Dienstag Abend
is a weekly run evening
initiated by artists Fernando Mesquita and Ludwig Kittinger.
The program follows two basic lines:
One is to offer a showroom based on the principal of carte blanche, the shows are non curated, intending to provoke potentially experimental situations hence being non compulsory in any form.
Solely the artspace itself could set the artistic content;
The second is a random, coincidental selection process of participating artists. Any social situation, an encounter or spontaneous talk is a hub for Dienstag Abend art intervention.
Dienstag Abend is an adaptable framework based on direct, quick reaction, a sort of ad hoc platform for accepting different artistic languages. It shows current tendencies on the local art scene, but easily opens for passing by foreign artists. Due to its transformative character, the outcome of Dienstag Abend is unpredictable, intentionally arbitrary.
DIENSTAG ABEND PROJECT
dienstag abend is an open platform for direct artistic intervention, untouched of any conceptual, ideological or formal restraints.
In the best manner of “artists run spaces” in opposition to over-administrated, often rigid framework of the “art establishment” with the institution of curator not as a mediator (between art and public) but as (almost autoritarian) creator of meanings, trendsetter and translator, Tuesday Evening presents an open space for various artists expressions. It enables direct relation between artist/ art work and the audience..
