What does it mean to be hospitable, make
alliances, or navigate conflicts in the sphere of contemporary art?
As part of the Art Space Unlimited project, we implemented
various community-based and participatory programs together with four
socially and politically engaged independent art spaces - OFF-Biennale,
Budapest, La Escocesa, Barcelona, Shtatëmbëdhjetë / Foundation
17, Pristina and tranzit.cz, Prague. It is our shared desire to open our
art institutions toward people who, for various reasons, have difficult,
complicated, disabled, or limited access to art, whether as creators,
participants, or viewers.
As a conclusion of our eighteen-month cooperation, OFF-Biennale hosted
all international partners in Budapest and presented the book We Cannot
Say That We Have Arrived Somewhere, Yet Neither Can We Say That We Haven’t—A
Glossary of Commoning Terms. The publication is available in six
languages. It attempts to provide hands-on and personal reflections on
such topics as emotional labour, navigating differences or self-empowerment.
The book is freely accessible and downloadable, both as an e-book and
in a printable format (Creative Commons license) on https://emotional-labor.eu/
