SUMMER CAMP CARBONART'2002
"Passage Zone"

On the period of August 3-12, 2002 Center for Contemporary 
Art, Chisinau KSAK, in collaboration with Art East Alliance, Chisinau 
ArtEastA is planning to organize the 7-th edition of the Camp of Creation CarbonArt'2002.

Location: The Carbonart project will take place near the Tipova 
village (100 km north of Chisinau), Rep of Moldova, on a site adjacent to the monastery

Curator: Igor Scerbina 

Project Topic:
Anomalous zone. "Non-civilized space." Stalking.
Ancient legends and contemporary art.

Project concept:
Interpenetration of spatial-temporal structures in an anomalous 
zone from the perspective of contemporary art.
Mutual influence between artists and "space-environment."

Carbonart participants will develop projects according to a specified 
topic and concept. During Carbonart each participant will carry 
out his/her own project based on materials and methods established 
beforehand. Participants may use only materials found on location 
or prepared beforehand, but which will have to be produced by simple 
"traditional" technologies. This can be wood, stone, clay, natural 
dyes. It is possible to use earth, air, water and fire.
It is completely forbidden to use polymers and any other artificial 
materials. It is possible to use metal, glass  and other "technological" 
materials should there be an artistic necessity for them, but this 
will have to be discussed beforehand.
During the project only former and abandoned monk cells will be 
used for living. A specific atmosphere should be maintained for 
a general "creative" mood; the internal atmosphere of the Tipova 
zone and its relative remoteness from "civilization" are quite congenial 
to this purpose. The adepts of contemporary art will be placed in 
an emphatically non-urban, almost uncivilized milieu, in an anomalous 
zone filled with a primitive, mystic atmosphere.
The absence of electricity, amenities such as central water supply 
and sewerage - these are appropriate conditions for the entire action. 
The complete and "honest" immersion into the Tipova space will grant 
the possibility to feel the specific atmosphere of this zone, to 
establish a link between artists and the Tipova zone,
with its mystic characters, which will give the possibility to establish 
contact with a "different space," to generate new ideas or transform 
already existing ideas so as to channel them into the topic and concept of the project.
