The ‘RRRIPP!! Paper Fashion’ exhibition looks into the use of paper as a material for garment manufacture, an unknown aspect of sartorial culture. A very unique and special publication/catalogue accompanies the first Paper Fashion exhibition at the Benaki Museum, Athens. This is a book in process, making openings to various parties, leaving open working hypotheses through the specialists’ texts, which depict various aspects of research into the history of the relationship of paper to garments. The book simultaneously places particular emphasis on the ephemeral, fragile, humble and poetic nature of paper garments, juxtaposing modern creations with paper garments from different cultures and civilisations.

Οccupy Atopos

“ @atoposcvc, @documenta14 and Studio14 invite you to Studio 14’s farewell event on the occasion of the Occupy Atopos Residency. For the last three months the initiators of Studio 14, Salvatore Lacagnina and Paolo Do, have been working on the creation of a study and exhibition space and on a series of talks and discussions under the research title “Deep in the sea there is a puffer fish … Fables, Traditions and Other Impostors” on the occasion of documenta 14.

On Thursday, July 13, at 21:30, Studio 14 will present its research on the topics of language, tradition, world trade and the Mediterranean through visual materials and a listening piece by Marcel Gschwend aka Bit-Tuner. Meanwhile, in the courtyard of Atopos cvc, DJ Marcelle, especially invited to Athens for the event, will play a selection of records out of her vast collection.

The evening will start with greetings and introduction speeches by Salvatore Lacagnina and Paolo Do (Studio 14), Adam Szymczyk, artistic director of documenta 14, and Stamos Fafalios and Vassilis Zidianakis, directors of Atopos cvc.

OCCUPY ATOPOS RESIDENCY

Atopos cvc was founded in 2003 by Stamos Fafalios and Vassilis Zidianakis and it has been researching and initiating innovative projects of contemporary visual culture ever since. Occupy Atopos Residency originated in 2014 in the Atopos headquarters in the heart of Athens and it has hosted photographer Ren Hang, artist-critic Clo’e Floirat and Paris-based fashion curator Lydia Kamitsis, amongst others. Its mission is to observe and assist in a supportive way the creative process and progress of contemporary artists; it is curated by Vassilis Zidianakis.  Occupy Atopos Residency takes place in Atopos headquarters, 72 Salaminos str, which has been declared a historic monument and a work of art by the Greek Ministry of Culture. The collaboration of Atopos cvc and documenta 14, in the context of the Occupy Atopos Residency programme, started in the autumn of 2016 and will be completed in July 2017. The first artist of this collaboration was Bouchra Khalili, who resided in Atopos from September 8 until December 14. Neving Aladag, Daniel Knorr and Ibrahim Mahama, that followed after, her stayed and worked in the Atopos premises until April 30. This partnership reaches its end with Salvatore Lacagnina and Paolo Do, curators of Studio 14, who will be staying in Atopos cvc from May 1 to July 30.

DOCUMENTA 14

Documenta was initiated by Arnold Bode in 1955 and became one of the most renowned and debated international exhibitions of contemporary art, taking place in Kassel every five years. For documenta 14 Artistic Director Adam Szymczyk, has proposed a twofold structure, reflected in the working title “Learning from Athens”. In 2017, Athens (April 8–July 16, 2017) and Kassel (June 10–September 17, 2017) will host the exhibition on an equal footing. For documenta 14, participating artists have been invited to think and produce within the context of the emerging dynamic relationship between these two cities and to develop a work for each of the two locations.”
