ART WORKS! European Culture of Resistance and Liberation.
What does resistance mean today? What is the difference between historical partisan resistance and everyday resistance practices? In contemporary cultural and artistic production, what forms of resistance are present? And as artists, artists, cultural producers, how can we inhabit, perform and negotiate resistant positions?
Through practical and collaborative activities, the workshop will explore a multiplicity of artworks and materials, such as sound testimonies and texts from different historical and geopolitical contexts, to reflect on the concept of resistance. The workshop is the first stage of the European ART WORKS project! European Culture of Resistance and Liberation which will officially launch in the first months of 2020
