Editors: Incidents (of Travel) dispatch #18 from Attica, Greece. Reportage by curator Xenia Kalpaktsoglou following an itinerary by artist Pegy Zali

incidents.kadist.org

Xenia Kalpaktsoglou and Pegy Zali conceive an itinerary and a screenplay-like commentary that takes us through the Attica peninsula, from a mysterious inscription sprayed at the site of a railway sabotage that transpired near Piraeus Port in 2010, to the vestiges of an enormous wildfire that consumed the forest around Alepochori in 2021. Formed through their long-standing friendship and shared research interests, this episode flows around Greece’s links with the emerging infrastructure of China’s New Silk Road, and the “cyber-eco-feminist” traces of the goddess Gaia.

Since 2012, Incidents (of Travel) has explored the chartered day-long itinerary as a format of artistic encounter and an extended conversation between curators and artists.
