Project: Through Women's Eyes
Projects 1. Public art action "8 th of March Erosion (Celebrating opposite perspectives)", 07-08 March 2006 The 8 th of March action in Skopje tries through mutual collaboration with art practitioners and theoreticians to call society's attention to live problems from artistic and social existence of the women in the present world. The intention is not to fight, or to ridicule with the men's part of the society. The main idea is to display by means of arts, the point of view of the woman, her feelings, sensations, ambitions and views, as well as her failings. We hope that these actions will serve as a field of experimental art work production, a lasting platform for contemporary art discourse, a meeting place for various theories, methodologies, tools, technique and above all cultural identities in order to reflect the current definition of gender in Macedonia. PAC Multimedia goal is to focus on new flows in theory, art and media and their application to real-life expression. Consequently, the public art action "8 th of March Erosion (Celebrating opposite perspectives)" is a project that aims at providing the grounds for voices and works that combine body, arts, politics and theory in gender based issues and problems. The programme will take place between March 7 and March 8, 2006 and will include street actions/performances, public space interventions and installations, as well as open forums and lectures.
2. Through Women's Eyes, Third Option or the Visions of Possibility that Comes from Young Women, 31st January - 4th February 2007 Through women's eyes is a process oriented project that promotes non-formal education and intercultural cross-border communication for young women, by using art as a tool for social integration. Through women's eyes creates platform where young women with fewer opportunities from Greece, Macedonia, Serbia and Montenegro, Albania, Germany, Belgium and Slovenia as well as young artists engaged in social issues, can work together with international experts in few phases in order to assess, discuss and develop new knowledge, skills and qualifications for their future work. In addition, this project will open the question of empowerment of women in general and particularly in the Balkan, so that they are able to make a contribution and determination of the gender policy in their countries.
