Artists as a facilitator in Graz.

We are happy, that Visual Assembly as a part of the steirischer herbst was invited to be a part of the conference hosted by Graz’s legendary activist institution Forum Stadtpark. Titled Es könnte anders sein – Konferenz für Praktische Kritik – Utopie (It could be different – Conference for Practical Criticism – Utopia), the conference will feature participants such as Silvia Federici and Alexander Neupert-Doppler, among others, who will investigate the perspective for concrete and radical change today, examining the notion of “utopia” itself. They ask whether the emergence of new commons, radical redefinition of animal-human relations, or a world without racism are really that hard to imagine.
