Under the title Fermenting: Perspectives on the "East", the curators of the have developed a project for the Rapid Response area of the GRASSI Museum.

In three chapters (TRANSFORMING, SPECULATING, FERMENTING), the contributions tell of developments in an understanding of "East", while focusing on the processes of preserving, transforming and speculating, that are inherent to the cultural practice of fermenting. Artistic positions, some of which were represented at the intervention in Bitterfeld-Wolfen and deal with potentials of transformation, will show their work at the Rapid Response area. Thoughts on fermenting and perspectives on "East" are gathered in an archive that is accessible in the museum space. Thoughts and stories about individual objects in the collection are integrated into fermentation processes in the same way as a disused exhibition space in the museum, soil, fruit, plants or memorabilia.
