ARK Dresden: Ark for Underestimated Knowledge

Within the framework of Moving Borders

ARK Dresden: Ark for Underestimated Knowledge
A project by Quarantine (GB), Katja Heiser (DE) and Mustafa Hasan (SY/DE)

Seven European production houses, festivals and public institutions in Athens, Dresden, Mülheim an der Ruhr, Porto, Strasbourg, Utrecht and Warsaw started the project “Moving Borders” together two years ago: Each partner developed a version of the artistic concept “ARK” by the British collective Quarantine in its own city – adapted to the local conditions and together with the local people.

We invite you to “ARK Dresden – Ark for Underestimated Knowledge”: a place for encounters, exchange and interesting insights is being created on the banks of the Elbe and on the personal ferry “Johanna”. Dresden citizens and local artists will share, present and save individual knowledge, skills and experiences that should not be lost over time and due to social change. Come and save with us!

ARK Dresden takes place as part 2 of the festival “Stadt.Raum.Fluss. Contemporary Positions on the City” by HELLERAU – European Centre for the Arts.

Venue:
Elbufer Dresden near the Johanna ferry dock Accessible via Diakonissenweg/Holzhofgasse, EV 11, 41 (Diakonissenkrankenhaus).

Free admission
