Working Utopias
Christina Ciupke, Anke Strauß
Research project 2016 to 2018
Public Sympòsium: 26 and 27 October 2018, Open Spaces # 1, Tanzfabrik Berlin
Working Utopias is a research project of choreographer Christina Ciupke and organisation researcher Anke Strauß. Engaging with utopia and work, it focuses on the social side of artistic work. In the last two years, they have thus visited various artist-led organizations and initiated dialogues on collaboration, solidarity, situatedness and the conditions of their work lives as artists. Sharing turned out to operate as a utopian principle in need of constant negotiation. The sympósion revolved around the principle of sharing by gathering people around a table, in a constantly changing landscape, for conversations on desires, dreams and longings for diverse relationships that shape and are shaped by their work lives.
