2 With the ECC project we bring in the voice of European students in the poitica debate on the identity of the European Union. I am sure that the creative process of art production in which students from a academic discipines took part wi enrich the often abstract poitica discussion on European citizenship. Achim Meyer auf der Heyde, Consortium Leader of the ECC Project and Secretary Genera of the Deutsches Studentenwerk ST CONFLICt CONFLICt diaogue IDENTITY Art moves freey, it creates a freedom in which we find the space to think, to get inspired, to criticay refect. The artist functions as an in-between: free to view reaity in every perspective. Art is a powerfu too. In this project, we hand that too to students, the future. As they wi earn to understand it, they wi create a new focus on the reaity of citizenship.the project has a unique and innovative character as it is positioned at the interface between art, art education and the civi sector. Marijke Seresia, Secretary Genera of the European Counci for Student Affairs (ECSTA). With the support of the Cuture Programme of the European Union.

INTRO The European Citizen Campus (ECC) has been carried out by 10 universities and student service organisations, from six different countries that a possess a ong-term expertise in the promotion of student cutura activities. It highighted the vita roe of these organisations in the deveopment of a European identity amongst young peope by fostering student art projects. EEC started a creative process on different vision(s) of the European citizenship concept seen by student eyes with the purpose to stimuate debate on this issue with the wider audience. The project core was the estabishment of an internationa art mobiity and exchange programme that woud give 144 students from different academic discipines and 12 professiona artists the opportunity to visuaize their approach to European citizenship. The creative work has been carried out in trans-discipinary aboratories that were set up at university sites in Begium, France, Germany Itay, Luxembourg, Portuga. Each aboratory was composed of four students from each consortium country and ead by two internationay renowned artists from two different art genres. The aboratories were dedicated to thematic variations of citizenship, namey identity, roots, home, freedom, confict and diaogue. The works of art have been presented at oca/regiona exhibitions in the invoved countries as we as at a main European exposition that wi be shown at the occasion of the fina dissemination conference in Antwerp on the 25-27th of June Home FREEDOM roots roots Cataogue 3

4 LABO BELGIUM Laboratory 1 Identity examines the own unique cutura identity, shares this and through diaogue questions, understands what one can earn about it and from each other. Marijke Seresia, Secretary Genera of the European Counci for Student Affairs (ECSTA). IDENTITY Whether nationa, reigious, ethnica, territoria, economica or other, identity has been the prominent eement and more than often the instigator of serious upheavas in the word. Certain modes of identity can indeed be dangerous. Every time identity is determined on the basis of a singe form of affiiation, danger arises, and peope are ed into fanaticism. There exists an unnecessary paranoid attempt of its preservation which has nothing to do with its constant exporation. It is often presumed that identity is something fixed that you get at birth and anything past that woud be treated as treason. In fact, it is the actua opposite of that: identity is a constant state of evoution. Identity is not a static essence or reaity. It is a substance, a dynamic reaity and therefore constitutes a repertoire. Since it is not a homogenous, continuous, univoca eement, it can ony exist in a dynamic, diaectic ogic of ever-changing difference. As the phiosopher Chares Tayor once stated: What we are can never sove the probem of our condition, because we are aways changing and becoming different. Neither consoidating (in terms of ony one group/ nationaity), nor dropping your identity (in exchange for more consumption) seems a heathy affair. Identity is a constant quest. Every identity impies a diaogue, or: giving up who one is. Confrontation makes identity possibe. Identity gains recognition in the pubic space through forms of cutura mediation and (artistic) expression. This is how we approached and structured this workshop. This is how we understood our engagement towards the other and Europe.

Key Schacht examines how isoated fragments of reaity can acquire the maximum meaning in a minima staging.

9 LABO Luxembourg 16 LABOuxEmbourg diaogue The artistic fieds of music and dance have been used to express the idea of diaogue. Music and dance have aways been cosey reated with each other and been in a constant diaogue. The pianist Cathy Krier and the dancer and choreographer Gianfranco Ceestino, eaders of the workshop, were confronted with the different eves of diaogues they iked to approach and express with the students of the participating European universities, discovering & exporing the mutipe faces of their personaity. Their aim was to expore the reationship between music and dance, composer and performer, performer and audience. The music of European composers from different periods served as a starting point. Students experienced the musica interpretation of these masterpieces, the deveopment of the choreographic response to the seected music and the effect that the choices made exercise on the pubic. European Citizens are not fairy tae figures. In fact, the sooner we reaize that our European commitments hep our personaity to get rid of its imitations or to move to a higher eve of inteectua and cutura diaogue with other European Citizens, the better for ourseves. I strongy beieve that cutura diversity and diversified cutura expressions are among the most wonderfu and precious treasures of mankind buit up in the Curricuum Vitae of human deveopment and that cutura diversity creates visionary identities, which distinguish one nation or ethnic group from another and makes our word and each individua human being so unique.

12 DANCE music Working with Cathy Krier and in my case, since I was in the dance group, especiay with Gianfranco Ceestino, was a very enriching earning experience. Athough we a had different cutura backgrounds and athough not everybody had the same fuency in Engish, dancing, paying music and generay being invoved in a mutua creative process immediatey estabished an intimate connection and understanding among a the workshop participants. Without even intentionay trying to do so, we engaged in a transcutura diaogue through music and movement. In today s highy rationaised society, we tend to underestimate the powerfu subconscious knowedge of our bodies and are unaware of its potentia in enabing eye to eye conversation and cross-border partnerships. Vaérie Reding(LUX) For me as one of the non-arts students, the ECC-project was an impressive experiment. I met open-minded artists and earnt beside motivated, as we as determined peope that we a shared the same passion for. A of us had his/her part in the coaboration and within ony one week, the diaogue between music and dance evoved into an intricatey intertwined performance: different characters fourished together under mutua efforts.

14 LABO Germany HOME The artistic fieds of painting and cross-over have been used to express the idea of Home. But what is home? Is it the pace where one is born? Is it the pace where one ives? Or is it an imaginary kingdom of wishes and visions? A workshop by Michae Kant expored these questions in various artistic ways. Participants have used the Institute of Fine Arts (Institut der Bidenden Kunste) studios ranging from the painting studio to the scupture workshop and the photography studio to the video editing room. Participants coud decide on a certain technique, or use a cross-over of different methods and materias. Participants had brought a itte piece of Home with them such as photos, texts or objects.

33 Cayworks Initiay I thought that the artistic method was very simiar to the scientific one, more than we imagine. I ended the week seeing this thought confirmed. During the workshop I saw as the aternation of a structured process and freedom of movement are the key ingredients for the success of a work, whatever it is. Roberta Travagiati (IT) Cayworks Cayworks Once they asked the participants to produce a scupture of cay under the topic confict. The participants put much effort into it and photographs show that they created wonderfu pieces. However, after the unch break, the artists asked the participants to destroy their pieces of art. Thus the participants got into an inner confict. 64 LABOITALIE LABOfrance 65
