OPEN ARCH at BüroFriedrich

magazine week

17.-19. July 2003, 2-6p.m.

Saturday, July 19, 2003 starting at 6p.m.
Evening event: Discussion, BBQ and Brychcy Bar


With Open Arch BüroFriedrich presents a month-long series of summer shows,
which invite artists and designers from the respective fields of
architecture, publications, art and fashion to make use of the exhibition
space for a 5-day period. The individual segments are not exhibitions in the
traditional sense. Instead groups of artists and designers present projects
which encourage interaction and participation on the part of the public. In
conjunction with a series of talks, the program intends to generate active
communication between the viewers and artist-producers. In some cases,
projects will actually require and depend on the participation of exhibition
visitors. The core idea is to create a communicative space, in which the
viewer is actively engaged.

PRINT IT!

In the second week of the 'OPEN ARCH at BüroFriedrich' series publishers
from Berlin and Amsterdam will present their magazines over the course of
three days. At different times throughout the exhibition authors, editors,
graphic designers and invited guests will be at BüroFriedrich, in order to
introduce their magazines in person or through videos, performances,
installations and events.

Viewers are given the opportunity to take part in these events, gain insight
into the working processes and concepts behind each of the differently
positioned magazines and meet the representatives from the exhibiting
journals. Some of the magazines are new this year; others have been in
existence for a long time. Emphasis is placed both on the visual appearance
and content of the publications. The magazines focus on the fields of art,
culture, politics and photography and have an interdisciplinary approach.

'Neue Review' is dedicated to art criticism. Articles are never written by
one person alone. For each edition specific guidelines are established,
which make the magazine a conceptual work in its own right. 'Neue Review'
gives viewers the opportunity to contribute to the next issue by submitting
their critiques of visited exhibitions at a specially designed workplace.
Viewer entries will be published in the next issue.
The visitor can actively participate.

'Classix' offers an exchange specially created for OPEN ARCH at
BüroFriedrich, namely "Trading Pop for Classics". Each visitor can bring in
an old pop CD and trade it on-site for a new CD with classical music.
Viewers can listen to the available CDs in advance. The pop CDs will then be
recycled into a new composition by a composer / artist to be named during
the exhibition. The visitor can actively participate.

'Peace etc.' is the second edition of a series planned by its publishers.
With its newspaper format the magazine includes articles ranging from
critical assessments, theories and opinions by various international
authors. www.etc-publications.com

The Berlin art magazine '032c' always addresses a different theme, which is
reflected in both illustrations and theoretical content of each issue. For
example, the fifth issue is dedicated to 'Shanghai Desire'

'babel' is a photo journal "trying to navigate as close to the collective
unconscious as possible and determine the position of reality in
photography"

'Classix' is a magazine in the format of a flyer, which aims to inform a
younger readership about classical music.

'Catalogue' is based in Amsterdam and appears every four months. Catalogue
was founded as a private initiative, in order to address specific issues in
the field of art and culture through writings, critiques, graphic design,
commentary, photography and illustration. Each edition is designed by a
different artist.

Based in Amsterdam 'Re-Magazine' is a journal for lifestyle, art and
culture. Re-magazine presents issue no. 10  Claudia. Claudia is an
extraordinary woman from Berlin. With her overwhelming height of 1.98 m,
she's simply too big for this world.

'BUTT fagazine' is an international faggot magazine for interesting
homosexuals and the men who love them.
