ON THE RIVER •wiki• Main Page

From On the River

Civic Studio uses visual art to investigate public life in specific contexts. Our most recent project On the River took place at the Interurban (Gillett) Bridge along the Grand River from September 1st to December 19th, 2009.

We posted some of our work on this web site. Content includes what we found and made about this place. Research includes background information that informed the project. We invite you to join in the project by adding to the site.

Items of interest may be copied to the more comprehensive wiki project Viget.org.

Open Studio Assignments

We began our work with some assignments to make, gather, or do things along the river. Please follow our progress and join in with your own results. Open Studio Assignments is inspired by the work of Mark Dion and the Learning to Love You More Project.
