Șelari 13, Bucharest, Romania
The project is based on the complementary approaches of curator Cristina Bogdan, who since 2014 leads ODD, and Mihnea Mihalache-Fiastru, author of the web series of docu-fiction and urban storytelling Şuşanele. Together, they want to lay the foundations of artistic and educational initiatives outside the limited space of the gallery through which to test live, in urban residential areas, ideas and formats that we have experimented with in our artistic approach.
Screening of the film Did You Used to be R.D. Laing ? The life and philosophy of psychiatrist Dr R.D. Laing, followed by a debate led by Cristina Bogdan.
Talk by Vlad Morariu on R.D. Laing’s philosophical-phenomenological influences, his clinical-political practice, and his collaboration with experimental film maker Peter Robinson. This will be followed by a screening of Asylum(1972, dir. Peter Robinson).
Jakob Jakobsen will talk about self-organised education in the past and in the present, focusing on the London Anti-University (1968) & the Copenhagen Free University (2001-2007).
The display articulated at ODD aims to construct a communicative situation, which is already entangled, disjunctive, double-bound, and in an impasse: in other words, problematic.
