Joanna Warsza (Varsovia)
Stadionul X- locul care n-a existat. Proiecte de arta participativa
in stadionul parasit al Varsoviei | Stadium X – place that
wasn’t participation art projects in the derelict Stadium
in Warsaw
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Aflat in centrul
Varsoviei, Stadionul X este o ruina contemporana. Ridicat din
ceea ce a ramas dupa distrugerea Varsoviei dupa cel de-al doilea
razboi mondial, stadionul urma sa marcheze inceputul epocii Stalin.
In anii 80 acesta isi pierde functia de baza sportiva pentru a
fi ulterior «resuscitat» de comerciantii vietnamezi
si rusi – pionierii capitalismului - care si-au amplasat
paturile lor de campanie cu produsele lor creand cea mai mare
piata de bunuri din Europa Centrala, intitulata Jarmark Europa.
Ruina stadionului si piata sunt astazi singurul loc «in
afara oricarei logici» din capitala poloneza. Presentarea
Joannei Warsza se va opri asupra a trei proiecte ce reflecta caracterul
heterotopic si ireal al locului care - asemeni unui cimitir, gradina
sau parc – este in acelasi timp fantastic si real, oglindind
virtutile si viciile unei societati in contructie. Proiectele
prezentate vor fi «Boniek!» – un remake al meciului
Polania-Belgia al artistului elvetian Massimo Furlan prezentat
de cunoscutul comentator sportiv Tomasz Zimoch; «Radio Stadion
Broadcasts» – un radio international difuzat in toate
limbile pe parcursul unui weekend si «Calatorie in Asia»
– tur audio in sectorul vietnamez al pietei Jarmark Europa.
Joanna Warsza (n.1976) este performance
curator si artist, coordoneaza Fundatia Laura Palmer. A absolvit
Academia de Teatru Varsovia si Departamentul de Dans al Universitatii
Paris 8. Performantele si actiunile pe care le curateaza si le
pune in scena sunt la limita vietii de zi cu zi, a artei participative
si a teatrului: «Virtual MOMA Varsovia» – tur
intr-o expozitiei invizibila, «Global Kebab Network»
– un show in localul Kebab, Belluard Festival Fribourg,
«Local vision» Banca BW in Kunstlerhaus Stuttgart
sau «Jurnal polonez», Centre Pompidou Paris. Warsza
a coordonat un ciclu de ACTIUNI TR Teatrul din Varsovia, invitand
artisti vizuali sa interactioneze cu zona de teatru: Pawel Althamer,
Rafal Betlejewski, Katarzyna Kozyra.
Fundatia Laura Palmer opereaza la granita
dintre fictiune si realitate. Imprumutand numele personajului,
a carui absenta devine motorul filmului lui David Lynch, colectivul
produce actiuni, situatii, performante, expozitii. Incorporand
viata reala si fictiunea, confruntand experienta si reprezentarea
ei, Fundatia Laura Palmer trateaza curatoriatul ca pe o forma
de arta. Laura Palmer este un label independent creat in 2007

Stadium X, located in the center of Warsaw
is a contemporary ruin. Build from the debris of the destroyed
city after II WW was to be the flagship of the Stalin era. In
the early 1980s, it lost its function as a sports facility to
be later on “resuscitated” by Vietnamese and Russian
traders – the pioneers of capitalism who placed their camp
beds with all sorts of goods creating the biggest market in central
Europe called Jarmark Europa. The ruined Stadium and the market
are today the only “out of logic” place in the capital.
The area is overgrown with wild plants, shops are open here from
3 am to 12 pm, the crowd is communicating in a number of Asian
languages while archeologists patrol the remains searching for
medieval treasures, making the place a Warsaw Berlin wall. The
stadium and the market are to be replaced by a new National Stadium
by the end of 2008. This many-year (absent) presence of the ruin
in the centre of a postcommunist city, the ongoing debate on Poland’s
hosting of Euro 2012, lack of discussion on the architectural
heritage of the postwar era as well as the invisibility of the
Vietnamese minority and a different order of this place brought
about a series of performative events titled “Finissage
of the Stadium X and Jarmark Europa in episodes”.
The presentation will focus on 3 artistic
projects reflecting the heterotopic and unreal character of the
place, which – similarly to a cemetery, a garden or a theme
park – is both fantastic and factual, reflecting the virtues
and vices of the society that gave it shape. Presented projects
will be: Boniek! – a remake of a match Poland-Belgium by
Swiss artist Massimo Furlan commented by famous sport announcer
Tomasz Zimoch; Radio Stadion Broadcasts – international
radio for a weekend in all languages of the market and Trip to
Asia – acoustic walk in the Vietnamese sector of the Jarmark
Europa market.

and its representation, it treats curating as an art form. Laura
