ECONOMIA EFORTULUI

Curatori: Ioana Nitu & Silvia Vasilescu

Artisti: Valerie Soe, Gabriel de la Mora, Diane Nerwen, Les Leveque,  
Mumia Abu-Jamal (Prison Radio).
Exista o distorsionare / contradictie intre lucrurile pe care vrem sa  
le credem adevarate si lucrurile care sunt adevarate (desi "precise"  
ar fi un termen mai bun), toate provenind din informatia pe care o  
acceptam ca fiind corecta, fara a-i confrunta veridicitatea.
Modele deficite sau insuficiente ale realitatii sunt doar un produs a  
ceea ce Walter Lippman a enumerat ca factori ai economiei efortului:  
"... limitarile contactului social, timpul comparativ insuficient  
disponibil in fiecare zi pentru a acorda atentiei la treburile  
publice, distorsionarea care rezulta datorita evenimentelor care  
trebuie comprimate in mesaje foarte scurte, dificultatea de a face un  
vocabular mic sa exprime o lume complicata, si in final teama de  
confruntare cu acele notiuni care ar parea sa ameninte rutina  
existenta din viata oamenilor."
Proiectul poate avea un scop educational, ideal ar fi sa repare  
erorile cauzate nu de fictiunea sau realitatea prezentata, aici, cu o  
concluzie evidenta, ci de fictiunea din mintea noastra, cauza, precum  
si mediul tuturor informatiilor inselatoare. Si, deasemenea, trebuie  
adaugat, daca nu face parte din istoria noastra, sau din prezent, ce  
ar fi mai intelept de ales, luand si lipsa timpului in ecuatie,  
empatia sau indiferenta?

ECONOMY OF EFFORT

Curators: Ioana Nitu & Silvia Vasilescu

Participants: Valerie Soe, Gabriel de la Mora, Diane Nerwen, Les  
Leveque, Mumia Abu-Jamal (Prison Radio)
There is a distortion/contradiction between the things we want to  
believe as true and the things that are true (although accurat would  
be a better term), all coming from the information we take as right  
without confronting it's veracity .
The deficient or insufficient models of reality are just products of  
what W. Lippman counted as factors of the economy of effort : "...the  
limitations of social contact, the comparatively meager time available  
in each day for paying attention to public affairs, the distortion  
arising because events have to be compressed into very short messages,  
the difficulty of making small vocabulary express a complicated world,  
and finally the fear of facing those facts which would seem to  
threaten the
established routine of men's lives."

A project like this might have an educational purpose, ideally to undo  
the errors caused not by the fiction or reality presented, here, with  
an evident conclusion, but by the fiction within our heads, the cause  
as well as the environment of all misleading information. And also,  
needed to be added, if it's not part of our history, what is wisser to  
choose, with the lack of time in the equation, empathy or indifference?
Ioana Nitu (b.1986) graduated from the National University of Arts,  
Bucharest. She was the assistant director at PAVILION UNICREDIT. Since  
September 2009 she was appointed as executive director of Bucharest

Arts, Bucharest, and, currently is the Publication and Education  
Manager at PAVILION UNICREDIT and project manager of the educational
