Transart Com­mu­nic­a­tion

The river is an in-between place, which both be­longs to the river it­self - a lim­in­al space of move­ment and change -, yet deeply af­fected by the polit­ic­al and so­cial tend­en­cies and his­tory, found on either side of the river. The TAC30 boat will in­vite in­ter­na­tion­al artists, along stu­dents and teach­ers from seven sig­ni­fic­ant Visu­al Art Uni­ver­sit­ies from Cent­ral European, work­ing with per­form­ance art, to tackle the con­text of the river, by en­cour­aging in­ter­cul­tur­al re­la­tions and dia­logues. It thus be­comes a plat­form for artist­ic ex­changes across dis­cip­lines, edu­ca­tion, prac­tices, coun­tries, gen­er­a­tions and views. Sim­ul­tan­eously, the nat­ur­al move­ment of the river evoke a sense of bor­der­less­ness and change. The Boat Pro­ject thus be­comes an ac­tion, which opens up for the dis­cus­sion and de­bate about the ef­fect and re­la­tion cul­tures has to one an­oth­er, bey­ond the idea of bor­ders.
