Bei #museumselfies handelt es sich um (Selbst-)porträts von Museumsbesuchern und Bildbetrachterinnen, die sich durch Betätigung des Auslösers zusammen mit dem Werk ablichten und die Ergebnisse umgehend auf sozialen Plattformen im Netz teilen. Am 22. Januar 2014 beging man gar den ersten „International Museumselfie Day“. Kennerschaftliches Genießen bei aufmerksam schreitenden Gang und bei niedriger Lautstärke geführte Diskussionen sieht sich konterkariert von Auslösegeräuschen, Digitaldisplays und herumturnen in den heiligen Museumstempeln. Darf man das überhaupt?!
Gar in den Gemälden selbst blickt etwa eine Olympia auf den von Edouard Manet porträtierten Emile Zola, Paul Gaugins Hut schmiegt sich an eine seiner Aktdarstellungen und Arendt de Gelder schmunzelt uns entgegen, während er gerade an einem Porträt arbeitet. Zufällig sind diese Kontextualisierungen ganz sicher nicht, sondern lassen sich durchaus als bedeutungsgenerierende ‚hyperimages’ lesen.
Einige Museen haben das Potential des #museumselfies bereits entdeckt und nutzen dieses im Rahmen ihres Marketings oder der Museumspädagogik: Betrachtende werden im Akt des #museumselfies oftmals selbst, ob nun mit oder ohne Intention, zu aktiven Kunstproduzenten – Digitale Medien, Smartphones und Digitalkameras stehen dabei im Zentrum eines unmittelbaren Vermittlungsprozesses zwischen Betrachter und Werk.
Nach einem Impulsvortrag wollen wir in der Abgusssammlung aktiv werden und versuchen mit den Objekten in einen Dialog zu treten und zum Abschluss Für und Wider der Selfiekultur im Museum abgewogen werden. Knipsgerät bitte selbst mitbringen – teilen ausdrücklich erlaubt! #kskhd #museumselfie

This monography presents 22 Art Formats, including the Emergency Room, Critical Run and Biennalist, which have been realized in institutions across the globe. Geoffroy defines Format Art as his artistic response to globalization, providing individuals with a replicable format for expressing themselves, thereby enabling them to respond to emergencies and real-world issues in the now.
Art historians and long-term collaborators of the artist offer in-depth analyses of Geoffroy’s artistic praxis: its mobility, flexibility and its constant quest to be “in advance” of accidents and his time. Accompanied by over 1.000 images.. A comprehensive chronology of Geoffroy’s oeuvre, detailing his many exhibitions and interventions at countless institutions and events, reveals the breadth and scope of the artist’s long-term efforts to awaken individuals to their true potential to act in the face of crises.
Geoffroy’s prolific output, so driven by a sense of urgency, has nevertheless persistently sought to inspire conviviality, generosity, and above all a sense of harmony. His work is strategic, frontal, poetic, humoristic, self- and institutionally-critical, but also deeply personal. His irrepressible energy has fueled an art movement centered around “Emergency Art,” which questions the state of delay which characterizes contemporary art and the world around it.
The subtitle of this monograph, “A Propulsive Retrospective,” refers to the “forward-looking” nature of this publication, condensing and analyzing the past, and thus advances his work in its mission of fighting apathy. The publication of the monograph will be accompanied by a series of international presentations and seminars intended to foster, explore and deepen the propositions, which can be found in Geoffroy’s oeuvre.

Welcome Film Festival. New festival concept .Copenhagen DenmarkEmergency Art
About the Welcome Film Festival
The Welcome Film Festival was founded by French-Danish conceptual artist Thierry Geoffroy, and will have its first edition from November 01-20, 2024. The festival is a new emergency format, with the emergency being the need to express oneself on important matters - political or private - as well as to connect and exchange ideas with friends and strangers alike.
During the duration of the film festival, a number of "foreigners"- artists with migrant backgrounds, residing in Denmark - will invite guests into the intimate settings of their homes to screen their own films. Questions will be raised, such as, what are the new experimental movements in film today? What is a film festival? This avant-garde event will allow audiences to familarize themselves not only with a different kind of film, but with topics that concern artists with diverse backgrounds. Along with these insights, guests will be able to experience different cultural forms of hospitality and conviviality as they travel from one private setting to the next. The festival is, therefore, as much about enjoying film as a medium, as it is about exploring the many different contexts provided by its multi-cultural hosts.
Welcome to the Welcome Film Festival!
Keep an eye out for updates on specific screening dates, and please be in touch if you are interested in joining either as a filmmaker or as a volunteer.
As a volunteer, you will have the opportunity to meet culturally diverse participants, spread the word about the film festival, work on press and documentation, help organize the festival program, social media outreach, conduct interviews with the filmmakers, as well as participate in film screenings and important discussions that might arise from them.
"THE CURATOR LIFTING RUNNING COMPETITION". Venice Biennale 2003 .pdfEmergency Art
Danish/French artist Colonel’s video from the Venice Biennale 2003 will be shown at Nikolaj’s Cinema. It presents the staging of a competition in which artists raced each other while carrying a curator on their backs. The prize was an admission ticket to the most prestigious party of the Biennale. During a major art event as the Venice Biennale, both artists and curators are subject to hidden rules and mechanisms which must be adhered to in order to obtain a good position in the hierarchy of the art world. With his energetic and humorous video Colonel focusses on these mechanisms and unveils a lobbyistic game which is not merely about creating exhibitions but also about preserving certain privileges.
On the plane:
It begins on the plane from Denmark where the art industry clique has booked the same flight. Colonel hands out flyers, already well underway with his campaign to recruit contestants for the competition.
New film concept:
Colonel uses people who simply happen to be there to film the situations which arise. In so doing they become both witnesses to and participants in the processes of uncovering the hidden mechanisms of the cultural event.
The press:
In Venice Colonel intensifies his endeavours and now involves the journalists so that they may help him spread the word about the upcoming event.
Participants for the competition:
In Venice Colonel goes on to invite artists as well as curators to be a part of the great race.
The party:
Colonel chases invitations to the most coveted parties in order to use them as the first prize of the curator lifting running competition.
The competititon:
During the competition the artist both symbolically and literally becomes the curator’s arms and legs.

The Museum as a Dating Place / Thierry Geoffroy c/o Sprengel Museum Hannover
1. ‘The Museum as a Dating Place’
Eine weiße Gartenbank, ein Strauß roter Rosen und gerahmte Fotos von sich küssenden Pärchen: Der dänisch-französische Format-Künstler Thierry
Geoffroy, der zurzeit den Projektraum der Ausstellung PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! bespielt, verwandelt das Sprengel Museum Hannover noch bis zum
30.10.2011 zu einem Treffpunkt für Verliebte: Unter dem Titel „THE MUSEUM AS A DATING PLACE“ ruft er die Besucher auf, zu zweit auf seiner so
genannten ‚Dating Bench’ Platz zu nehmen und sich zu küssen.
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! http://photographycalling-blog.de/the-museum-as-a-dating-place/

2. Thierry Geoffroy: ‘Dating Bench’
Die Idee zu dieser ungewöhnlichen Installation ist Geoffroy im Jahr 2003 gekommen, als er während seiner Ausstellung A PAIR OF GENES in der
Städtischen Galerie Ravensburg von einem Paar erfuhr, das sich nach 80 Jahren in Geoffroys Ausstellung zum ersten Mal wiederbegegnete. „Die Beiden
sahen auf einem Foto, das sie mir hinterlassen hatten, so unglaublich glücklich aus. Deshalb habe ich beschlossen, einen Teil meines Ausstellungsraumes
im Sprengel Museum Hannover zu einem ‚dating place’ zu machen, in der Hoffnung, solch wunderschöne Momente, solch eine Magie erneut
heraufzubeschwören“, sagt Geoffroy. Als Erinnerung an das Erlebnis im Jahr 2003 ist ihm ein Polaroid des Paares geblieben, das Geoffroy zusammen mit
Fotos von Paaren, die in den letzten Wochen die ‚dating bench’ im Sprengel Museum Hannover besucht haben, eingerahmt und über der Bank angebracht
hat. Auch im Sprengel Museum Hannover lässt der Künstler von jedem Paar, das sich auf die ‚dating bench’ setzt, ein Foto machen. Diese „Pärchen-
Fotos“ sind für Geoffroy nicht nur Anlass zur Reflexion über das Medium Fotografie, sondern auch gleichbedeutend mit einem persönlichen
Sichtbarmachen einer Liebesbeziehung, der „Vollendung einer gemeinsamen Entscheidung“, wie Geoffroy es nennt. Zugleich will Geoffroy mit dem

3. Ritual des Sich-auf-die-Bank-Setzens und dem sich daran anschließenden Fotografieren des Liebespaares herausfinden, ob es ihm als Künstler gelingen
kann, so etwas wie ein „Liebesritual“, wie Geoffroy es nennt, innerhalb des Museums zu kreieren. In Anspielung an seine innerhalb des restlichen
Projektraumes stattfindende, thematische Auseinandersetzung mit sozialen Netzwerken sagt Geoffroy: „Es gibt keinen Grund dafür, sich in sozialen
Netzwerken zu daten, ein Treffen innerhalb meiner Ausstellung ist eine viel bedeutendere, verbindendere Erfahrung.“ Eine Erfahrung, die jeder Besucher
noch bis einschließlich Sonntag, den 30.10.2011, selbst erleben kann – Foto inklusive.
