From the pressrelease:

New technologies appear to make faraway or global connections easier then ever before; but how close does contact get without physical proximity?

With Long Distance Call HotelMariaKapel aims to investigate these new possibilities and their limits by focussing on instruction works in contemporary art: works developed by one artist and realized, over distance, by another. More specifically HMK wants to find out how intimate, intruding or locally embedded such new works can become. In other words: can collaborations overcome physical distances, and expand our creative possibilities?
