Lecture on "Practising resistance - Thoughts on creative dissent in the public sphere" at the Social Context conference at the University of Copenhagen, September 26 2013
Publik is an artist and curator based organisation, carrying out art projects in the public space of Copenhagen since 2005. Through temporary projects, reflecting on present socio-political questions, publik aims to challenge the dominating ways of structuring the urban and the common, and to make room for other ways of grasping relations, communities and everyday life.
Publik opened the project room bureau publik in the fall 2012, focusing on the ongoing economic crisis and the protests taking place in Europe, the US, North Africa and other parts of the world. bureau publik is a location for artistic and discoursive activities, seeking to comprehend this situation and to generate perspectives and meanings that point to alternative ways of constructing the world.
