Fall 2021: Governance
SELF-ORGANIZATION & INSTITUTIONS
In Fall 2021, Movement V & VI will collectively explore issues of governance delving into self-organization and institutions.
MOVEMENT V: SELF-ORGANIZATION
(SEPTEMBER 6–OCTOBER 24, 2021)
Participants: Nuno Cassola, Joey Lubitz, Harry Isra Muhammad, Aslı Özdoyuran, Margarita Pita, Paz Ponce
MOVEMENT VI: INSTITUTIONS
(NOVEMBER 1–DECEMBER 19, 2021)
Participants: Marta Keil, Vishal Kumaraswamy, Vladimir Miller, Moad Musbahi, virgil b/g taylor, Nikolas Ventourakis
During Movements V & VI, we will look together into issues of governance from two entry points, self-organization and institutions, as two sides of the same coin that coexist in interdependence. How do we organize ourselves and make decisions and how do the forms of social organization that we create allow for new spaces of care-full listening and participation rather than representation? How and by whom does responsibility get distributed and shared and how can institutions successfully embody non-hierarchical and open processes and become accountable to the artists and communities they are set up to serve? By assembling the practices, knowledges and habits that we exercise and perform within more or less established structures, we will explore what modes of governance we have at hand. Rather than anticipating future forms of organizing, how do we participate in instituting our present and what kind of new openings can we generate to constitute a ‘we’?
