(exhibition and cultural events in Berlin 11.5.-15.7.10, Leipzig 19.7.-21.7.10, Mannheim 27.9.-2.10.10) *Fiodorova Tatiana: Moldova is a small country and very few people know about it in the West. I wonder what stimulated your interest in our country and our culture?*** *Katharina KOCH**: *The Koordinierung Ostmittel- und Südosteuropa am Museum Europäischer Kulturen Berlin (*Coordinator for Centraleastern and Southeastern Europe at the Museum of European Cultures*) Berlin focus` in the frame of exhibitions and cultural events on different regions and countries in Eastern Europe in order to advance the exchange and dialogue between people, institutions and organizations of those countries with the ones from Western Europe. As Moldova is one of those countries which is still like a “white spot” on the mental map of most habitants in the western hemisphere, although Moldova is one of the closest neighbors of the European Union, the project MOLDOVA*mobil *was trying to put some afford to change this. Our approach is to give some insights in social, cultural and political situations and developments in Moldova, which are not representative of course, but instead point different perspectives of people from Moldova on their country – through interviews, photos, films, quotation<http://dict.leo.org/ende?lp=ende&p=Ci4HO3kMAA&search=quotation&trestr=0x8001>s etc. Another intention is the deconstruction of some stereotypes and clichés about Moldova and Eastern European countries in general (prostitution, sex trafficking, high rate of criminality, uncivilized…) but without disguising real problems of the country and its society like the high migration rate and the still difficult economical, social and political situation. In the long run MOLDOVA*mobil* likes to develop a continuous exchange and dialogue between academics, theorists, artists, activists and social, political and cultural institutions from Moldova and Germany. Moreover it intends to enlarge a broader network in the European context. read more http://artploshadka.wordpress.com/2010/09/08/artploshadka-moldovamobil-–-a-project-on-culture-politics-and-everyday-life-in-moldova-interview-with-katharina-koch-otilia-babara-vladimir-us/ ................................................................................................ artplosha...@gmail.com http://artploshadka.wordpress.com
