We are also working with architects on new websites: a project with OBRA Architects from New York City is just getting underway, so again the process is sure to be exciting and intense. Often questions arise about what a website could be today, what it must be able to provide under the surface. How far can you get away from norms and from what you have learned? For LAVA Architects in Berlin and Sydney, we are working on a book that will have the character of a magazine and will treat individual sections differently in terms of design. For Villa Romana in Florence, we are now designing the second annual publication. Basically, this is five publications in one, since a separate section is being developed by us with and for each artist. Since the beginning of the pandemic we have been working for Kunsthall Trondheim and its director Stefanie Hessler—a fruitful and exciting collaboration. It gives us a lot of freedom. In collaboration with Kunsthall Trondheim, the Hannah Ryggen Triennial has been announced. Here Ryggen’s political weavings from the first half of the 20th century are placed in the context of contemporary art. With Nomeda and Gediminas Urbonas, Lithuanian artists who teach at MIT in Cambridge, we have an almost 15-year collaboration. This year we plan to print and release the Swamp book, and we are working on the further development of the above-mentioned Swamp Game, possibly also with an installative realization. With Urbonas, we have a very close collaboration which allows us to try new things on many levels.
