Syllabus Reading Group #17

Welcome to the Syllabus Reading Group, organised around the work 'Syllabus' by Irish artist Jesse Jones: a monumental curtain with the arm of Silvia Federici that creates a space for activist gatherings. The starting point is reading together: we read texts by Silvia Federici and other authors in line with her activist-feminist practice.

This year, we will organise the Reading Group on the 1st Thursday of each month, from 17:30 to 19:00. We meet live in the Syllabus space and there is also the possibility to join online. Be very welcome and bring books or texts you would like to read or discuss together!

Info
  • Live gathering in Syllabus (possibility to join online)

  • Language: Dutch and English
