fridzine
fridzine - derived from Fridericianum zine - is a small publication that attempts to find answers to a simple and yet important question: what can we do in a museum? Fridericianum here refers to a museum space that hosted DAVRA and many many more artists’ collectives and cultural practitioners from all around the world during documenta fifteen not only as a working space, but a kitchen area, dormitory, kids playground and so on.
DAVRA research group asked their colleagues, museum’s staff and peer collectives from documenta fifteen on how one can use a museum space, therefore redefine its purpose and free its image of prejudicial colonial concepts.
