This Workshop is an intense two-week studio session. Date: February 10-24, 2012.
Venue: Arts Village in Ghana. The workshop is designed to bring together creative persons from different nations and cultures such as artists, architects and engineers to create works by use of materials from the environment. The participants will live and work together in an Arts Village in a rural township for knowledge sharing and cross-fertilization of skills over a two-week period.
By land art (or earthworks, environmental art) we imply: (1) Works created with materials from the environment involving air, water, earth, stone, and wood, or (2) Site-specific installation (with natural or industrial materials) within a landscape to create an aesthetic experience. The theme is open; but permanency of work is encouraged, ephemeral would be only if it is the most appropriate means to communicating the idea. The realized work may become a part of the Arts Village or sited in a public space in a nearby village. The workshop culminates in a Community Day, an open studio exhibition that will be free and open to the general public. Organizers will provide accommodation and food.
