ECAL x Bloc studios: Rational Balance Collection,06–09.06.2019,EDIT Napoli ECAL x Bloc studios: Rational Balance Collection On the occasion of EDIT Napoli from 6 to 9 June 2019, ECAL and Bloc studios present a collection of projects by BA Industrial Design students. IMAGES HD Marble connotes weight, stability and robustness, and is a quintessentially noble material. In light of this, what kind of objects are able to take full advantage of these properties? How can the sensations of balance or weight be fully expressed, while respecting the innate qualities and limits of this substance? This was the question that ECAL /University of Art and Design Lausanne Industrial Design Bachelor s students addressed in 2016 at a workshop led by Swiss designers Joséphine Choquet and Virgile Thévoz. This collection has been jointly developed over recent years by Bloc studios and ECAL, and comprises a selection of objects that focus on the rational balance between materials and proportions – playful ball-joint mirrors, punk marble plates pierced through with steel, marble vases in tension with aluminium, minimal tub plugs and mesmerising wedged vases. Press preview (invitation only): Thursday 6 June from 4.30pm to 6.30pm Friday to Sunday from 10 am to 7pm Complesso di San Domenico Maggiore Vico San Domenico Maggiore 18 Napoli (Italia) https://editnapoli.com www.bloc-studios.com
Aesthetics of Sustainability Aesthetics of Sustainability aims to explore and define the aesthetics of a new generation of sustainable materials. Sustainability is one of the most important topics of the 21st century. Design, as a discipline of innovation, must play a leading role in optimising the environmental impact of all by-products and processes in the production of designed goods. All too often, most people take a stereotypical view of “sustainable products”. They are often associated with dirty colours and unpleasant aesthetics, owing to the use of second-grade, recycled, “primitive”, natural or non-processed materials. Furthermore, they are usually associated with higher prices or inferior quality. Aesthetics of Sustainability aims to explore and define the aesthetics of a new generation of sustainable materials. The goals of the project are to push boundaries, explore aesthetics and define a contemporary language of sustainable materials and products through a systematic process of investigation, experimentation, creation and development within the context of product design. The low impact of products is not only necessary, but it is also about to become a unique selling point for manufacturers. The tipping point when eco-friendly materials become more easily available and financially competitive on a larger scale will soon be reached. The outcome of the project is a series of 14 dossiers on the explored materials as well as mock-ups and prototypes of the resulting products. The project offers a future generation of designers an array of operational tools and knowledge which explain how to discover, analyse and process seminal materials, how to work best with their qualities and how to turn them into functional yet aesthetically intriguing objects.Main applicant sECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne (project leader)Research team (senior researcher) (professor) (professor) (research assistant) (research assistant) (photographer) (photographer)Visiting lecturersYves Corminboeuf, Alexandre Echasseriau, Adam Fairweather, Beat Karrer, Chris Lefteri, Yves Leterrier, Mieke Meijer, Axel Norlander, Martin PostlerStudents1st-year MA students in Product Design, ECAL, class of 2018-2019: , , , , , , , ,, , , , , Periodseptember 2017 – july 2019Supported byECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne Strategic fund of the University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland (HES-SO RCDAV)DisseminationPublication Thilo Alex Brunner, Aesthetics of sustainability.

Victoria and Albert Museum Blavatnik Hall Cromwell Road London, SW7 2RL www.vam.ac.uk UPDATE: After the Milan Design Week, the exhibition "ECAL Digital Market" will be presented from 9 to 17 June 2018 (including a few days during Art Basel et Design Miami/ Basel) at the Vitra Design Museum (Schaudepot) in Weil am Rhein. Opening: Every day, from 10am to 6pm Vitra Design Museum Charles-Eames-Str. 2 D-79576 Weil am Rhein www.design-museum.de In partnership with the 3D printing company Formlabs, ECAL Master Product Design students present a range of innovative everyday life objects, produced through a print farm within the exhibition and sold directly on site. Projects from ECAL faculty and alumni are also available. The concept was imagined by Camille Blin, head of the Master Product Design, and Christophe Guberan, ECAL tutor. HD Images Brochure with explanations ECAL has turned Spazio Orso 16, a 17th century Milanese palazzo, into a contemporary production site and retail shop inspired by a new vision of digital manufacturing. Lately, most of the product design research into 3D printing has been focusing on new technologies and the shapes they can generate. The idea of this project is to present digital manufacturing as an industrial production tool thanks to a print farm composed of numerous machines printing the same pieces simultaneously. “ECAL Digital Market” offers functional and well-designed everyday objects, created by Master Product Design students as well as by a selection of ECAL-related designers (faculty members and alumni). The project looks into the possibilities of production on demand. It examines the changing environment of manufacturing processes, it emphasizes how fast and transparent today s design industry could become, and experiments with new design details that are too intricate to achieve with traditional manufacturing techniques. Finally, “ECAL Digital Market” highlights the role of the designer in this new production cycle. Thanks to the 3D printers and know-how provided by Formlabs, a large variety of objects such as combs, tape dispensers, mechanical pencils, shoehorns, coat hooks, scissors, spinning tops, shelves and many more are produced and sold on site by the students. The digital files of the objects can also be purchased online: www.ecal-digital-market.ch Press preview Monday 16 April, 4 pm – 6 pm Opening hours Tuesday 17 April – Saturday 21 April, 11 am – 8 pm Sunday 22 April, 11 am – 4 pm Spazio Orso 16 Via dell Orso 16 20121 Milano

Mise en Espace This semester, ECAL had the opportunity to welcome the Swiss artist Anja Schori for a one-week workshop. The students developed a project that interacts with the school space, exploring the issue of the spatialization of photography. Their work studies and analyses the way in which photography is transformed and adopts an installative, even sculptural, character. By using architecture, infrastructure, objects, materials, light, etc., students transform the 2D image into a three-dimensional subject related to its exhibition space. The final result does not show images on the wall, but images that have gone through a transformation process.

ECAL x MacGuffin,02–26.05.2019,Arles + Istanbul Biennial Design "A School of Schools: Design as Learning" is a multi-platform knowledge-based exhibition that uses, tests, and revises a variety of educational strategies UPDATE: "A School of Schools: Design as Learning" is a multi-platform knowledge-based exhibition that uses, tests, and revises a variety of educational strategies. Curated by Jan Boelen — co-founding artistic director of the research program Atelier Luma — with Vera Sacchetti and Nadine Botha for the 4th Istanbul Design Biennial, organised by the Istanbul Foundation for Cultureand Arts, it presents the work of over 90 artists and designers from around the world. Among these, ECAL presents "ECAL x MacGuffin (read below). A School of Schools is presented at Luma Arles as part of the Guest Program of Luma Days #3,a yearly forum of art and ideas, which takes place in Arles from May 22to 25, 2019, and presents public events, conferences, professional workshops, displays and art installations. This year, the topic of the forum is: “TOGETHER, a declaration of inter- dependence”. From 02/05/2019 to 26/05/2019 Parc des Ateliers, 45 chemin des Minimes, 13200 Arles, France www.luma-arles.org/fr/articles/school-of-schools Can a magazine be a design school? Or a design school a magazine? This autumn, MacGuffin and Swiss art and design school ECAL present the results of their collaboration during the 4th Istanbul Design Biennial, which is all about design as learning, and learning as design. The exhibition explores the ways in which the two can enrich the other. Last autumn, Dutch product designer Chris Kabel tutored Bachelor Industrial Design students at ECAL in collaboration with design magazine MacGuffin. The students used the magazine s editorial model as a methodology to study the use of everyday things and to design objects derived from them. They modelled their approach on the way the magazine themes its issues, and chose MacGuffins like The Roof, The Shade, The Wheel, The Ruler, The Lock and The Socle as the focus of their investigations. Their research resulted in a range of observational studies, contextual reportages and visual essays on the materiality of the objects, to be used as a basis for designing new objects. The outcome is an exciting collection of narratives and objects that explore The Life of Things, presented in the form of a 3D magazine. From Umbrella Stories and Wheel Stoppers to Real-Life Rulers and a platform for the Bottom of Things. 22 September – 4 November 2018.

"U-Joints" exhibition,01–29.05.2019,Gallery l elac Curated by Andrea Caputo and Anniina Koivu, the "U-Joints" exhibition features the first chapter of an ongoing research initiated on the occasion of the Milan Design Week 2018. A large selection of nails, screws, rivets, bolts and nuts is shown alongside products created by international designers and a new taxonomy of basic fasteners, graphically developed by Graphic Thought Facility. Opening reception 1.05.2019, 18 h – 20 h Dates 2.05.2019 – 29.05.2019 Wednesday – Friday 13 h – 17 h Galerie l elac 5, avenue du Temple CH-1020 Renens IMAGES HD U-Joints is a research project led by Andrea Caputo and Anniina Koivu, as well as a group exhibition that explores the idea of connections in design.Initiated on the occasion of the Milan Design Week 2018, the first U-Joints exhibition was an eclectic introduction to the topic of connections. Taking a look at the multifaceted world of joints, curators Andrea Caputo and Anniina Koivu broke joints open, organised them by material and production processes, reassembled them into prototypes, and used them in real-world applications. For eight days, U-Joints brought together 919 pieces – from the most common joints to design s most innovative ones, as well as those that have had the greatest influence on contemporary design. This captivating introduction launched the U-Joints research project, which is now in the process of investigating different kinds of connections even more deeply. Ultimately, the research project s findings will be published in a large volume that examines joinery in furniture and product design. U-Joints takes a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach. Featuring technical information about joinery as well as stories and commentaries, U-Joints looks at human history through its details, and invites us to see our built environment in whole new ways. The ongoing U-Joints research is accompanied by a series of exhibitions. Each show reads like a chapter of the future book. The first chapter in this series is the current U-Joints exhibition at Galerie l elac at ECAL/University of Art & Design Lausanne. Dedicated to very basic fasteners, the exhibition features a large selection of nails, screws, rivets, bolts and nuts, alongside products created by 20 international designers and a new taxonomy diagram created just for U-Joints. Andrea Caputo says: “Within the world of ‘connections we imagine including any field of investigation, from architecture to product design to fashion. It is an extremely scalable concept, and we aim to investigate not only the fundamental constructive principles but also to conduct methodological analysis. The manufacture of the joint can coincide with an industrial, artisanal or extremely extemporaneous and experimental process.” Anniina Koivu says: “Designers appropriate standard connectors; they assemble and personalise them. Sometimes, they invent new joinery from scratch. Always, they use joints to create unique objects. But because a joint is often invisible, hidden elegantly inside an object, it can pass by unnoticed. U-Joints seeks to change this.” The Taxonomy of Joints Taxonomy is the science of describing, identifying, naming and classifying organisms. The Taxonomy of Joints traces the macrocosm of joinery in furniture and product design today. Starting from the most common production techniques, the structure creates a genealogical tree that is divided into four families, twenty subfamilies and a still-to-be-defined number of individual joints. The taxonomy exhibited here looks at basic fasteners: nails, screws, rivets, bolts and nuts, in 192 of their most common examples. Much like that of an organism, The Taxonomy of Joints can grow or change its form: it is a work in progress. The taxonomy on display was graphically developed by British studio Graphic Thought Facility.

ECAL Milano 2019: Sound & Vision,09–14.04.2019,Spazio Orso 16, Milano On the occasion of the “Sound & Vision” exhibition, ECAL and the design research centre EPFL+ECAL Lab awaken your senses through a range of immersive experiences, from surprising ringing bells to audiovisual music recordings. ECAL showcases “Ring my Bell”, an offbeat collection of interactive doorbells, while the EPFL+ECAL Lab unleashes the potential of Virtual Reality with “Hands on Vision”. Ring my Bell www.ecal-ringmybell.ch HD Images Brochure with explanations Video on vimeo DONG! TRRRRRR! Or maybe even GLING! Or BLING!, MHHHH! And sometimes even BRAOUM! ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne presents an offbeat collection of interactive doorbells developed by first-year Bachelor Industrial Design students, under the joint guidance of Stéphane Halmaï-Voisard, Head of Bachelor Industrial Design, and Mathieu Rivier, a Bachelor Media & Interaction Design graduate. This project is part of the “Sound & Vision” exhibition, shown for the first time, in collaboration with EPFL+ECAL Lab, at the 2019 Milan International Furniture Fair. Sound and object design are two notions that industrial designers rarely have the opportunity to combine. Nevertheless, most everyday objects potentially produce sounds. Just pull up a chair, open or close a drawer or even flip a switch and you will create sound. What do all these actions have in common? Movement, friction and interaction which draw on the basic laws of physics to create tones. With this in mind, the students have offered a fresh and original take on an everyday object, one that is unremarkable yet never silent—the doorbell. They have designed a range of mechanical and electrical doorbells that offer a unique, sometimes even thunderous, sound experience. Well-known chimes step aside and are replaced by a curious metallophone triggered by a punch card reminiscent of traditional mechanical music boxes. The former door knocker is now amplified by a vibrant dong! The familiar buzzer has been replaced by an energetic drum roll. The everyday doorbell has been replaced by a curious device that makes a sound like thunder. At last, where you might expect a ding-dong, there is now a stertorous mooing mhhhh! These are just some of the contraptions displayed. Come in and ring! Hands on Vision In the “Sound & Vision” exhibition, the EPFL+ECAL Lab takes you to others worlds with “Hands on Vision”. The immersion turns into a sensory, social and nomadic experience. The design research shapes a new future for immersion and mobility. Six installations demonstrate how objects bring new life to virtual content, – in the company of celebrities such as singer, Nina Simone, and designer, Roger Tallon.

Figure emblématique du nouveau cinéma allemand d après-guerre, il a réalisé quelque 70 films. Evoluant librement entre les formes et procédés, la fiction et le documentaire, cinéaste à l approche autant philosophique que physique, Herzog aspire sans relâche à «marcher jusqu au bout du monde» («Gasherbrum, la montagne lumineuse»). Tantôt omniprésent, tantôt cédant la place aux autres, entre héroïsme et expérience des limites («Herakles», son premier court métrage en 1962, ou «La Grande extase du sculpteur sur bois Steiner»), mégalomanie («Aguirre, la colère de Dieu» ou «Cobra Verde», deux des cinq films tournés avec l acteur Klaus Kinski), un certain goût pour la folie et l absurde, le cinéaste explore et arpente les êtres et les lieux, non sans humour ou (auto)dérision («Encounters at the End of the World»). Auteur de plus de douze ouvrages en prose, il a tourné notamment avec Isabelle Adjani, Nicolas Cage, Christian Bale ou Nicole Kidman et remporté le Prix de la mise en scène en 1982, au Festival de Cannes, pour son chef d œuvre «Fitzcarraldo». Texte de Emilie Bujès, directrice artistique de Visions du Réel

ECAL & EXECAL Residences at La Becque,20.03.2019,La Becque, La Tour-de-Peilz UPDATE (20.03.19) EXECAL Residence at La Becque – Announcement of the laureates. UPDATE (20.03.19) EXECAL Residence at La Becque – Announcement of the laureates ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne is delighted to announce the laureates of the first EXECAL Residences at La Becque I Artists Residency. This initiative, part of the partnership that binds the two institutions, aims at fostering research projects and promoting excellence in art and design education. Each will be granted with a month-long residency program, between July and September 2019, with the objective to develop a project connected to their practices but also to the thematic focus of La Becque, the exploration of the intersection of nature and technology. Therefore, the jury composed of Catherine Othenin-Girard (President, EXECAL –Association des anciens étudiants et des amis de l ECAL), Luc Meier (Director, La Becque) and Alexis Georgacopoulos (Director, ECAL) selected: Aladin Borioli (BA Photography) Since 2014, Aladin Borioli has pursued his DYI research project "Apian", looking at the links between honeybees and humans, and at how both beings mould each other. Being drawn closer to the humanities, Aladin graduated in 2018 with an MA in Visual and Media Anthropology at the Freie Universität Berlin. "Apian" has been then presented in artistic contexts as well as in anthropological forms. Pauline Lemberger & Iris Andreadis (BA Industrial Design) In 2015, Pauline Lemberger co-founded “Bouchée Double”, in Brussels, a studio where she explores the culinary world at the intersection of scenography, photography, product design and illustration. She investigates cuisine through a global approach, enhanced during residencies in Japan and Mexico but also through the conceptualization of pop-up restaurants. For her part, Iris Andreadis is currently studying architecture in Paris. At the heart of her practice lays her deep fascination for building processes and structures, as well as for smart objects and their economy of means, all of which she had the chance to observe during stays in Greece and Hong Kong. Thomas Grogan (BA Industrial Design) With a background in industrial and speculative design, Thomas Grogan, based in London, has developed an artistic practice that investigates current and future social issues around emerging technologies through various artistic outputs like sculpture, installation, animation and digital platform. His work uses a visual language that is strongly influenced by corporate branding, manufacturing and product hacking.

ECAL presents Loucia Carlier à Artgenève,31.01–03.02.2019,Palexpo, Geneva From 31 January to 3 February at artgenève, ECAL presents an exhibition and a magazine cofounded by Loucia Carlier, a graduate of the Bachelor (2015) and Master (2017) Fine Arts programmes. “This piece of wall is invisible, if one ignores the large fresco that takes place there. A large quantity of images and symbols are penciled, printed and embossed in it. They crossover each other, like in a medieval version of the library in Interstellar, where references to SF, since its inception, encounter various folklore traditions. The rust-colored ship, a vessel, a spacecraft, floats in the middle of the Magonia, like a suffering craft that has become a weird receptacle for phantasmagorical journeys. In the smaller formats, living rooms elements stand out, deserted by their tenants. Absurdly apocalyptic visions emerge as a backdrop.” Klima is a print magazine which gives a voice to creative, singular and conscious individuals by relating art, activism and academia.

Neurosurgeons learn how to measure the pres-sure of a robotic drill on eggshells.‘ We collaborated with The Gourmand, London based magazine initiated by art director David Lane.

Ring My Bell DONG! TRRRRRR! Or maybe even GLING! Or BLING!, MHHHH! And sometimes even BRAOUM! ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne presents an offbeat collection of interactive doorbells developed by first-year Bachelor Industrial Design students, under the joint guidance of Stéphane Halmaï-Voisard, Head of Bachelor Industrial Design, and Mathieu Rivier, a Bachelor Media & Interaction Design graduate. Sound and object design are two notions that industrial designers rarely have the opportunity to associate. However, most common objects potentially produce sounds. All you have to do is pull a chair, open and close a drawer or press a switch to generate sound. Common factors: movement, friction and interaction, which allow basic physics processes to create tones. In this perspective, the students offered a fresh and original look at an ordinary object, often invisible, but never discreet: the doorbell. Whether mechanical or electrical, the bells they have invented reveal a unique, sometimes even thundering, sound experience. Here, the classic carillon gives way to a curious metallophone powered by a perforated card reminiscent of traditional mechanical music boxes. The old door knocker is exchanged for a vibrating dong! The familiar buzzer is replaced by an efficient drum roll. The usual bell replaces a strange device that makes a great sound. Finally, the usual ding-dong is swapped for a resounding mhhhhh ! dear to the bovine race, to name but a few of the devices presented. Come in and ring the bell! www.ecal-ringmybell.ch

Workshop Renate Buser For a week, the Swiss artist Renate Buser led a workshop with students in first year Bachelor Photography. The ECAL building, a former factory converted into an art school in 2006 by architect Bernhard Tschumi, was the starting point for their photographic explorations. The rules of the game: two black and white films per student and darkroom prints that helped define the initial framework. By taking advantage of the constraints, the varied results illustrate the creativity of the students who experiment with options in shooting, drawing and installation.

Workshop Antony Cairns For one week Ecals bachelor students had the chance to work with photographer and artist Antony Cairns. The workshops aim was to investigate a variety of processes within the history of photography. Since the invention of the medium, photography has shared a close relationship with technology. Students had the chance to explore a range of forgotten techniques and machines to create artworks around the theme of time while researching its connection to other art pieces, films, books, and images that shared the same theme. Cairns practice has been hugely inspired by cyberpunk science fiction and Futurology. These subject matters led him to explore new ways to interpret the photographic medium.

Garage At the edge of a rail traffic, in an abandoned garage four people of different backgrounds live in a perfect harmony. Fiction / 20 min Synopsis Milda is a young lituanian dancer. She lives in a garage with three roommates. Even though they all have different backgrounds, it seems like they really found each other well and live in a perfect harmony. One night, some freaking noises wake them up : constructions works have started on the railway, just next to them. Those sounds announce the very near demolition of their home. From then, Milda, Alan, Nadine and Selena try to forget that their life togeter is about to end. Comment The film Garage, by Lorraine, and edited by Brandon Beytrison, seems to me to be emblematic of what the journey of an edit is. The first cut was far from the final film... Out of fear of boring the spectator, of assuming her scenario, Lorraine had artificially stretched the story and, in doing so, killed the very idea of her film! Dryness of the scenes, imbalance between the characters, mechanical rhythm, etc. Lorraine couldn t see her dailies anymore and Brandon was limited to pacing, for lack of direction. So we went back to the dailies to find Lorraine s original intentions, and they were there! It was a matter of finding the heart of the scenes, of redeploying them around the details that Lorraine had so meticulously put in place during the shooting and of giving back its soul to the film. Brandon then became a real force of proposal! The rest is up to them, and from the second cut, the film was there, obvious, in place. From that moment on, their collaboration was able to work fully to achieve the film you are about to see! Fabrice Rouaud / Editor

Année Propédeutique et Centre de formation BCV/BCL ECAL/Année Propédeutique et Centre de formation BCV/BCL – une 15 ème exposition qui marque une collaboration de longue date La collaboration entre l écal et le Centre de formation de la BCV et des Banques Cantonales Latines (BCL) remonte à plus de 25 ans et cette année nous avons le plaisir d organiser la 15 ème exposition dans le cadre de notre partenariat. Pour le Centre de Formation BCV/BCL qui, dans son secteur d activité, forme en permanence une centaine de jeunes gens aux métiers de la banque, c est toujours un plaisir de pouvoir offrir une plate-forme visible à un groupe d étudiants de l écal. Les œuvres de cette nouvelle exposition resteront accrochées dans les couloirs et salons du Centre de formation BCV/BCL durant 3 à 4 ans, à la vue et au passage de milliers de collaborateurs des banques cantonales de Suisse romande qui régulièrement viennent en formation dans ces locaux. Une belle occasion pour eux d admirer ces travaux qui révèlent le talent très prometteur dont font déjà preuve les jeunes étudiants de l Année Propédeutique de l écal. L époque actuelle est aussi à la compétition et qui dit compétition dit récompenses aux lauréats. Trois étudiants, dont les œuvres ont été sélectionnées par un jury regroupant des représentants de l écal et de la BCV, ont reçu un prix en espèces. Dans ce concours, il y a donc des étudiants primés, mais en fait tous en sont ressortis grandis. En effet, au travers de cet exercice, chacun aura pu tirer des enseignements et enrichir, par cette expérience supplémentaire, son bagage de compétences. En cela, tous auront été gagnants. Cette collaboration entre le Centre de formation BCV/BCL et l écal, même si elle est importante, n est pas exclusive dans le rôle que la BCV accorde au soutien de l art contemporain. En effet, la collection d art BCV compte plus de 2000 œuvres produites par des artistes vivant, ayant vécu ou travaillant dans le canton de Vaud. Depuis plus de quarante ans, elle s est enrichie chaque année de nouvelles acquisitions dont certaines ont été réalisées par d anciens étudiants de l écal. Axée sur la période contemporaine, sa collection d art permet à la BCV de soutenir la création locale. Nous sommes très reconnaissants envers les professeurs de l écal qui se sont investis auprès de leurs étudiants afin que cette nouvelle exposition puisse avoir lieu. Nos plus sincères remerciements vont également à son Directeur, Monsieur Alexis Georgacopoulos, pour nous avoir ouvert ses portes, ainsi qu à Madame Catherine Othenin-Girard, historienne de l art et conservatrice de la collection d art BCV, pour son soutien et sa présence dans l organisation.

Image Vevey × Confrérie des Vignerons From Lavaux to the Chablais region of Vaud, the world of wine was reinterpreted for a semester by students in their 2nd year of the Bachelor of Photography programme at ECAL/Ecole cantonale d art de Lausanne, in collaboration with the Confrérie des Vignerons. Under the guidance of Jonas Marguet, photographer and teacher, the students used clues gathered in the field from the winegrowers. Selected and presented as part of the Festival Images Vevey, Elisa Ribeiro s Nuisibles series sheds light on an unexpected aspect of winegrowing. She paints a gallery of portraits of insects that ravage vines, using a scanning electron microscope. By reappropriating a scientific tool for artistic purposes, she reveals the extraordinary, invisible to the naked eye. This work questions the very foundations of the photographic image, the process of taking the picture being carried out here by means of a beam of electrons. These tiny pests appear like giant monsters, presented in large light boxes that evoke the illumination of microscopic observation.

Summer University Tehran Some thoughts and starting points for an art event about Ta ârof to be held at Bon Gah Thinking the interrelations within the art world, taking as a starting point an Iranian artist run space inviting a visiting Swiss art school wishing to understand (or underscore…) if and how Ta ârof may be of any help to try to build a temporary community, and make art. Drawing on some recent UN General Assembly speeches, that Trick or Treat is the ultimate geopolitical strategy tool, where USA is working towards a « more just and peaceful future ». Assuming that Switzerland is a neutral country and thereafter represents consular and diplomatic interests of USA in Iran. Taking in consideration that the art community doesn t differ from society in general: it is just a reductio ad absurdum. Artists tend to recognize each other globally, assuming some kind of moral superiority towards the rest of society, or at least pretending to understand the complex tissues of relationships and power relations that makes (and destroys) a community. But fundamentally there is almost no solidarity within the artists. Ta ârof continually questions hierarchy, be it the artist towards other artists, the artist towards the spectator and so on. Ta ârof plays the game of an ideal society, like art, where the artist is benevolent and humble towards the spectator. Ta ârof shows that every word always tends to have a hidden desire.
