講者：Oliver Klimpel 、Yasmine Ostendorf （本講座將以英文進行）
Oliver Klimpel 與 Yasmine Ostendorf 從不同的立論角度出發，不約而同地在實務上論及藝術化的論述如何在機構的框架之中運作。在這場座談中，他們將從各自的角色深度探討實務經驗中的各層面。
在 Oliver Klimpel 的講題 “Learning from Taipei” 中，他將回顧自身關於藝術機構的研究，以及2016年爲台北當代藝術中心製作的一系列機構傢俱作品 “Form of Assembly” 。他也將展示他如何發展這一套概念性設計，進而將其延伸發展至目前他在奧地利格拉茲美術館的大型創作。
其後，Yasmine Ostendorf 將會談論有關她在荷蘭馬斯垂克的 Jan van Eyck Academy 執行的兩個專案，分別是從事環境藝術研究的Thijsse-Lab以及新成立的 Food-Lab的經驗。

Aspects of Art in and with Institutions
Presentation and Discussion with Oliver Klimpel and Yasmine Ostendorf
Time：2018.04.24 (Tue.) 7 – 9pm.
Venue: Taipei Contemporary Art Center, No. 11, Lane 49, Baoan Street, Taipei (MRT Daqiaotou Station O12)
Despite from different perspectives, the practices both of Oliver Klimpel and Yasmine Ostendorf touch upon the question of artistic discourses within institutional frames. At this evening they will discuss aspects of their work in this regard.
In his presentation “Learning from Taipei” Oliver Klimpel is going to revisit his research into arts institutions and his 2016 institutional furniture project for TCAC, “Form of Assembly”. He will show how he has developed this conceptual interior approach further in his current wide-ranging work for the Kunsthaus Graz, Austria.
This will be followed by an open discussion and observations by Yasmine Ostendorf about her experiences running the Thijsse-Lab for environmental artistic research and the newly founded Food-Lab, both at the Jan van Eyck Academy in Maastricht, Netherlands.
Oliver Klimpel works at the intersection of art and design. Born in East-Germany and living in London for more than 15 years, he relocated to Berlin three years ago. Trained originally as a graphic designer he is now working with art institutions on questions of spatial displays and interiors, and alternative forms of publishing. Educational projects form another important part of his practice. From 2008 to 2015 he was professor at the Academy of Visual Arts Leipzig, Germany.
Yasmine Ostendorf is head of the Thijsse-Lab, a nature-research lab for artist at the Jan van Eyck Academy in Maastricht, Netherlands. After been raised in Amsterdam and working in London she has undertaken extensive research across Asia about art and sustainability that lead her to set up the Green Lab Art Alliance, a network of 35 international cultural organisations that addresses social and environmental responsibilities.
This event will be conducted in English. Special Thanks to Bamboo Curtain Studio.
