4TH STATE OF WATER: FROM MICRO TO MACRO

02 MARCH 2012
COCA IN TORUN, POLAND

Victoria Vesna’s artistic work as well
as her theoretical background were
motivations to invite her to curate a
project that will bring to the Centre
of Contemporary Art in Torun some of
the most advanced and experimental
artistic practices.

This project was conceived to be first
and foremost an exciting collaborative
experience, based on the exchange
and dialogue through the creation of
a social network and meta-interface
that will involve artists, scientists,
curators and theoreticians, journalists
and other interested intellectuals.
It was developed around the theme of
water—understood not only through the
multiplicity of its symbolical and
metaphorical meanings, but also as one
of the life and energy sources which
today demands a serious political and
social discussion.

Launched via a web platform, the
exhibition included the contributions
of Linda Weintraub (USA), Esther
Moñivas (Spain), Ryszard W.
Kluszczynski (Poland), Karla Brunet
(Brazil), Phillip Ball (GB), as well
as other artists and activists working
around the theme of water in the
multitude of its potential meanings
and applications. An extensive meta-
interface website was designed by
Claudia Jacques.
