Mary Jane at Lunch Lecture



The Empty Conversation

documenta 12 Art education
Discussion between Mary Jane Jacob, Jacquelyn Braas, Ulrich Schötker

What emotions can an artwork engender in the individual viewer? This roundtable conversation will consider the conditions under which memorable, even profound or life-changing art experiences can arise. The speakers will also discuss the role of an empty, open space for contemplation, in which the viewer can experience an act of creation akin to the creative act of the artist.

OPEN VILLAGE

Dear open-space-participants,


our planning concerning the “Open Space Project” is already running at a high speed.
Our main-subject at the moment is to find a fitting village-structure.
In the near future there are about 20 temporary houses planned where you will live in for nine days.

To ensure a good organization and a relaxed being-together among the participants of “Open Space” we have got some more questions for you, which are needed being answered to make a good planning possible.

Apart from the individual homes, the food-section and the lavatories there is the need to find the appropriate concept for common or collective activities. We would love to do this together with you! It would be helpful if you could tell us what kind of activities you imagine and desire and intend to persue as possible common actvity. If everyone of you lets us know, what is important for him or her, we could integrate this in to our planning.

It will be easiest if you make a comment at the blog (http://openspacekassel.blogspot.com/) or sent us an email with you ideas and proposals.
We are certain to receive the most interesting and helpful hints from you. In advance we would like to thank you for your inspirations and creative ideas.

Best regards


The infrastructure-Team (
Sebastian Klinghammer., Eike Rothauge and Noel Schaub)
