What is PRR?
Referring to the definition of the archive, PRR is a non-archive, with no historical and objective references. Created by Pavilion - journal for politics & culture, PRR grows organically helped by the additions and by the research travels. The concept of traveling PRR is not to move the resources but to make PRR extractions by enlarging it and moving in the new spaces that will represent a starting point for the new PRR, based on local needs and context. PRR is equally an inspirational zone and an action one, whitch contains research and documentation archives of actions/activities and curatorial research files. The content of the room (as a permanent project with in the PAVILION centre space, and also as an itinerary project) comprises approximately 1200 (and growing) instruments of research coming from different fields of theory.
SECTIONS
1. DOCUMENTARY section (documentation of the organization actions organized on a Macmini with images, films, websites, equipped with an access interface ). Here you will also find research files organized on topics by the curators which worked with us.
