A Catalogue
System |
||
We
add the first letter of the other participants surname to the group's
name, forming constellations like FAWE, FAWPM, FALL, FAKP; subtitles
for cataloguing the works. An important part of FA+ strategy is the
flexibility in front of each project; the concepts, the people we
work with, the places, the materials etc, are always open to change.
We try to avoid to be prisoners of any dogma - even ours. |
||
"Minor" works, like collaboration in low impact shows, furniture design, design of magazine's covers, posters for events or music groups, etcetera, are not in the list to reduce it's length and make it less tedious. |

| Motivation | ||
If the value of art and artists is judged based upon the degree
of the ability to communicate and the power to inspire, then
FA+ are in the heavyweight class. |
