WORLD

In (DAI, 2013) alumna Maja Hodošček's video installation Too Simple and Too Easy, the artist delves deep into horizontal learning, more specifically, learning of a foreign language. A group of high school students works together to translate a cut from the film Ici et ailleurs (Here and Elsewhere) by Jean-Luc Godard and Anne-Marie Miéville, which juxtaposes a French family in front of a TV set with a community of Palestinian revolutionaries, and questions in terms of essence the status of an image that relays a remote social reality. Maja's eponymous solo exhibition Too Simple and Too Easy is part of the international project Borderlines and can be visited at KGLU in Slovenia.

DAI warmly congratulates Bonaventure Soh Bejeng Ndikung, artistic director of sonsbeek20-24 and founding director of SAVVY contemporary ( for 2020-2021 we are once again proudly teaming up with both institutions): this month, October 2020, Bonaventure was awarded the Order of Merit of Berlin. We urge you to read his recent text, published in Frieze series The Argument, on why Germany’s struggle against imperialism Is far from over. "As we nurture memories past and cultivate those yet to come, we must be on our toes and be prepared to run like the wind."

TOK curators Anna Bitkina (DAI, 2018) and Maria Veits take the High North and the Arctic, an economically and ecologically vulnerable, but crucial for the planetary balance region, as the point of departure for the Symposium "Interdependency as a Condition", which will focus on the idea of interdependency. Among the speakers is Aslak Aamot Kjærulff ( DAI COOP tutor 2017-2020).

When a symposium becomes a series — updates on Mythologies/Methodologies. Our esteemed partner If I Can't Dance I Don't Want To Be Part Of Your Revolution shares that in response to the rapidly rising COVID numbers in Amsterdam, the Mythologies/Methodologies one-day symposium has transformed into a four-part live-stream series, which unfolds over a month of Saturday afternoons from 16.00-18.30hr through October and November. This new configuration offers each presentation as a weekly instalment. With Giulia Damiani, Genevieve Hyacinthe, Chandra Frank, Ros Murray and Gloria Wekker.
