Uefa08 – Confed09: experimental projects
In 2008 and 2009 Walter Stach and Marcus Neustetter have been experimenting with public paintings and drawings in response to the Uefa 08 and Confed Cup 09. These have manifested in collective performative production, publicly displayed paintings, site-specific installations and a book of drawings.

Traces – Cradle of Humankind
For an event of Visi Magazine and Arts on Main (Johannesburg) at the Nirox Foundation (Cradle of Humankind), Bronwyn Lace and Marcus Neustetter creatively responded to the experience of the landscape through large scale drawings, translating a Google Earth Trace image into a landscape intervention. Using wooden poles and white ribbon, the artists raised the “drawing” off the ground at different heights, evoking excavation site grids and geological dig demarcations.

C30
In collaboration with David Andrew, the C30 Project initiative began in early 2007 at the P.J. Simelane Secondary School in Dobsonville, Soweto, and has resulted in a series of creative interventions within the school space itself and then at the Sandton Civic Gallery, Johannesburg (October 2007), the Goethe Institut, Johannesburg (October 2008) and in the White Sea space at Konstfack Stockholm (March 2009) . At the school and in the exhibition spaces the project introduced a series of physical and metaphorical disruptions which prompted questions and actions around the relationship between learning and art practice.
