Pool XIII: Dark Assemblages / Translocal Practices
In this special project starting in Lisbon we will together with curator Margarida Mendes explore situated neocolonial entanglements. Addressing Lisbon’s broadly undebated relation with its mercantile past, the project creates a space of interaction with the city’s history via the reflection of ancient and modern forms of colonizing politics that create breaches of inequality and perpetuate exploitation regimes.
The days in Lisbon will comprise walks, moments of collective discussion and reflection, visits, performances, film screenings, as well as moments of personal dérive. In debate will be the ancient and modern slavery routes of Lisbon from its imperial times to the recent gentrification projects; the promotion of extractive politics in regards to resource extraction and the rise of the blue economy; urbanist practices of zoning and the ghosts of the colonial apartheid in Lisbon.

Lernziele / Kompetenzen | The project is investigating how artistic, cultural and political practices can contribute in making translocal entanglements negotiable within the angles of postcolonial and techno-ecological reflections. How are global or historical (e.g. colonial) forms situated in the present? How can I make these forms, materials, ghosts available? Artists, a journalist, a rapper, a sociologist and an activist are invited to present their methodologies. We want to discuss their methods and approaches and relate them to our own artistic practice. |
