SURVIVAL KIT

Educational and Artistic Research Programme

A Cooperation between the Academy of Fine Art Munich and the Athens School of Fine Arts

DAAD Programme: Partnerships with Greek Institutions of Higher Education 2014 - 2016

... / about

The aim of the exchange between art students, teachers and art professionals has been to develop the concept of a ‘survival kit’.

This kit contains tools for constructing a joint theoretical perspective and concrete structures and strategies for artistic production through collaboration, with a view towards developing new models of education, solidarity and long term sustainability.

Artists do not function outside of the existing circumstances and therefore have to focus on adressing concrete and acute problems of contemporary society whether material, theoretical or psychological, in order to secure new means and relevant forms of artistic expression.

To this end we have taken the following steps:

• Learning by doing in an educational context that is self-organised and directed

• Realising long-term collaborative projects as well as short-term workshops and exchanges

• Establishing the student-run project space Circuits and Currents

• Creating artistic networks with practitioners, institutions and art schools

• Building local and international audiences

• Researching models for long-term sustainability
