Mein ABC ist elementar (2023)

Ignacio Acosta was invited together with Stella Carlsen, the responsible for the sustainable management at Art Foundry St Gallen (Kunstgiesserei) to take part in the three-part series event "My ABC is…" hosted by the Sitterwerk Foundation.

During a week art residency, they worked together rearranging the Art Library (Kunstbibliothek) collection and Material Archive (Werkstoffarchiv). Focusing on the appearance of copper in the collection, their display invites new ways of reading the archive, creating new categories and relationships by combining publications from the art library and objects from the material collection.

On September 28th, they presented the display in a public discussion moderated by Patricia Hartmann.

The workshop series was supported by Kanton St.Gallen Kulturförderung / Swisslos, Stiftung Temperatio, TISCA Tischhauser Stiftung.
