Diffusion: Collaborative Practice in Contemporary Art

	Bureau d'etudes at the Generali Foundation 2003

Since the early 1990s there has been a major rise in group-based and collective art practice. Artist groups and duos, and collaborative relations between artists and audiences, have become a familiar part of the artistic landscape. New kinds of practice exploring the idea of art as an expanded form of intellectual activity have emerged. This symposium brings together leading artists and writers to discuss the cultural and political implications of these changes and the revived expectations for an art of the social. Speakers include Jennifer Allora & Guillermo Calzadilla (who are taking part in Tate Modern’s exhibition Common Wealth ), Bureau d’études, Eve Chiapello, Cornford & Cross, François Deck, Jochen Gerz, Charles Green, Brian Holmes, John Roberts and Stephen Wright.

A collaboration with the School of Art & Design, University of Wolverhampton, with support from the Institut français
