Systems

von Jeanne van Heeswijk

Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Systems gives an overview of Jeanne van Heeswijk’s socially engaged artistic practice, and at the same time presents models for the design of social spaces as well as directions for the analysis of their structures. The first part is dedicated to games people play, as rehearsals of social interactions. The second part investigates the rooms people inhabit, i.e. the urban structures of social cohabitation, which are the external reference points of social conditioning, and the third part deals with the communities people create as structures of individual, artistic positioning. The works, spaces and strategies presented are documented through rules and drawings, texts and photographs. Here too, Van Heeswijk offers space for alternatives, as anecdotal remarks and comments by the participants create a broad collage of possibilities, producing insights into a wide-ranging field of experiment. With texts by Carlos Basualdo, Marjolein Schaap and Axel Lapp. Design by Anja Lutz.
