These three curators are here to do research for the Ars Baltica Triennial of Photographic Art: Under the motto Don't Worry - Be Curious!, artists, curators, and academics from five western and five eastern European countries bordering the Baltic Sea will address the problems and fear resulting from upheavals in present-day society. The project comprises an exhibition to be shown in Kiel (DE), Tallinn (EE), Pori (FI) and other locations in the Baltic Sea region; an interdisciplinary conference, for which a collaboration with the Muthesius Hochschule in Kiel is planned; and an artist-in-residence program for which several artists will develop new works in the partner countries.
