Claudia Grimm presents the three-part exercise set by the collective DARTS (disappearing artists) in the form of live instructions for use. The nine artists initially developed it for their own needs, to "enrich their days, their art and their bodies", as they say. Recently, they have also made it available to the public.
The so-called Archifundus is the heart of the program. It consists of 3 small containers. "Performable material" is collected in them, always in minimal formats.
This can relate to art, but can also refer to public space, the household or any other workplace.
The Archifundus is suitable as a basis for the exercise program because every access to its content requires the user to make their own current use of the material. The collective's vision is to use the Archifundus and its training units to create a "performative web that incorporates everything that concerns us."
