Curated by Ravi Agarwal (Delhi) and Till Krause with Nina Kalenbach (Hamburg)
 
 
 
== Background ==
 
Project Y is a public art and outreach project initiated by the Ministry of Culture, Hamburg, and carried out in the framework of “Germany and India 2011-2012: Infinite Opportunities”. It will be held in the cities of Delhi and Hamburg between October 16th and November 23rd, 2011, almost in parallel.
 
 
 
 
 
The collaborative project is centered on the idea of creating ecological sustainable rivers in cities. Both the Elbe and the Yamuna are central to Hamburg’s and Delhi’s futures and there are various, very involved discussions around them, intensified by current challenges facing water issues. There is great public interest in the subject, even though the dialogues may be different in each place. It is expected to be one of the prime and most visible public projects during the project series “Germany and India 2011-2012”, and also coincides with the India week in Hamburg, celebrating Hamburg having been nominated as the European Green Capital 2011.
 
 
 
==The Project ==
 
The key component of the project will be public art projects on the banks of the river Yamuna in Delhi and the river Elbe in Hamburg.
 
 
 
==Curators==
 
 
 
Two curators, Ravi Agarwal from Delhi and Till Krause with Nina Kalenbach from Hamburg, have been invited to co-curate the project. Ravi Agarwal is a well-acclaimed Indian artist and also a practicing environmentalist. Till Krause is a well know land artist from Hamburg who also runs an art-space.
 
 
 
==The Artists==
 
Acclaimed Indian and German artists have been invited to participate in producing on-site installations, which will be on show for two weeks in each city. They will deal with the discourse around the river. Each artist has conceptualized a work that highlights important issues related to the rivers – be they ecological, developmental, socio-cultural, or religious.<br>In Delhi, the participating artists are '''Asim Waqif''', '''Atul Bhalla''', '''Gigi Scaria''', and '''Sheba Chhachhi''' from India and '''Nana Petzet''' and '''Jochen Lempert''' from Germany, with contributions by '''Vivan Sundaram''' and '''Till Krause'''.
 
 
 
 
 
In Hamburg, the participating artists are '''Atul Bhalla, Navjot Altaf, Ravi Agarwal, Sheba Chhachhi,''' and '''Vivan Sundaram''' from India and from Germany, '''Anna Möller''', '''Jochen Lempert''', '''Ines Lechleitner''' and many more artists from Germany and other countries.
 
 
 
 
 
There will also be a Elbe/Yamuna show within an art exhibition at both places.
 
 
 
==The Site for Project Y in Delhi==
 
<ul>
 
<li>DDA Silver Jubilee Park</li>
 
<li>Geeta Colony (across Silver Jubilee Park) </li>
 
</ul>
 
 
 
The site has been carefully chosen as it gives an easy access to the river Yamuna, thus allowing maximum engagement with the river as well as both its banks.

==An Eco-friendly Project==
 
The power requirements of the project will be met by use of solar energy and eco-friendly fuel. All the material used by the artists to produce their works will be eco-friendly and most of it is also recycled material.
