campcamp
“campcamp is built of unpredictable partnerships and spontaneous relations, situations, and communities that evolve when diverse characters are localized on a confined site, existing under real or perceived parameters, articulated, here, in the campground. In response to varieties of niche conditioning, all of which are characterized by transplanting circumscribed routines to extreme environments or situations, a temporal, site specific habitat is formed that is simultaneously exposed while cozy, fleeting while grounded, ritualistic while celebratory, traditional while futuristic. Using these specific standardizations and perceptions of nomadic landing pads, campcamp assembles and erects an ever-changing stability in a fluctuating yet comfortable urban setting.
For the 2011 Transmodern Festival, Marian April Glebes, in collaboration with Fred Scharmen and C. Ryan Patterson, are curating campcamp, an exterior exhibition and interactive multi-disciplinary installation for which no prior survival experience is required for participation. The exhibition will occupy the rear exterior courtyard of The Current Gallery, and potentially the alley adjacent to said courtyard. (See attached plat for reference). campcamp identifies the campground as an organizational and conceptual device, then extends the implications and activities related to camping into foundations for aesthetic and eccentric experimentation. Artists, vendors, and niche lifestyle-crafters are invited to participate in campcamp by responding to categories like the following: setting & landscape, bathhouse, arts & crafts, games & activities, flag pole, ceremonies & rituals, mealtime, the campfire, site markers & field guides”
