Phase 2: Shanghai
The Asia-Europe Foundation and its partners, Casino Luxembourg - Forum d’art contemporain, the University of Luxembourg and DDA Warehouse (China) will organise the second and final phase of the 7th Asia-Europe Art Camp - Art Workshop for Visual Arts 2009/2010 in Shanghai from 26 August-7 September 2010.
Theme
The theme of the 7th Asia-Europe Art Camp - Art Workshop for Visual Arts 2009/2010 is Moved, Mutated and Disturbed Identities and will challenge the participating Asian and European artists to realities and identities in Luxembourg and China.
Project phases: From Luxembourg to Shanghai
The first phase of the Art Camp brought together 18 Asian and European visual artists in Luxembourg in July 2009. In its second and final phase the project was travel to Shanghai and will conclude with the presentation of artworks at a public exhibition and a showcase at the Luxembourg Pavilion of the Shanghai World Expo 2010. The artistic processes thus take place over a period of 12 months starting in Luxembourg located in the heart of Europe and home to a melting pot of immigrants from different European countries and continuing in Shanghai, the Chinese megapolis which gathers very different people from all over China.
