> Culture(s) of Copy is about the phenomenon of the copy as a global
> cultural strategy. The discussion of intellectual property, as it has
> already been treated in diverse ways, is only one angle from which one
> can approach the topic. The 'copy' here is understood positively as
> a remake, a cultural translation and an achievement ("You have to copy
> a master to become a master", "The best way to appreciate a master
> is to copy him"). The phenomenon of the copy is seen as a rewarding
> opportunity to understand and reflect on cultural differences beyond the
> rather poor terms of a dichotomy of East and West.
>
> The works presented can be divided into different topics
> ('Archive', 'Theme Park', 'Claim of authenticity by
> media represented reality', etc.). Some works use the stocks of art > history. Existing artefacts of the economy or art are treated as an > archive that one can make use of. The repetition of known formats and
> content is not for the sake of repetition, but for the sake of a new > definition. The maxim of originality is thereby deliberately ignored - > in the age of "copy and paste", the creation of the NEW is bound by > repetition, variation and cultural translation. Other themes include the > process of copying itself and the relationship between context and
> content. Many of the works deal with the question of authenticity in a

> world in which reality is mediated mainly through the mass media.
