Netthaus
The front of a classical townhouse in the Friedrichstrasse of
Dusseldorf, one of the access roads to the city, will become the
Netthaus (translated: net house combined with gentle house) during the
exhibition of the artists´ artwork in the gallery kunstWerk that is
established in this house. Netthaus explores the concept of
neighbourhood parting from the relation between social creativity,
collective action, environmental action and artistic practices. First
there is a single impulse Tim EIAG initiates again and again since 1972.
There is a first ribbon that enrols from an plain roll. But then the
ribbon spans and suddenly there are many additional ones which are
arriving from different positions and becoming arranged crossing and
linking. Finally different positions are connected in a big network.
Urban spaces are filled with never-ending quantities of informations.
The
individual tries to endeavour systems and to create an individual
organisation for orientating and positioning oneself. Accompanying with
this reaction is a mental saving of temporary perception concerning
places, situations and individuals. But intellectually and emotionally
nettings of individuals or groups only develop if stereotypic processes
and usually points of view - especially in our globalized and digitalised
worlds of experiences – are becoming perturbed. That very moment of
pausing, focalizing as well as being involved actively or passively
engenders the impulse for mutation. Admitting new experiences gives new
space, impassions and changes realities.
Tim EIAG creates irritation and
by this he provokes the passers-by as well as the acting people to reflect
the action. The project is participatory and invites housemates, gallery
staff and visitors to develop the process. The activities of the involved
parties effecting on the surroundings. Tim EIAG points out the
configuration of common living spaces and the vital necessity of
collective acting as urge of life. Connecting intuitive actions in a
sharing action creates the ideational realization of common wishes and
aims. Combining a shop of high-class products and a gallery with
alternate exhibitions and happenings the kunstWerk provides a forum for
many kinds of artists and all people who are interested in fine arts
experiencing the individual languages of arts meant as impulses for a
public dialogue concerning consciousness and to deepen consequent
impressions and realisations.
