for inside-out transformations?
