Dear Friends, Family, Supporters, Art and Culture Lovers,
We have been working together as the artist duo 44flavours for over 20 years and are proud to announce, that we will publish our very first book entitled »ENSEMBLE«.
The book will be complemented with texts by curator Elke Giffeler and artist Dinho Araujo. Elke will categorize our work and provide a comprehensive overview. Dinho will write about our collaboration and joint projects in Brazil as well as his perspective on our work as a duo.
This publication will contain a careful selection of our projects and works from the last two decades, documenting the development and dynamics of our artistic collaboration.
Please support us by pre-ordering a book or a special edition and if you like share our crowdfunding project with your community.
Yours sincerely,
Julio & Sebastian
About the book
In the book, we will look at our backgrounds and the dynamics of our collaboration: What context do we come from? How did we develop together? Another focus will be on our installation work and our experimentation with different materials, with bricolage playing a major role. Overall, our research into painting and the exploration of physical and imaginary spaces will be covered.
The main influences on our work can be filtered out as follows: encounters with other positions, investigating certain materials and learning techniques, discovering new places and ways of thinking, social exchange, and the activation and exploration of work processes in exchange with others, the development of a dynamic that leads to new ways of working and results, playful exploration, discovery, trial and error.
