Pressemeddelelse, april 2022

f.eks. inviterer til Insider’s Guide - Speculative Wayfinding in Aalborg af Anthony Carfello (US).

Som en del af en flere ugers geografisk funderet performance anvender projektet forskellige former for navigation og mobilitet til at lede os gennem en alternativ rute pĂ„ tvĂŠrs af Aalborg. Byen bliver her til et casestudie, hvor elementer fra det enogtyvende Ă„rhundredes “genoplivede by” gennem Insider’s Guide isoleres og sammenstilles for at identificere mulige konflikter og uoverensstemmelser. Ved at trĂŠkke pĂ„ de komparative metoder, Carfellos har erfaring med fra sin pĂŠdagogiske praksis i Los Angeles, aktiverer projektet en skiftende tilgang til byen, med udgangspunkt i formater sĂ„som turist rejseplaner, Google Maps og andet brugergenereret indhold. MĂ„let er en gentĂŠnkning af det bebyggede miljĂž og at skabe en ny erfaringsbaseret “grammatik” for byen, der beror sig pĂ„ en sporing af forskellige geografiske typologier – fra det banale til det trendy, det kollektive til det eksklusive.

Mens de offentlige events vil vĂŠre forankret i Aalborgs “Mini-Manhattan” boligomrĂ„de, havnefronten ved Streetfood KĂžkkenfabrikken, lokale manifesteringer af global franchise virksomheder, museer ved fjorden mfl., er dette projekt ikke et bidrag til regionens turismeindustri. Insider’s Guide er et offentligt kunstvĂŠrk, der benytter konventionelle virkemidler i introduktionen af steder – rundvisninger, kort, “must-see” lister og guidebĂžger – til at teste og advokere for en mulig opdatering til den historiske proces med en kritisk og politisk tilgang til byen pĂ„ samme mĂ„de som Situationisternes dĂ©rive. Carfello skaber en optegnelse af Aalborg, der gennem projektet gĂžres tilgĂŠngeligt til brug hvor som helst.

Anthony Carfello har base i det sydlige Californien, hvor han arbejder med undersĂžgelser af, hvordan bygninger, samfund og steder opleves og kontrolleres. Hans praksis har siden 2007 inkorporeret reklamer, arkitektur, kritisk geografi, ejendomsret, ejendomsmarkedet og turisme gennem skriftlige, redaktionelle og kunstneriske bidrag, bĂ„de i og udenfor de institutionelle rammer. Carfello underviser som skriveinstruktĂžr for Temple Universitys Los Angeles-program og er redaktĂžr for tidsskriftet Georgia.
