Studying the influence of Manifesta 3 on the local art scene

Analysing works of art

head: Saša Glavan, co-workers: Vanesa Cokl and Tanja Pesko

The task of this group is to gather (through, questionnaires, interviews and press-clippings) the expectations and experience of contemporary art protagonists in the Slovene region (curators, gallery owners, artists, critics) related to the hosting of Manifesta 3 in Ljubljana: how are they involved in it (if at all); how they relate to it; does the event in their opinion influence the local art scene (if yes – how); what can the event offer them, and what are their expectations, etc. We will gather data in three stages: before in the middle and at the end of the Manifesta 3 - that’s how we will get comparative and detailed overview.
