www – wall window workshop
Dan Perjovschi at Ruhr Triennale 2013
One of the main attractions of this years’ Ruhr Triennale was Dan Perjovschi’s www – wall window workshop. The artist held the workshop in the Bochum Jahrhunderthalle, a famous industrial building from the region, which now houses performative and visual art. Perjovschi’s intervention included works from his personal collection and contextual drawings, as well, about the building and the event itself.
During the first week of the festival, the artist invited everybody, children, teenagers, adults, to continue his drawings with their own ideas, which had a unique visual result: up to the height of a child, the drawings are dense and naïve, at the level of the adults’ height the approach is more organized and serious, while at the higher levels of the walls there is Perjovschi’s ironical and humorous composition. The three weeks of the workshop ended with open discussions with the visitors and workshop participants.
