From the earliest Cabinet of Curiosities by Ferrante Imperato to the transformative shift embodied in Marcel Duchamp’s valise, or the later contribution of Ai Wei Wei\u2019s structural reinforcements, artistic responses to the concept of archive and archival materials undergo an intellectual shift. It represents a profound paradigmatic change, navigating from the encyclopedic to the curatorial, from the definitive to the reformative, and from the original to the replica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            This presentation explores how contemporary practices revive archival materials, turning them into objects of attention<\/em>. It delves into archival theories and processes involving deconstruction, decontextualization, detachment, and recycling, providing practical guidance and metaphorical models for the disciplines of art, architecture, and design. The discussion will also extend to T\u00fcrker’s cross-disciplinary projects documenting cultural heritages in domains of architecture and ethnography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*d<\/em>\u00e9tournement <\/em>is a French word meaning deflection, diversion, and distortion, or similar. Situationists used it to describe the archival reconstruction of artworks by creatively reforming them. Nicolas Bourriaud also references the word in his post-production <\/em>thesis to describe the up-cycled state of archival materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
