In an in-depth interview, Britta Peters talks to author and art critic Maja Ćirić about her work as Artistic Director of Urbane Künste Ruhr.
She explains her perspective on public art in the Ruhr area and elsewhere, and describes how questions of participation, co-production and dialogue are constantly being renegotiated in her projects.
The full interview is now available online at MOST Magazine:
The Grand Snail Tour will be accompanied by literary, photographic and illustrative artists, who will collect impressions and reflections from the same city at the same time as the Trailer is there and put them into visual or literary form. The result is a paratext on the three-year tour, a travel chronicle in the form of a kaleidoscope of stories, connections and snapshots in the 53 cities of the region, revealing the simultaneities and non-simultaneities of the Grand Snail Tour.
