MARTINKA BOBRIKOVA & OSCAR DE CARMEN

Considering collegial exchange, informal peer-to-peer/practice-to-practice learning, and attempts at friendship as a fundamental part of our remit, UKS introduced a new, weekly walk-in-workshop in January 2019, called HOW TO PRACTICE?

Starting off the workweek every Monday morning at 10am during exhibition periods, rotating local and international practitioners in the cultural field teach their conspicuous version of this essential question, serving up their tricks and toolboxes, fears and desires, excel sheets, or yoga positions as UKS serves free coffee.

For UKS’ 29th walk-in-workshop Oslo-based artist duo MARTINKA BOBRIKOVA & OSCAR DE CARMEN will initiate a conversation about their shared practice. Since 2005 Bobrikova & de Carmen have been working together on different community-based projects with the aim to create new forms of social ecosystems. As a part of this on-going project, they developed the Nomad AiR residency program focusing on alternative models for artists in residency. More recently, they co-founded the project Future Utopia Community Key—within which they organize an annual anti-symposium IECES (International Encounters of Community and Environmental Sociology). At UKS they will open up a conversation with questions such as: How did they meet? How to share both failures and successes? Or sometimes even sharing the artist fee, a bed, and their traveling ticket?

#29 HOW TO PRACTICE? took place on 9.12.2019
