Fillip

The Services Working Group
February 25th, 2021 – February 28th, 2021

As part of the 2021 PMVABF, Fillip is pleased to present the complete video archive of the Services Working Group, held over two days in 1994 at the Kunstraum of the University of Lüneburg.

Programmed in conjunction with the forthcoming release of The Services Working Group, a Folio publication edited by Eric Golo Stone, Fillip will live-stream all 12 hours of video documenting this historic closed-door working group on labor relations and institutional governance in the art field.

Originally organized by Helmut Draxler and Andrea Fraser at the invitation of the Kunstraum’s then-co-directors Beatrice von Bismarck, Diethelm Stoller, and Ulf Wuggenig as part of the exhibition Services: The Conditions and Relations of Service Provision in Contemporary Project Orientated Artistic Practice, this two-day working group brought together an international group of cultural practitioners including Judith Barry, Ute Meta Bauer, Jochen Becker, Ulrich Bischoff, Iwona Blazwick, Susan Cahan, Michael Clegg, Stephan Dillemuth, Renée Green, Martin Guttmann, Renate Lorenz, Christian Philipp Müller, Fritz Rahmann, and Fred Wilson.

The Services Working Group will stream on a 12-hour loop, between noon and midnight EST.
