“Through the power of Jugedar, we will produce a TV show that explores the different states of mind that the city of Amsterdam provokes. From a fireplace to a farmer meeting, we will bring the audience on a journey with us. Each episode invents a new situation, investigating the different possibilities of language and visual interpretations. The TV program will be composed of series of short interviews and reportages interrupted by entertainment interludes.”

More about DAVID BERNSTEIN, GéRALDINE LONGUEVILLE, JURGIS PAšKEVIčIUS

Since October 2011, David Bernstein, Géraldine Longueville and Jurgis Paškevičius have started a process of collaboration called Jugedar. Jugedar is a language system based on the looseness of both understanding and misunderstanding. It is an inner logic to filter and master information in an unpredictable movement, creating new forms of speech, contexts of meeting, and spatiality of language.

David Bernstein, Géraldine Longueville and Jurgis Paškevičius live and work in Amsterdam. They are currently part of MA Fine Arts at The Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam.

David Bernstein (1988, United States) uses conversation games in collaborative performances. He is interested in improvisational speaking through the manipulation and placement of objects. He explores thinging (a reciprocal process of thinking, making things, thinking through things, and seeing things differently through thought). From 2006–2011, he lived in New York and exhibited at various galleries/venues including recently, LIKE, a performance series curated by Gene McHugh at Vogt Gallery. There he performed a conversation piece in collaboration with Nicole Demby where they continually rearranged manipulated domestic objects to form vignettes of an estranged living room. www.yesyesdavid.com

Géraldine Longueville (1981, France) is a curator. From 2005 to 2010 she ran La galerie extérieure, a gallery without art space but with a specific temporality. From 2008 to 2011 she worked on several exhibitions, events and teaching programmes for the Paris-Cergy Fine Art school in France. She recently curated Paper with Moon, a group show organised in the contemporary art centre Le Quartier in 2011. Her ongoing project The entremet is a collective recipe created in Capri to be consumed elsewhere.

Jurgis Paškevičius (1987, Lithuania) mostly works within language and situation specifc acts such as the writing of a script for the closing of an exhibition. From 2006 to 2008, he explored the magic of light within experiments of analogue photography and the beauty of chemistry. From 2009 he was a part of the artists’ collective place “artcore” in Vilnius, Lithuania.
