FOLK 08 – lokal global

Mariannelund June 28 – August 31 2008: “FOLK-08 local global” invites to communication and understanding through the arts! There will be contemporary art of all kinds: exhibitions, seminaries, workshops, video art, poetic documentary film, poetry nights, outdoor cinema, youth project, music, dance performances…

The project is a Swedish follow-up of the international art project FOLK-05, arranged by Galleri Lista Fyr, Norway, in cooperation with Areopagos, TCG Nordica, China, and the ArtsNordica Network during the summer of 2005: FOLK-05

Where?
In Mariannelund, strategically located 300 km from Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö; on the border of Kalmar-, Jönköping- and Östergötland counties.

For whom?
For everyone who lives in Astrid Lindgren’s native district. For tourists travelling through, visitors with a special interest in art and culture or just curious FOLK in general. For young people from Kiruna in the north to Malmö in the south, who have been involved in international culture exchange projects in Kunming, China. For especially invited Chinese young people… For invited artists and culture personages from Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, China, Cambodia and England…

About what?
About life and love in different cultures and different languages. About global responsibility and influencing the environment. About consumption and identity. About how the small things we do can make a big difference! FOLK-08 local global invites to communication and understanding among people through the arts.

Youth Project, Mariannelund Railwaystation:

Young Consumption! local global

Through various creative expressions, young people from Sweden learn more about sustainable development, fair trade, democracy and human rights together with 10 young Chinese.

Organizer: TCG Nordica Kunming in cooperation with KAiM. Sponsor: Forum Syd’s Youth Fund.

From July 23 to August 1, 10 young Chinese and Swedes will together take part in seminaries, artistic interpretations and creative expressions in the project “Young Consumption! local global”. The purpose of the project is to raise questions and create awareness about the consumption society, which is already established in Sweden and rapidly growing in China, with its booming economy. Three main questions during these ten days are:

– How does this situation influence us, as individuals and as a collective (fashion and identity)?
– How do we influence the surrounding world by our local consumption choices (sustainable development, environment and human rights)?
– Are we, as consumers, only victims of the market forces or can we lead the development in new directions (fair trade, ethical consumption, ecological products)? If so, why would that be desirable?
