Judith Wielander

Judith Wielander and Nico Dockx collaborated for the first time in 2001 at Cittadellarte - Pistoletto Foundation in Italy. The dialogue and exchange over the years take now the shape of THE EXPANDING ACADEMY. It’s a school in the school, a pedagogical space extending outside of the classroom- which could also be read as a need to 'expand' beyond the exhibition-based space into situations where and when one is working with contexts as a whole, where to raise social understandings, where to encourage new forms of solidarity and to improve our living conditions.
