Creative Strategies
Through 3 different modules, the project investigates the ways and impacts of personal and group strategies and inventions that contribute to a better daily life of the individual and the community
Multidisciplinary artistic-research project, 2010 – 2016
In the Creative Strategies project Andreja Kulunčić explores the forms and the effects of coping, or personal and group strategies and inventions that contribute to a better everyday life for individual and community in the face of frequently absent or inadequate institutional mechanisms. The modular structure of the project presupposes the interweaving of theoretical research, practical art and critically reflective modules. The artistic projection involves diverse methodologies and media.
The goal of the project is to develop a platform for understanding, exchanging and creating new creative strategies as a response to specific social situations and conditions, as well as their activation in the real social fabric.
The artistic production of the project is organized by modules. Each module has its own specific way of approaching the topic and through a practical process, different methodologies are developed within each module as well as ways of analysing the results. The modules are complementary, forming a whole project, but they also function independently (exhibition, book, theoretical discussion, web site, etc.), or in combination with one or several other project modules at the same time. Exhibitions, presentations and analyses of modules run parallel to their creation.
The three main modules of the project are:
First Modul: Everyday Divergences (2011)
Second Modul: Conquering and Constructing the Common (2013−2014)
Third Modul: Toolkit for a Joint Action (2014−2016)
