10 Thoughts on Care

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This text is a performative talk that took place in the context of the conference “Handlewith Care: Culture for Social Well-being” organised by Culture Action Europe in Elefsina2023 EU Cultural Capital. It brings together different speculations on care, caring andspaces of care as starting points for further discussions on care and surroundings, social and ecological interdependencies. “Thoughts” often are passing, repetitive, incomplete, retelling words of others, haunting us otherwise while at times leave us in despair and at other times offer ways to unexpected resolutions. As a small collection of such thoughts,this text finds a way between situating and retelling, caring and curating, spaces and practices in the hope that it might point towards possible new relations between art practices and ecologies of care.

Konstnärligt arbete (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Performance and public program"Due to the circumstances of the so-called Greek crisis, people have been encouraged to become politically and artistically active in new ways, as well as more self-reliant and self-managing, which seems to suggest a shift in the social dimensions and implications of art making. The artistic collective Mkultra launches a collaborative project involving artists, architects, researchers, and civilians, its goal being to suggest a critical re-evaluation of Athens in the form of a series of alternating and ever-evolving social and cultural practices. AfterLives considers the ways in which the social imaginary shapes our vague relationship to the urban landscape and explores the potential for new critical practices. Combining theory and practice, this workshop in progress will include site-specific performances in the centre of Athens and lectures by artists and architects on the uses of urban space. The project will also include an open debate on artistic interventions in the public space. All activities will be closely linked together.This performance is predicated on a paradoxical premise. The city is haunted by all its unexplored potentialities. When night falls, a new imaginary will emerge in its clandestine and forgotten parts. Starting from the Broadway Arcade and going through stories unfolding in Ameriki Square, spectators will participate in a walking tour which resembles a half-finished film. Walking through surprising little alleys, inside yards beneath star-studded skies, children play with the future, by turns making and dissolving stories – they take charge of the city"

Commonings
- 2022
-
Konstnärligt arbete (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- What could a school look like that seeks to make both learning and unlearning a common interrelated practice? How can a space be built around care, refuge, implication and vulnerability, negotiating positions and responsibilities? How can privileges and habits of hierarchy be challenged, as well as authorship, productivity and competition? And how could such a school take place inside an institution and carve space for informal, convivial, horizontal modes of participation within it, allowing for gaps, mistakes and areas left open. In the twelve editions of the New Alphabet School, thinking of knowledge as part of the commons, the roles of curators and audience blurred and reverted in order to co-create shared space for networked knowledge. As Fred Moten and Stefano Harney suggest in The Undercommons: Fugitive Planning & Black Study, “one can only sneak into the university and steal what one can.” The New Alphabet School sought to reflect on such a suggestion via fugitive encounters and instances of study as a coming and doing together. In this final edition on COMMONINGS, the invitation is to carry on questions and incomplete dialogues, sharing practices from the previous editions, the multiple locations, and the different perspectives that emerged in the last three and a half years. By convening again, we will explore together what these practices might institute, and how they might form an ephemeral school of commonings.

Dislocating Institutions: Theses/Momentums of (Un)Making Spaces of Culture
- 2022. - Bernd Scherer

Ingår i: The New Institution. - 9783959056663 ; 25
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Cultural and academic institutions have been in crisis for quite some time now. In many cases, they still refer to a canon that has been made obsolete by global developments – in particular, by new voices from the Global South. Their modes of knowledge production operate within disciplinary bounds that can no longer cope with the Anthropocene’s radical processes of change, and their self-referential paradigms have ceased to reflect social change and the needs of society. Against this backdrop, the book discusses new counter-institutional practices and concepts, examining specific examples that reframe intellectual and pragmatic responses to concrete situations of societal conflict. These examples furthermore demonstrate a new connection between social, aesthetic and academic forms of work based on integrative, multi-perspectival approaches that transcend existing divides.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- About the book:Theatre Institutions in Crisis examines how theatre in Europe is beset by a crisis on an institutional level and the pressing need for robust research into the complex configuration of factors at work that are leading to significant shifts in the way theatre is understood, organised, delivered, and received.Balme and Fisher bring together scholars from different disciplines and countries across Europe to examine what factors can be said to be most common to the institutional crisis of European theatre today. The methods employed are drawn from systems theory, social-scientific approaches, economics and statistics, theatre and performance, and other interpretative approaches (hermeneutics), and labour studies.

Hills and Fields
- 2022

Konstnärligt arbete (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- A city wide two week public program"A peripatetic public program on Hills and Fields of Athens invite us to examine together the ephemeral habitations in public space under the current circumstances and explore the possibilities for intervention, resistance and joy. To reflect upon the emergent urban geographies and hegemonies and rethinking the relationship between art practice and mental health, architecture and pedagogy, poetry and urban praxis. A call for impromptu collective explorations in the public and in-between spaces of the city.Performances, actions, discussions, talks, readings, picnic, interventions, walks and workshops for children and adults, seek to create a city-wide ephemeral intervention on Hills and Fields”; a call for repeated experimentations on the limits and uses of what is considered as the collective/shared spaces of the city."
