Artists, Producers, Freelancers, Entrepreneurs on the 1st of May: Are Artists Workers?

Srpski ispod.

Shared Visions in cooperation with KP Radionica, DC Loža, Knjižarsko-izdavačka zadruga Baraba and DC ZaČin invite you to a series of three events inspired by the 1st of May. The events will examine questions like: who are workers today and who are the middle classes? How does automatization i.e. AI and robotics affecting social structure and the relations between workers and producers? If the freelancer or entrepreneur were the product of the neoliberal system what would be the mode of production in the post-neoliberal economy that we are heading to? What happens when the middle classes pauperize? Do they become workers? In what conditions can there be cooperation between the working class and the pauperized middle classes? How to define the political subject and the goal?

Are Artists Workers?

The first of these workshops will be held on the 25.4 at 17h in KC Radionica asking do Artists structurally belong to a certain class and what does that imply regarding their struggles and ways of organization.

Shared Visions is an International Visual Artists Cooperative that will be inaugurated in June this year. In this workshop we will present the democratic structure and economy of solidarity of the cooperative. We will discuss how such enterprise can contribute to bettering the living and working conditions of artists as individuals and as a community.

The cooperative will also contribute on a societal level to positioning art and culture as a public societal good and imagining a new mode of production.

Guest:

Nenad Glišić – writer, journalist, educator Noa Treister – visual artists, curator, educator – Shared Visions, DC ZaČin Nu Simakina – performance artists, KC Radionica

Following the discussion there will be a practical workshop on sticker making in the spirit of the 1st of May. Leading the the particle workshop will be Vanya Octo bit

During the workshop we will have food, drinks and music

UMETNICI, PRODUCENTI, FRILENSERI, PREDUZETNICI POSLE 1. MAJA

Shared Visions u saradnji sa KP Radionica, DC Loža, Knjižarsko-izdavačkom zadrugom Baraba i DC ZaČin vas pozivaju na seriju od tri događaja inspirisana 1. majem. Događaji će ispitati sledeća pitanja: ko su danas radnici, a ko srednja klasa? Kako automatizacija, odnosno veštačka inteligencija i robotika, utiču na društvenu strukturu i odnose između radnika i proizvođača? Ako bi frilenser ili preduzetnik bio proizvod neoliberalnog sistema, kakav bi bio način proizvodnje u postneoliberalnoj ekonomiji ka kojoj se krećemo? Šta se dešava kada srednja klasa osiromaši? Da li postaju radnici? Pod kojim uslovima može doći do saradnje između radničke klase i osiromašene srednje klase? Kako definisati političkog subjekta i cilj?

Da li su umetnici radnici?

Prva od ovih radionica održaće se 25.4. u 17 časova u KC Radionica, i baviće se pitanjem da li umetnici strukturno pripadaju određenoj klasi i šta to podrazumeva u vezi sa njihovim borbama i načinima organizovanja.

Shared Visions je međunarodna zadruga vizuelnih umetnika koja će biti zvanično uspostavljena u junu ove godine. Na ovoj radionici predstavićemo demokratsku strukturu i ekonomiju solidarnosti zadruge. Razgovaraćemo o tome kako takvo preduzeće može doprineti poboljšanju životnih i radnih uslova umetnika kao pojedinaca i kao zajednice.

Zadruga će takođe doprineti na društvenom nivou pozicioniranju umetnosti i kulture kao javnog društvenog dobra i osmišljavanju novog načina proizvodnje.

Gosti:

Nenad Glišić – pisac, novinar, pedagog

Noa Trajster – vizuelna umetnica, kustos, aktivista – Shared Visions, DC ZaČin

Nakon diskusije biće održana praktična radionica o izradi nalepnica u duhu 1. maja. Radionicu o česticama vodiće Vanja Oktobit.

Tokom radionice imaćemo hranu, piće i muziku.
