    Totally Motivated - A Socio-Cultural Manoeuver
    Michael Beutler, Gardar Eide Einarsson, Esra Ersen, Matias Faldbakken, Luca Frei, Bernd Krauss, Bjargey Olafsdottir, Sofie Thorsen, Carla Zaccagnini

    15 March – 13 April 2003

    The point of departure for this project was the complex and sometimes trying relationship between the contemporary international acting art world and the local working socio-cultural initiatives. The relationship is loaded with clichés on both sides. Some are supposed to be elitist and decadent, the others pseudo creative and plain. What happens when these borders are being crossed and one area starts to flirt with the other? In this way the theme of production and mediation, through the concept of Kulturladen (culture bazaar), can be tested as a field of action by both the artists, the other contributors and the audience.
