In the context of the international
artist-in-residence program of the
ACC gallery and the City of Weimar,
the UTOPIAN INSTITUTE settles for
ten days in the public sphere of the city.

On the border between art and crisis,
the UIW examines the term 'utopia'
with regard to Weimar's urban space which is characterised by the touristic   staging of tradition and its "cultural heritage", and thus is part of the almost exclusive logic of commercial consumption.
