:: KULTIVATOR | The Wedding between Art and Agriculture
Manifestation for a new relationship
Background: In late 2008, Art foundation Littoral, UK asked Kultivator to arrange one out of three european preparational meetings that aims to programme an EU/international art and agricultur conference in London 2011. As an answer to this, and as a summing up of almost five years of research and activities in the field of art+agriculture, Kultivator intends to host an international meeting that formalizes our network, and manifests publicly the relation and the fertility of this field. The location is our farm in Dyestad, Öland, Sweden, and the conference will take the form of a wedding and follow the rituals and structures of a traditional peasant wedding, lasting for three days.
