Please register here for the webinar
The
Summer School of Unlearning is an educational initiative of
beuys on/off (https://beuysonoff.com/free-international-university/education/), led by
Taeyoon Choi, Jung-Yeon Ma and Jaemin Shin, along with
Gulnara Kasmalieva and
Muratbek Djumaliev, Aigerim Kapar, with
15 participating artists from Japan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and South Korea.
The
Summer School of Unlearning is a question about how we learn and what we learn.
Joseph Beuys conceptualized the
Free International University as ‘the plan for society beyond capitalism and communism.’ In a similar manner, the Summer School of Unlearning connects participating artists from East and Central Asia in an environment where they explore the possibility of building friendship despite the distance and cultural differences.
This
graduation ceremony is an open seminar for 15 participating artists to present their results based on their ongoing thought about unlearning. From July to August, the seminars of Summer School of Unlearning were held as a private session, but this final ceremony will be open to the public. In this ceremony, audiences will be able to see pre-recorded videos (with English subtitle) of 15 participating artists via Zoom, and there will be a discussion and Q&A session with participating artists and associates after the video screening. In the pre-recorded video, participating artists spoke their own native language or English, and English subtitles will be provided.
Participating Artists: Malika Umarova, Marat Raymkulov, Nargiza Ryskulova, Talgat Dzhumashev, Dariya Temirkhan, Dana Iskakova, Maya Sagym, Medina Bazargali, Hina Omukai, Saya Kunikiyo, Nozomu Matsuura, Kewserjan Irihama, Sojin Kwak, Yunji Song, Chaejung Shin
