Haunt in Aegean

Nisyros island with its specific geography, geology, history and contemporaneity raises many questions which can be interesting to try to find the answers to together with the big question about the legacy of historical genre of Land Art. For two weeks, a group of artists and curators will focus on how can contemporary art exist in open nature and space, what local context means for it, how much contextual land art is today, how physical and fixed to one place is and how it translates into a documentation or a book, which will not serve as a project documentation, but rather stream of new ideas about position of art in the nature with all the troubles today’s definition of nature brings in.

The project is organized by Are | in association with Sterna Art Project and supported by Prague City Hall and the municipality of the Nisyrians.
