Burak Delier \"Contradiction as a Method\"@SALT(15.06.2012/12:15)

The issue of idiosyncratic forms of presentation is the starting point for Staging Knowledge, a two-day event organized by Changing Identities and Contexts in the Arts (CICA), curated by İnci Eviner, Jan Kaila and Henk Slager in collaboration with SALT. Starting from the concept of artistic knowledge production, the participating artists discuss and demonstrate how performative dimensions play a significant role in – rehearsing - various practices such as interventions in public space, formulation of artistic and research strategies, development of display systems and curatorial perspectives, and generation of artists’ texts and artists’ lectures.
