ECF awarded Europoly by Dejan Kaludjerovic: 15.000 euros to realize exhibitions and debates through Europe
The project Europoly – The Union Identity Trading Game by artist Dejan Kaludjerovic gained an important result: the project, developed by Kaludjerovic at Unidee in Residence 2005 with the collaboration of Love Difference, has been awarded 15,000 euros by the European Cultural Foundation. The contribution will permit the realization of a tour of exhibitions and debates in Europe, discussing the issue of European Identity. The artist describes his project as follows:
“I found many of similarities between the rules of the original Monopoly board game, that has the scope of obtaining a monopoly over somebody or something, and those of the European Union for a person to gain access. I transformed a recognisable game into a labyrinth in which the pathways and procedures are never certain. In the game I reproduced the professions, differentiated according to prestige and social utility, practised by non-European citizens within the countries of the European Union. The scope of the game is to obtain European citizenship: the possibility of winning or losing is determined mostly by chance.”
