- ArticleArchives in the Age of Transformation of Art Institutions: An Art Preservation Strategy or a Curatorial Experiment?Kupková, Marika; Szűcsová, Monika (2022) , S. 1This paper presents the development of the curatorial research project Black Box, which was established in the spring of 2020 in the Brno TIC Gallery to support contemporary art and artists at a time when artists and cultural institutions were affected by the existential crisis caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic. This experimental archive, which initially appeared to be temporary, has been developing its activities for a second year in a row. This text aims to provide a report on the ongoing remakes and postproductions of this archive and present various curatorial interventions carried out on the archived works of the participating artists. We observe a shift of exhibition institutions towards community centres with a diversified program, raising their social awareness and critical self-reflection, and building new means of communication on the axis of the artist-spectator. Especially in the latter area, creating and enabling access to an art archive is an essential tool.
- ArticleConstant changes, silent witnesses. Über Bewegung als Beobachtung und Kontemplation am Beispiel von Istanbulİhraç, Jasmin (2022) , S. 1-18„Constant changes, silent witnesses“ ist der Titel des Films, den ich 2018/19 in Istanbul gedreht habe und in dem ich mich mit den schnellen und stetigen Veränderungsprozessen der Stadt auseinandersetze. Der Film verweist auf mehrere thematische Diskurse: Er behandelt die andauernden Gentrifizierungsprozesse, denen Istanbul in besonderer Schnelligkeit unterworfen zu sein scheint. Gleichzeitig verweist er auf die Idee der Kontinuität, symbolisiert durch die alten Bäume der Stadt, die wie Zeugen der Geschehnisse wirken. Eine dritte Diskurslinie zeichnen die Wege der Protagonistin – von mir selbst –, die unterschiedliche Orte und Gegebenheiten durch „tänzerische Streifzüge“ in der Stadt erkundet und über das Medium Tanz im Film zu vermitteln sucht. Die Prozesse vor Ort transportieren sich über die tänzerische Bewegung durch die Stadt.

- ArticleEnvisioning Future Bodies: Choy Ka Fai’s experimental practice at the interface of choreography, media art and archival processesFai, Choy Ka; Ortmann, Lucie (2022) , S. 1-26Berlin-based Singaporean dance and multimedia artist Choy Ka Fai experiments with digital mapping, the storage and transmission of choreography and Asian spiritual dance practices. He has built a comprehensive and growing archive of recorded choreographies from artistic, spiritual, folkloric, and pop cultural contexts. It includes avatars of dancers, field and video recordings of dances and rituals and interviews with various protagonists. Choy Ka Fai explores altered and expanded corporeal states and the relationships between bodies and both worldly and spiritual phenomena. In his work, organic, material and data-based bodies appear side by side on an equal level and futuristic and queer potentials of human and digital bodies are made visible. In conversation with Lucie Ortmann Choy Ka Fai emphasises the fundamental importance of the practise of archiving for his work. He talks about his methods of showing and sharing his extensive, collected and created material in constantly new formats, ranging from performance, video installation, lecture to digital games, and how he continues to develop it further. He also reflects on the challenging processes of transferring and translating spiritual practises and dance cultures to different contexts and audiences.
- ArticleThe film archive as a polyphonic network – a montage on the Mediateca Onshore projectCésar, Filipa; Hering, Tobias; Elisabet Eitel, Verena (2022) , S. 1-17It’s not easy to describe the Mediateca Onshore project as it is growing over the years, uniting an ever-wider variety of initiatives and sub-projects: It is a work in process in which numerous actors have participated since its inception. Here, text passages from the website and two previously published texts by Filipa César and Tobias Hering form a kind of montage. Montage, in the sense of a multiplicity of voices bringing together the various text forms and perspectives of the authors and other participating actors, seems a most appropriate way to present the project and reflect its character. Filipa César and Tobias Hering are key players in and co-founders of Mediateca Onshore. Tobias Hering’s text “Before ʹSix Years Afterʹ. Notes on the re-emergence of a film archive in Guinea Bissau” (first published in 2012, republished with annotations in 2014), which frames the montage, is based on conversations with Filipa César. On that level, but not only, it is connected to César’s “A Grin Without Marker” (2016) the other text used in the montage.

- ArticleGallery inside out. Videomapping as Performative Mediation of the Vasulkas’ Videoart ArchiveHoráková, Jana (2022) , S. 1This paper presents the performative exhibition “Vasulka Live Archive/video mapping” (20 December 2021, Brno House of Arts) in terms of the creative strategy and format chosen for it and in terms of the broader context of the exhibition project “Vasulka Live Archive/Interfaces”. This work has the character of a music video, created from fragments of videos by Steina and Woody Vasulka, which are interwoven with visualizations of the analytical work of artificial neural networks. The result is a new audiovisual work based on a remix aesthetic. Information on the 'Vasulka Kitchen Brno Archive' has been added by Barbora Šedivá and Kateřina Drajsajtlová.

- ArticleNyota Inyoka, Biography, Archive. On the research project “Border-Dancing Across Time”Cramer, Franz Anton (2022) , S. 1-21Die Tänzerin, Choreographin und Autorin Nyota Inyoka (1896-1971) steht im Zentrum eines Forschungsprojekts, das vom österreichischen Fonds zur Förderung der wissenschaftlichen Forschung (FWF) seit Juni 2019 über den Zeitraum von drei Jahren gefördert wird. Eine der drei Forschungsfragen bezieht sich auf den Bereich der Biographieforschung. Doch Nyota Inyokas Lebensgeschichte spannt sich aus in einem komplexen Gebilde von Faktizität, Invention, Legendenbildung und Selbstbestimmung, ihre Identitätspolitik changiert zwischen selbstbewirkter Verschleierung, sozialer Dynamik, künstlerischer Transgression und zeithistorischer Vereinnahmung im Zeichen des europäischen Kolonialismus. Die Biographieforschung nähert sich im Forschungsverlauf einer Dynamik, die der Unabgeschlossenheit des Archivs als materiellem Wissens- und hermeneutischem Kulturraum entspricht. Der Beitrag resümiert erste Ergebnisse und fasst „das Biographische“ als „Archivisches“, um die Paradigmen des In-Sich-Abgeschlossenen auf der einen Seite, der beständigen Neukonfigurierung auf der anderen Seite methodisch zu verknüpfen.
- ArticleThe Qualities and Significance of DocumentationDekker, Annet; Giannachi, Gabriella (2022) , S. 1-13Documentation is usually regarded as an art project’s remain or trace that is created and used in different ways. In performance and digital art, documentation has become the focus of conservation and presentation strategies; however, there is a lack of standardized methods on how to make effective use of the different types of documentation. Using case studies from their own collections/practices, LIMA in Amsterdam, in collaboration with Tate and various artists / initiatives, in June 2020 organized a series of workshops to identify a typological framework of documentation. Specific attention was paid to performative installations, performance art in the museum, networked and research-based art projects.
- ArticleTraining the Archive. Fragen an ein Forschungsprojekt zur Entwicklung und zum Einsatz von KI in der MuseumspraxisHunger, Francis; Büscher, Barbara (2022) , S. 1-15„Training the Archive“ ist ein Kooperationsprojekt zwischen dem Ludwig Forum Aachen, dem Hartware MedienKunstVerein Dortmund sowie dem Visual Computing Institute der RWTH Aachen University. Das Projekt widmet sich visuellen Archiven und der Frage, wie in diesen Sammlungen neue Zusammenhänge mittels ‚Machine Learning‘ hergestellt werden können. Ziel ist die forschungsbasierte Entwicklung einer Software, die Kurator:innen und Künstler:innen neue Zugänge zu digitalisierten Bildsammlungen ermöglicht. Francis Hunger, einer der beteiligten Forscher erläutert im Gespräch einige Bedingungen, Determinanten und Kontextualisierungen dieses Projekts.
