STUDIOvisits´ vehicles are concepts, texts, objects, ideas, processes moving/migrating/translating around in reciprocal directions. STUDIOvisits´ itineraries are translocal. STUDIOvisits´ desire is to transfer, postpone and prolongue the processes of reflection upon concepts and objects that surround and construct the so-called „artwork“. STUDIOvisits is a thought- and praxis-based artistic enterprise that aims to overcome the reduction of the „artwork“ to a mere commodity that follows the laws of the (art)market.  

STUDIOvisits  is a project of encounters taken in random intervals between artists, theorists, musicians, architects and the general public. STUDIOvisits ´ starting point is the desire to find new formats that will communicate both the process and the outcome of artistic concepts. The departure area of STUDIOvisits is the artist’s work space. STUDIOvisits intents to elaborate through encounters a network of artists, theorists, musicians, architects and the general public that will deal with the spatio-temporal discourses and processes of the artistic work within our sociopolitical present. Thus, the work of art becomes a common topos for discursive and process-based exchange. These encounters might take the form of a one-to-one discussion, a three-day presentation/exhibition, a workshop, a collaborative piece of art, a book, an open discussion… STUDIOvisits  poses the question of whether it is possible for artists to re/generate through collaboration and exchange the sociopolitical and aesthetic value of their work. STUDIOvisits  aims to function as an OPEN SOURCE PROJECT in analogue space and time. Therefore it is open to ideas and concepts for encounters. STUDIOvisits is a project initiated by Vassiliea Stylianidou | www.stylianidou.com | mail@stylianidou.com. Follow us on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/STUDIOvisits/428461600503120

STUDIOvisits invites 27 artists, theorists, poets and musicians to respond to the notions of bond, promise, debt, temporariness and emergency and their interconnection to the artwork and the art-market.  “HAPPY NEW BONDS#1“ opens up a series of transactions without the intervention of money. What kind of values, more or less termporary, are at stake here? The booth of STUDIOvisits in „Platform Project@Art-Athina” will be transformed to a mise-en-scène for text, sound, voices, air and fog inviting the visitors to reflect upon and give their points of view around notions such as the production of value, temporariness AND EMERGENCY.
