Case histories
In 1996 Scryption museum asked us to do research and data collection
for an international network of museums. Later on we undertook the
promotion of the exhibition A is an
ox upside down, on the origin of writing and the history of our
alphabet produced by Scryption.
We successfully approached the Barcelona based Fundació "la
Caixa". The Catalan foundation obtained the rights to adapt the
exhibition and asked Díptic and Scryption's director to do this.
Our assignment was to adapt the exhibition for a Catalan and Spanish
audience to be shown at Fundació "la Caixa"'s cultural centres.
In particular, we were asked to:
- develop a travelling format for the exhibition
- redesign the exhibition concept
- select original artefacts for the historic element
- select contemporary artists for the artistic element
- write copy for the catalogue
- write the exhibition texts
As commissioners, we researched archaeological and art museums,
galleries and private collections in several European countries, giving
special attention to The Netherlands, Catalonia and Spain, to find all
the exhibits. The new exhibition, The
Traces of the Alphabet. Writing and Art, was shown in four cities
between 1997 and 1998.
Recently, as a follow up to the project on the origin of writing,
Fundació "la Caixa" has commissioned a new version of the
exhibition for its centres in the Balearic Islands. New research in
Balearic museums has been done in order to interpret the history of our
alphabet in the light of artefacts found in the islands. The exhibition
will tour during 2001and 2002.
In 2000, we presented the exhibition concept to Unesco Centrum
Nederland to mark the International Literacy Day in The Netherlands.
Unesco are now our partners in developing a new version of our
exhibition. The project will be enriched with a new element devoted to
world literacy. In its new format and title The Travelling Alphabet, the
exhibition will travel to the 12 Dutch provinces from September 2001
until December 2003.
In 2001 the local government of Eivissa and Formentera, the Consell
Insular, approached us to acquire some unpublished material from the The
Netherlands Photo Archives (NFA) in Rotterdam. We have advised the
Consell in the purchase of pictures by the Dutch photographer Cas
Oorthuys (1908-1975), one of the most important representatives of the
Dutch New Photography. His large collection of pictures of Eivissa and
Formentera taken in the early 1960 will play a key role in the Consell's
new Image and Sound Archive.
Given the importance of this unpublished material kept by NFA,
Díptic encouraged Fundació "la Caixa" in Mallorca to
co-operate with the Consell Insular in the organisation of an exhibition
of Oorthuys' work: A Portrait in
Black and White. We have co-ordinated this exhibition which opened
in Palma in March 2003. Later, during 2003 and 2004, it will tour to
various towns in the Balearic Islands.
