SUNDAY 26th JULY 2pm til 4pm
Discussion at Raven Row, 56 Artillery Lane, Spitalfields, London E1 7LS
Stemming from the recent Ultra-red 'School of Echoes' project at Raven Row in Spitalfields, participants in the workshops have been hosting discussions on Sunday afternoons on a range of differing topics.
For the final Sunday session, some of the participants will briefly share some of their sense of unease about contributing to both a gallery and its exhibition programme before opening up the room to conversation.
We invite you to come to this space and discuss many and more of the following themes:
In other cities in the world, there seems both space and practical action that that is able to bring together cultural projects with political activity that link-up and work as a resistance to local regeneration and gentrification. Increasingly in London the gallery or funded art institutions have become the host for (supposedly) interesting discussions and exhibitions around questions of political and cultural organising and not our own alternative spaces, temporary or permanent. Many people sustain themselves through work in and around these spaces (art education, publishing, exhibition projects in and out of the spaces). How does it feel to work politically from within spaces that can be described as a 'contested' spaces? Do we ever escape the vortex of accomodation and instrumentalisation that working out of these spaces often entails.
More pointedly and seeking to go beyond mere institutional critique, we ask the question why does London lack self-organised spaces where the contradictions between art, activism and gentrification can be explored from both the personal realm but at the same time expand collective working against the continuing enclosure of the city?
