BIO
The Unstitute is a series of makeshift architectural sites which follow the movements of its labourers. Each movement contains a series of movements, each series proliferates into extensions and entrances, holes and dead-ends, annexes and chambers; sequential sectional additions. The series provides the desired movement – never singular, absolute, permanent, profound – always plural, temporary, mobile, superficial. Occupying a run-down, former industrial area of the internet, its architecture appropriates abandoned territories from within, proliferated by drilling and boring, satisfying temporary uses. The labourers themselves work furtive hours, and their number is unknown.
The Unstitute supports four artists’ residencies annually, under certain Conditions.

Final Tovarisch Residency at The Unstitute/CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Dates:
Wed Mar 06, 2013 10:20 - Thu Jun 06, 2013
Clear As Mud/Lustig Weil
"Sub-Curation"
7th March - 7th June 2013
http://www.theunstitute.org/Tovarisch.html
The final residency in the Tovarisch series (2011-2013) was due to go online today, but unfortunately CAM (Clear As Mud) - the artists' collective once nominated for the prestidgous Beck's Futures art prize - have become insolvent and are now in receivership due to underproduction. That's a sign of the times, as they say.
The administrators Lustig Weil, (sole asset holders,) have very kindly and not at all in the fashion of a predatory finance group agreed to host the residency in order to help the artists reach their creative aspirations and to recover some debt.
*OPEN CALL*
Everyone and anyone is invited to submit an application and help restore Clear As Mud to the industry standard. Successful applicants will have their proposals hosted at The Unstitute at a very reasonable rate of interest and at no personal liability.
For more information, please email Gabba Griswold at lustigweil@gmail.com

The unFestive season kicks off with further active nihilism in the corridors of The Unstitute:
View recent drawings and animations inside 'The Zone' by our current resident James Moore:
The drawings will form a journal that documents my fictitious wanderings around The Zone. The drawings would picture a series of urban and rural landscapes, industrial waste grounds and so on, and a few characters and creatures.
(http://theunstitute.org/Tovarisch.html)
On the written side of stuff, the Abministrator has posted the following two things in her office:
There's an anonymously posted essay regarding the French gangster film 'Le Cercle Rouge' by Jean-Pierre Melville.
(http://theunstitute.org/Le.Cercle.Rouge.html)
And the manifesto-writing machine has churned out a new text against Idealism.

Or if you just want to wander about and get lost, feel free to do so...

James Moore
Zone Walker / зона ходунки
01/11/12 - 31/01/13
Architectural spaces, computer games and photographic realism all play a part in James Moore's work. These paintings all picture something expansive, something concrete, conjured-up from fictional environments, sketches and photographs. One work may depict a virtual space, from an imagined world, while another might show a city park or a building from the real world. The painted scenes are never unbelievable spaces - they always stay close to the real, on the border of fiction.
"My proposal for the residency is to post a series (approx 30) of drawings / paintings on a web page over the course of the residency. The drawings will form a journal that documents my fictitious wanderings around The Zone. The drawings would picture a series of urban and rural landscapes, industrial waste grounds and so on, and a few characters and creatures. I intend to let my mind roam as the journey starts. I have a rough plan of some key locations to draw, but I want to keep the images lively. This also means that the potential for surrealism will be very strong. The images will be based on a mixture of stills from computer games, scenes from a particular novel and real places that I will visit. These physical places add an interesting element, as I will actually start to take on the strange role of the walker in the zone."
