Ubani Tbilisi Cityscape Research Center in collaboration with the Nonument Group is announcing an open call for participation in a research project Nonuments of Tbilisi.
The project will be realized in 2 phases, starting with research trips to selected Nonuments with Martin Bricelj Baraga, a co-founder of the Nonument Group. In one-day sightseeing around Tbilisi, Baraga will present the idea of Nonuments, the methodology of Nonument Group, and an in situ exhibition of previous Nonuments from Central Europe. This initiative will continue in September with a workshop on these selected Nonuments (and some others that we will decide on collectively).
