The Rise of the Common City
On the culture of commoning
2022 || Paperback || Louis Volont e.a. || ASP - Academic and Scientific Publishers
Artists and creative workers have long been attracted to urban environments. Yet the ‘creative city’ of the 21st century comes with its own pitfalls. From precarity at the level of the worker to gentrification at the level of the city: the creative engine starts to sputter. Therefore, after or even against the creative city, this book explores the rise of the ‘common city’. What is the value of commoning for cultural practices in urban contexts? The volume defends the hypothesis that ...

Antennae Mobile Autonomy
exercises in artists'self-organization beyond individualism
2015 || Paperback || Nico Dockx e.a. || Valiz
Neoliberalism has taken autonomous professional values and labour firmly in its grasp. Traditional forms of employment are replaced with post-Fordist conditions in which work has become freelance, flexible, mobile, project-based, hybrid and temporary. This way of working is not new to artists. They have seen themselves confronted with these precarious conditions since many years. Mobile Autonomy detects what modes of economy and different innovative working modalities artists and other artist...

Reclaiming time and space

Antennae Teaching Art in a Neoliberal Age
realism versus cynicism
2022 || Paperback || Pascal Gielen e.a. || Samenwerkende Uitgevers VOF
In de meeste landen ontsnapt het kunstonderwijs niet aan een grootschalige reorganisatie. Onderwijsinstellingen moeten zich steeds meer als ondernemingen opstellen, die om de beste of meeste leerlingen concurreren en hun doel en resultaten in management- en financiële termen uitdrukken. Het onderwijsveld is kortom een markt geworden. Of er daarbinnen nog ruimte voor kunst is, is een belangrijke vraag.
In Teaching Art in the Neoliberal Realm wordt onderzocht wat de effecten van deze opstelli...

Monoculture
Society and the Aesthetics of Ambiguity
2020 || Paperback || Nav Haq e.a. || Valiz
In The Aesthetics of Ambiguity: Understanding and Addressing Monoculture betogen Pascal Gielen en Nav Haq dat multiculturalisme paradoxaal genoeg gebaseerd is op monocultureel denken. De publicatie verkent deze paradox door monocultuur in verschillende hedendaagse contexten te onderzoeken. Het boek wil monocultuur analyseren met behulp van een veelzijdige benadering, door historische, sociale, culturele en ideologische perspectieven samen te brengen. Kunst kan daarbij zowel dienen als middel ...

Community Art
the politics of trespassing
2022 || Paperback || paul de Bruyne e.a. || Samenwerkende Uitgevers VOF
Every kind of change belongs to a form of community art, stelt de Italiaanse filosoof Antonio Negri. Het is de omkering van het gebruikelijke adagium dat community art een deel kan zijn van gewenste maatschappelijke veranderingen. Negri stelt niet alleen de community art, haar voorstanders en critici voor een uitdagende verantwoordelijkheid, maar iedereen in de samenleving die verandering wil teweeg brengen op sociaal, politiek, economische, technologisch of ecologisch vlak. Artistiek én c...

Nearness
Art and Education After Covid-19
2020 || Paperback || Marlies De Munck e.a. || Valiz
The Covid-19 crisis teaches us how priceless human nearness is. Art and education can't do without it either. Like works of art, people lose their aura when kept at digital arm's length. Art is lifeless when it can't resonate with bodies. In Nearness, Marlies De Munck and Pascal Gielen diagnose a new reality. Only culture marks the difference between surviving and living.
Nearness is also available in Dutch as a separate publication with the title Nabijheid.
