2008. DISCUSSION PANELS PROGRAMME
Place: La Casa Encendida (Ronda de Valencia No. 2, Madrid)Date: 7th and 8th FebruaryTime: From 17.00 to 21.00 h.
Continuing the practice established in the last editions, this year the debate tables are organised once again in collaboration with La Casa Encendida. As in previous editions, on the one hand, the debate tables will present the projects produced for Madrid Abierto and, on the other, they will introduce different initiatives developed within the sphere of art in the public space.
The round tables will include the active participation of the commission set up last year to debate the model of Madrid Abierto. The commission's co-ordinator, Rocío Gracia, and its members, Cecilia Anderson, Guillaume Désanges, Jorge Díez, Ramón Parramon, María Inés Rodríguez and Fito Rodríguez, together with this edition's organisers, the collective DEMOCRACIA.
For the artists’ presentations, the event's organisers have established three groups, although aware that the groups may be pervious and that one same project may meet several of the established premises. On the one hand, we will have the projects that make the contemporary class conflict visible, as well as a temporary suspension of the exclusions generated by this conflict, on another hand, those that employ elements or the propagandistic language of the urban scene, and lastly, those more closely associated with forms of urban culture.
The artistic experience developed in the public space faces the complex task of intervening in a saturated and hyper-aesthetized space with few fissures. The temporary and ephemeral nature of these artistic practices often places obstacles in the way of the dissemination and development possibilities of many interesting proposals that would require more time, with respect to the prior investigation and the subsequent production of the interventions as well as the desirable convergence with other projects and other social and cultural agents. In light of this, the opening of new spaces is needed to encourage other forms of production and dissemination, as well as the creation of networks of information and collaboration between this kind of artistic practices. For this reason, every year Madrid Abierto aims to give exposure to other similar experiences. In this edition, Nelson Brissac and Vit Havranek will be responsible for presenting invited projects, offering their experience in the debate on the strategies applied to the city and the territory from an artistic perspective, with more or less emphasis on experimentation, multi-discipline, the process and interaction with the public.

2008. Anno Dijstra. THE TROYAN HORSE PROJECT
My practise is to study and discus ‘witnessing through the camera’, the second-hand experience, by opposing these media with sculpture, with a three dimensional, analogous confrontation.I am interested in possibility that sculpture gives to discuss mass media.
THE TROYAN HORSE PROJECTThe idea is to leave sculptures behind in the public space for the citizens to find. The sculptures are reconstructions of images seen in newspapers or on television.
The sculptures are well made but unfinished, still in process, it looks as if someone works on it at home, a personal thing. It is left, for example, on top of a car, a playground, bus stop, etc..
The hand-made sculpture shows patience, craftsmanship, and are tactile, has weight. They depict the same image as the camera, yet materially stand in stark contrast to their media images counterparts.
People will find these sculptures. Maybe they take it home, or bring them to the lost and found, vandalizes them, give it to someone, or a reaction that’s beyond my imagination. This project breaks through the normal passive relation we have with media images and shows the emotional vacuum.

2008. Anno Dijstra. PROPOSTAL 23/ Atomic cloud, 2011
PROPOSAL 23 / Atomic cloudBuilding a scale model/reconstruction of a atomic cloud of 7000 metres high, a model of 1:350 m
With the installation/site specific work I want to turn the recollection in to a physical experience.
The audience can visit the scale model. But the scale model is 20 meters high, a model you have to climb in to see it completely. The real cloud is 350 time higher.
The sculpture will stay in the scaffolding, to make it able for the audience to see the scale model from all sides.
The scenery will have the feel of a film set, building site, still in process, a attempt to reconstruct the event.

2008. Anno Dijstra. MISPLACING (theoretical data)
MISPLACING. OBLIGED SEEING
I was a witness of the famine in Ethiopia in 1984, i was 14 years of age and was watching television at home.
What is a memory of a scene I have seen on television. A image where I am not direct related too, immaterial, elusive, with out a location, floating through air. I cant go back too the place where the drama happened. The television in my living room is the location where I was witness of the scene, but the television shows already other images and in my living room is nothing that refers to the drama.
Media turns me in too a passive observer. There is no possibility to make a direct reaction to what I have see on the screen. How free is observing without engagement, in other words can a witness becomes guilty when he sees but remains passive.
The reconstructions- proposals, are a attempt to break trough the passive position of the viewer. With plasticine, a industrial clay invented to make prototypes for industrial products like cars, I am modeling images that had a great impact on me in my puberty, a moment in my live I became aware of my mortality.
The process of reconstructing process makes it able to have a direct and physical relation to a body or object from the tv image.
MISPLACEMENT
For the Madrid Abierto I want to research a new angle of the reconstruction/proposal by investigating misplacement. The misplacing media caused . In this concept a well know media icon is placed outside the original context, that is television/internet in our living room in to the public space. From the flat public space (tv) in our private place into the three dimensional public space, the place where national history is gathered through time . By the conflict erasing from the misplacing, ( I know this image but what has it got to do with this place) the new situation reveals the absurd position of the viewer, the absurd situation of being witness in the globalized media age.
In the public space a monument is placed. The monument is a reconstruction of for example the photo of a Vietnamese monk who set himself on fire or a photo taken by a soldier in Abu Ghraib on witch a prisoner is standing on a box his face covert and is connected to electricity wires.
PREPARATION
To find the perfect spot for the misplacement and make sure the media icon has no relation with Madrid it is important to make a good observation of the city, its history, the design of the public space and other monuments. From the information of these observations I want to make the decision witch media icon I should reconstruct and where it should be placed.
I will visit Madrid for 3 days and I would like to ask the organization if it is possible to contact me with a historian and a city planner who knows a lot about Madrid and are interested to walk with me trough the neighborhoods of Madrid where the exhibition is held.
I did enclose images of my last works because I never make sketches or Marquette’s of my work, the work itself is a plan a sketch, reconstruction or proposal. And its important for me to keep that kind of discovering energy.
The project is a new step in my work, but also coming from the reconstruction concept, former works are made from that principal, the new work is connected to these works.
