Since 1993 and on invitation from art institutions, the artist group WochenKlausur develops concrete proposals aimed at small, but nevertheless effective improvements to socio-political deficiencies. Proceeding even further and invariably translating these proposals into action, WochenKlausur sees artistic creativity no longer as a formal act but as an intervention into society.
Until today over 30 projects have been carried out internationally. The first project in Vienna, Austria succeeded in making medical care available to the homeless. Since then, a mobile clinic has treated six hundred homeless people per month free of charge. An invitation from the Zurich Shedhalle followed, where WochenKlausur established a pension for drug-addicted women. Further projects have been implemented among others in Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Portugal, Netherland and USA.
On invitation of The Israeli Center for Digital Art the artist group WochenKlausur realized the project Chance for a Change in Jessy Cohen, Holon during their visit in January 2012.
