6 sp. Art, Market and Commons (B-LUCA-K51281)
Inhoud
In this master seminar the focus is on a collective research of critical practices and perspectives related to the creative industries and art markets, with special attention to the notions of the commons. We reflect on the impact of neoliberal politics on the arts and cultural policy, also in Belgium and Flanders. The seminar also introduces a frame of reference to get an understanding of the notion of the "commons" as a popular concept in certain artistic circles. This notion is associated with self-governance, solidarity and new forms of living together and the believe that peer-to-peer relationships will produce new modes of production and new relations of production. We critically explore artistic responses and experiments that react to these effects of marketization by reading texts, visiting . In that sense we explore together concrete examples of art collectives who try to create more sustainable, self-organized and self-regulating modes of collaboration and organisation. We discuss strategies in works and projects of artists such as L'Asilo, Robin Vanbesien, Ronny Heiremans and Katleen Vermeir, and organizations such as Timelab, Future Farmers, SOTA, Caveat, Ruangrupa or The Land Foundation, ...
The students will engage in fieldwork related to collective organisation forms in the arts and organise a public conversation or presentation related to these research trajectories, in which they engage in a dialogue about these projects with peers. The students also work on individual or collective (audio)visual responses to these trajectories in which they relate these insights to their own practice.
