HOLIDAYS IN GREECE



HOLIDAYS IN GREECE is a performative installation that will take place in May 2012, in Berlin, conceived by STUDIOVISITS,  a project of encounters taken in random intervals between artists, theorists,  architects and the public. 

How complex is the current debt crisis?
What kind of paradigm shift is taking place in Greece right now?
How does the rest of the world perceive Greece today?
What kind of action may one take?
Sooner or later? 


Starting out from those questions HOLIDAYS IN GREECE opens up a performative mise-en-scène.  An installation will be set up with works that create multiple narrations; a network of associations and interconnections, within the installation, artists, theorists, poets and the general public are invited to send and/or perform a statement: an extended notion of a performative text that is related to greek/european debt crisis. HOLIDAYS IN GREECE’s intention is to translate the current crisis situation into a different experience of understanding, share and knowledge.
