Them

Jeg kom til at tænke på et værk: 'Them' (2007) af Artur Zmijewski, som jeg læste om i Sum #2.

Them documents a social experiment devised by Zmijewski in which representatives from conflicting social groups (conservatives, patriotic Catholics, nationalist Polish youth, leftist socialists, democrats and freedom fighters) are brought together through a series of workshops. Each group is asked to construct a symbolic centre and then to comment and react to the others. Forcing participants to interact: to negotiate, to fight, or to withdraw. (Citat: herfra)
