Meetings - Mid & West Jutland

Presented by Foreningen ET4U

Feel the pulse of today’s video and performance art as it unfolds in unexpected contexts and locations in rural Jutland. MEETINGS is a video and performance project focused on the area around Nissum Fjord that unfolds in Central and West Jutland between 2016-2019, during this time, international contemporary artists take up residence in there.

They will produce a number of videos and performances which take place and are produced in collaboration with the Central and West Jutland region, to present an artistic look at the area seen from the outside. The project will enhance the identity of the region through production and display of art works created by artists in collaboration with locals. The works will be displayed in nontraditional places, such as stables, barns, churches, abandoned residential houses, commercial buildings, gravel pits.

The project's first festival takes place 1-10 September 2017, where, in addition to the works produced by MEETINGS, a series of videos, thematically related to MEETINGS and curated by Danish and foreign collaborators, will be on show. During the festival, we will arrange an open symposium alongside the exhibitions, where artists and collaborators will contribute.
