COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE ART LONGA PROJECT

Troisième volet d'échange avec @collectiveintelligence_art Longa project,
5-25 August 2024
During the month of August, a number of artists will meet in Helsinki. They will get to know Helsinki's Kalasatama, Suvilahti and Kallio areas. They have the intention of collaborating and generally leaving an impactful trace of their interventions in these locations.
From the 15th and until the 25th of August, the gallery will display the productions of this summer’s art experiments, whatever they happen to be, perhaps in the form of performances, sound creations, videos, maps of where activities have taken place or are taking place, paintings and other artistic observations.
The project will also act as a meeting point between foreign and domestic artists who have been working in their profession for a long time. At its best, it will enable artists to network widely; to exchange of workspaces and works, enhance cooperation, as well as stimulate positive ’exchange of mutual energy’ (Carita Savolainen's term).
At the same time, the project will open up to the audience in the gallery. 13 artists participate in the project:
@gillesbingisser,
