this PLaCe<br />
The interviews for “THiS plaCE” were conducted in Jerusalem, Tel aviv,<br />
Beit Neqofa, Kufur Yasif, and Bethlehem; some took place in the summer<br />
of 2007, the majority in February of 2008. The spatial installation serves<br />
both to present our personal approach to the issues and to illustrate the<br />
complexity we experienced. listening only to this small group of israelis and<br />
palestinians (with the sole exception of the palestinian-austrian musician<br />
marwan abado, who lives in vienna) – most of them are our friends – one<br />
can get a sense of how different the approaches to this land are, how different<br />
the narratives. Every individual story makes perfect sense; once one<br />
hears the <strong>voices</strong> as an ensemble, things begin to get extraordinarily complicated.<br />
it takes about 13 hours to hear all interviews in their entirety. The<br />
interviews are available on DvD.<br />
The art project ritesinstitute is an independent institution devoted to free education,<br />
research, and the production of associations, variant ideas, events,<br />
and actions. We inquire into the production of identities. We focus on the<br />
points of contact between what is different. We examine and manipulate imagery.<br />
We subvert and posit actions. We inspect, open, and research borders.<br />
Our central method in this context is the creation of international and a-national<br />
connections between artists, activists, and theorists.
