REALITY CHECK
As a part of RC Thierry Geoffroy is the creator and organizer of Critical Run in Trondheim 8 May
The title REALITY CHECK refers to the act of identifying whether one’s ideas and visions are rooted in reality.
Reality Check wishes to bring attention to art and artists concerned with social and political issues, art and activism.The title may here also be interpreted as art examining reality. REALITY CHECK involves artists working with projects examining reality, our everyday life, the lives we lead,
the society and world we live it in, whether these projects are in the form of dialogues with the general public, interventions, documentaries or protests.
The project wishes to put an increased focus on art as a social activity, where the gallery functions as a social arena where the different artists meet and ideas are exchanged with the audience. Therefore various activities such as talks, workshops and special screenings, will take place during the project period.
For updated information about the special events please see www.samtidskunst.no
