A Call to Bring In Art Works to the Archive of (trans)Yugoslav Feminist Art
The Bring In Take Out Living Archive is a collaborative art project that 
works on the principals of sharing, information exchange, and 
‘collective vs. individual knowledge’. With this continuous open call we 
are looking for information, documentation of art works and art works of 
women and feminist artists from the (trans/post)Yugoslav space.

The main feature of the project’s public display are (working) stations 
like: curated exhibition, live interviews, artist’s talks, reading room, 
digitalizing and uploading on the spot, video archive and similar. The 
first public display will happen in Gliptoteka Gallery in Zagreb, in the 
framework of the REDacting TransYugoslav Feminisms: Women’s Heritage 
Revisited, October 13 - 16, 2011; the second in Ljubljana, at Red Dawns 
Festival, in March 2012; the third in Sarajevo, in September 2012, the 
fourth in Vienna, at Open Systems, in October 2012.

For the Perpetuum Mobile station we are calling for video art works - to 
be screened at the curated exhibition. For legal reasons we can only 
accept video art works in public domain, as a gift or simply as a copy. 
For Reading Room and Digital Owen we are looking for any kind of 
documentation: photo, exhibition photos or information on video and 
audio material etc., preferably in digital format. The main objective is 
to collect the information of a specific project (or art work, artist, 
group, event …) and to make it available and visible, either on the 
occasions of public displays and/or online.

The intention of Bring In Take Out Living Archive is not to build a 
material archive with the original works and materials. It is primary a 
mobile and digital platform where collaboration is not an intention but 
rather an unavoidable act, not a commodity to be praised but a challenge 
to explore. It is a continuous process where openness and inclusiveness 
are considered as a strategy and not as a final and firm possibility.

In case you are able to share, collaborate and add anything of (your 
personal) interest to Bring In Take Out Living Archive please send it by 
email, file sharing services or snail mail (see addresses below or the 
following address: CRVENA – Association for Culture and Art Hamdije 
Čemerlića 11/1, 71 000 Sarajevo). Please feel free to ask or inform us 
for/on details, credits etc. The deadline for the first public display 
in Zagreb is October 11, 2011.
