The "TWIST - Tuica/Tusovka" project starts from the curatorial research of
Viviana Checchia in the Slovak Republic and Eleonora Farina in Romania.

The material gathered during the curators' respective time in Bratislava and
Bucharest will comprise an 'open office' at golden PARACHUTES for the
duration of the events in Berlin.

In spite of the twenty-odd years since the fall of the Berlin Wall, the
differences between the Romanian and Slovakian countries have been subsumed
under the Eastern European umbrella for many years, a term that mystifies as
much as it reveals. Showing affinities between each context, as well as
contrast and diversity is a fundamental motivation for the project. Berlin
has been chosen as a location for the event because of its role as the
epicentre of Europe's political and geographic struggles in the 20th
century.

The 'open office' is a way for the public to read, watch and deepen their
understanding realities of each country's cultural landscape during a week
of direct interaction with the material. In addition to a  paper, video and
audio archive, experimental video works will be presented at golden
PARACHUTES, including works from the film festival unarte_fest, University
of Fine Arts in Bucharest; Platforma DigiVAF(ex), Academy of Banska
Bystrica; the Faculty of Art's students in Kosice and the internet-based
show Hore Bez.

A rich programme of events will run parallel to the 'open office', which
will include the participation of important representatives of the
contemporary art world in Romania and Slovakia with the aim of establishing
a permanent dialogue between the two. The support of the Library of the
Institute for East European Studies at the Freie Universitaet will enrich
the archive with its own bibliographical materials.

*Viviana Checchia (1982) has devoted herself to a research on the
development of the contemporary art system in Slovakia for two years, thanks
to a grant of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. She is currently
pursuing doctoral studies at the School of Art of Loughborough University
(UK) about the new identity between East and West Europe.*

*Eleonora Farina (1981), after her one-year-long Leonardo da Vinci grant at
MNAC - National Museum of Contemporary Art in Bucharest, is dedicating her
PhD-research to the video art in Romania in the Seventies and Eighties
during the Ceauºescu's dictatorship (Freie Universitaet, Berlin).*
