Syllabus Reading Group #9: Care Networks

Syllabus Reading Group #9
donderdag 28 april 19.00 - 20.30

In deze editie van de reading group bespreken we experimenten met care networks. We lezen fragmenten uit "A Politics of network-families? Precarity, crisis and careful experimentations " van Manuela Zechner, uit het Nanopolitics Handbook (2013).

Hosts: Barbara Mahlknecht, Sarah O'Rourke, Jesse Jones

In het engels, online

Sinds 2020 organiseert Kunsthal Gent de Syllabus Reading Group rond het werk 'Syllabus' van de Ierse kunstenaar Jesse Jones: een monumentaal gordijn met de arm van Silvia Federici, dat een ruimte creëert voor (activistisch) samenzijn.

Dit seizoen wordt georganiseerd in samenwerking met Jesse Jones en feministisch onderzoekster Barbara Mahlknecht, rond het thema zorg - van zorgarbeid tot institutionele intimiteiten. Hoe creëren we een cultuur van zorg in onze alledaagse ontmoetingen en sociale reproducties?

We komen online samen, eens per maand op donderdagavond, vanaf 24 februari. We lezen en bespreken elke maand een nieuwe tekst. Tegen het einde van elke bijeenkomst stellen we verschillende teksten voor en beslissen samen wat we de volgende keer gaan lezen. Je kan ook gewoon aanschuiven en meeluisteren. Welkom!

ZOMER 2022
De Syllabus-leesgroepen werken toe naar een live Syllabus Summer School Retreat, in juli 2022 in Kunsthal Gent. Deze live summer school wil de vraag stellen: Hoe kunnen we terugkeren naar een ruimte van gedeelde culturele gemeenschappelijkheid na twee jaren van isolatie?
