Summer School of the Innovative Training Programme FEINART.
In times of multiple planetary crises, it is essential to fundamentally re-explore the human relationship to the world and to gain a new understanding of the human/non-human condition. Worldwide there is a growing need for places of alternative theoretical and practical work where new epistemes, new forms of living together in solidarity and new social infrastructures can be explored.
Building on Socially Engaged Art the Summer School of the Innovative Training Programme FEINART invites researchers, curators, practitioners, artists and advanced students at the Master level and PhD candidates to participate in two days of intense discussions and exchange. During this two-day event, developments and theoretical approaches emerging around Socially Engaged Art will be discussed and reconsidered.
In lectures, discussion panels, and parallel workshops, activists and internationally renowned experts invite to take part in workshops on the topics of collective learning, institution making, community building and local knowledge production, self-governance and commoning, as well as exploring social ecologies.
Presenters are, among others, Fahyma Alnablsi, Massimo de Angelis, Margit Czenki, Maria Hlavajova, Elke Krasny, Nomusa Makhubu, Marina Naprushkina, Ahmet Öğüt, Carolina Rito, John Roberts, Christoph Schäfer, Karen van den Berg, Jeanne van Heeswijk, and Mi Yo.
