<\/p>\n

As their final work, students of AICA-Armenia\u2019s Art Criticism and Curatorial Training School have planned and are implementing Encounters on Borders Summer Festival of Community Art in Ijevan. The festival represents the second section of ongoing Summer School carried out under the Aesthetic Communities and Contextual Translation of Community Art title.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The festival program includes a variety of events: exhibitions, workshops, lectures, discussions, a retrospective panel discussion and presentation of archive materials on Ijevan International Symposium for Sculpture , as well as individual presentations and performative events. All of the projects presented are united by the interest towards the social and historical, dimension, and figurative aspects of urban environment.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Festival focuses on temporal and spatial borders in general. Borders, which pass between historical-cultural heritage and present social-political context, between the city and the nature, geopolitical centers and peripheries, between public and private sectors, the arts and other fields of activities. These are neutral places which lie beyond the hegemony of any rule or regime; here the socio-political, urban, environmental, cultural, linguistic and other tensions are accumulated.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Unlike representational art which produces an \u201cauthor\u201d and a \u201cspectator\u201d, Encounters on Borders Summer Festival promotes community art aimed at overcoming borders.\u00a0<\/p>\n
