IM-PORT//EX-PORT

From April to Oc­to­ber 2012, a de­com­mis­sioned ship will be trans­formed in­to the MS IM-PORT//EX-PORT, a trans­dis­ci­pli­nary plat­form for art, sci­ence and teach­ing on the riv­er Ful­da. The ship, which was re­tired af­ter 40 years of pas­sen­ger ves­sel ser­vice, of­fers a unique set of ameni­ties at a river­side site in the cen­ter of Kas­sel. Dur­ing dOC­U­MEN­TA (13), it will pro­vide a unique in­ter­face be­tween the uni­ver­si­ty, its art school, the ci­ty of Kas­sel and the in­ter­na­tio­n­al public.

The IM-PORT//EX-PORT ini­tia­tive will make the main, up­per and sun decks avai­l­able for ex­hi­bi­tions, lec­tures, work­shops and col­lab­o­ra­tive work. The goal of this trans­dis­ci­pli­nary pro­ject is to bring artists, ar­chi­tects, sci­en­tists, stu­dents and teach­ers to­gether in a sin­gu­lar lo­ca­tion. The guid­ing theme is the con­cept of exchange—of life in a state of flow. In a pro­cess of in­vesti­ga­tion and imag­i­na­tion, vari­ous fields will be made ac­ces­si­ble through dia­logue with other dis­ci­p­lines. The pro­ject re­lies on the self-di­rect­ed par­ti­ci­pa­tion of rep­re­sen­ta­tives of the arts and the sci­ences. The main con­cern of IM-PORT//EX-PORT is to gen­er­ate and har­ness mu­tu­al in­spi­ra­tion from art, sci­ence and tech­nol­o­gy—their in­her­ent sim­i­lar­i­ties, par­al­lel de­vel­op­ments and dif­fer­ences—and to ex­plore work pro­cess­es and pro­ce­dures.

IM-PORT//EX-PORT is a fea­tured site of the ci­ty’s of­fi­cial Kas­sel Kul­tur 2012 pro­gram in con­junc­tion with dOC­U­MEN­TA(13). A publi­ca­tion will be re­leased in au­tumn 2013.
