Open call for artists, critical writers, activists, and poets to present their work, share their ideas or develop their projects around re-imagining Europe and basic questions of decision-making.<\/p>\n

Europe \u00e2\u20ac\u201c whether conceived as a political, economic, or cultural entity \u00e2\u20ac\u201c can no longer be taken for granted, and not only its future, but also its present form is in imminent question.<\/p>\n
Re-image, re-invent, or re-envision Europe!<\/p>\n
We are looking for: utopias, dystopias, imaginative cartographies, speculative political visions\/theories, future Europes, past\/present Europes reimagined, imaginary\/real borders, etc.<\/p>\n
How do we stabilize unstable situations, political, social as well as artistic ones? What can politics learn from art, as processes of destabilisation are critical in the art experience? Is choice possible in a world of stable-unstable politics? Is there good or bad stability? How do we mediate between destabilisation, multiple identities, interpretation, choice and change?<\/p>\n
We are looking for: models\/theories of decision-making, speculative forms of art in governance of art and politics, critical models\/theories of de\/stabilisation, choice, change, multistability, fractivity, self-reflection, and the like…<\/p>\n
The format of participation is fully open. We invite poetic and artistic sketches, as well as political and\/or radical drafts. Please include in your proposal a short description\/sketch of your work, and a short bio.<\/p>\n
