Future Of Work Foundation

Spacemakers zijn partijen die willen bijdragen aan systeemverandering door ruimte te maken voor kunst op ongebruikelijke plekken, zoals binnen de economie, de wetenschap of de technologie. De inzet: met kunst werken aan een duurzame en rechtvaardige samenleving, zowel op ecologisch, economisch als sociaal gebied. Als jij een Spacemaker, kunstenaar, opdrachtgever, subsidieverlener of gewoon een nieuwsgierige geest bent, nodigen we je uit om de cahiers van ons project SUSTAIN te gebruiken als bron van inspiratie over hoe kunst kan samenwerken met andere domeinen en de waarde en het belang van Spacemakers voor deze samenwerking. Ontdek, leer en draag bij aan systeemtransitie door het omarmen van kunst én van Spacemaking. In deze post willen we het cahier ‘Roeping’ uitlichten. In dit cahier gaat het over the call to adventure, of waartoe Spacemakers zich geroepen voelen om ruimte te maken voor kunst in andere contexten om zo tot systeemverandering te komen. Welk verschil willen ze maken? En vanuit welk idee, waarde of overtuiging doen ze dat? Wat staat er op het spel? Dit is een gezamenlijk project van De Haagse Hogeschool / The Hague University of Applied Sciences en Avans Hogeschool. Met bijdragen van Kim Caarls (editor) Kees Klomp Prof. dr. Tineke A.

In Volume One of the special issue #EconomyforLife! of #PariPerspectives(Volume Two will be released in September 2024) we open with an article of David Bollier about the commons. He describes the economy of the commons, but also how the economy itself is a commons, challenging us to reclaim our agency in it. And that encapsulates the core aim of these Pari perspectives: furnishing us with ideologies, narratives, ideas, and examples to foster economic fairness and to assist us in recognizing where things go wrong and how to address them Elena Lomeli Aguirre describes how our democracy has become an econocracy, an institution that serves the economy rather than life itself. She shines a light on how to escape from this imprisonment and reclaim our agency by creating value-based value. Reon Brand also sheds light on the shortcomings of the current economy. He advocates for infusing poetry into the way we organize our households. Elise Talgorn demonstrates how films and film heroes can aid us in reevaluating our economic narrative. Marieke van Mieghem and #EllenRooijakkers illustrate a practical example of local flax cultivation as a catalyst for solidarity, empowerment, and inspiration. Sam de Muijnck and Maarten Nijman argue that economic transformation begins with a shift in economic education. The artist collective #ruangrupa, which curated #Documenta15 in Kassel in 2022, share their journey to establish a #LumbungEconomy, emphasizing principles of local anchoring, regeneration, independence, and generosity, as well as humor and lightheartedness even amidst great injustice and stress. Ruangrupa’s perspective on decolonizing the economy also resonates in the article about Vertical Thinking as an alternative to the horizontal thinking entrenched in colonization. Finally, Marga Rotteveel takes us to #Gamvik, a remote fishing village on the Norwegian coast of the Barents Sea. She shows us how Gamvik serves as a microcosm of resilience, community, and sustainability. Moreover, it inspires us all to nurture curiosity about the abundance of wisdom present in small yet influential communities like Gamvik, as well as others around the world.

On Wednesday 12th of June The Academy of Interdisciplinairy Arts (iArts) invites you for the iArts Talks Lumbung Edition with guest speakers Reza Afisina (ruangrupa), Iswanto Hartono (ruangrupa) and Gertrude Flentge (member artistic team Documenta fifteen and lumbung). Lumbung is a pre-colonial rural practice in Indonesia, where the surplus is collectively governed, shared, and celebrated for the future wellbeing of the community. During documenta fifteen it grew into more: a rhizomatic collective of collectives, and a practice of decentralized collective redistribution at the heart of the art institution and exhibitionary logic. This event will go into the longevity of the lumbung process, that started long before documenta fifteen and is continuing after in many forms. How can knowledge and values of the lumbung be regenerated from one phase to the other. What effect do (institutional) contexts have on a value based collective process such as the lumbung? How can educational institutions contribute? The event will be introduced by Olga Mink, Head of iARTS. About the speakers: Gertrude Flentge Gertrude Flentge joined ruangrupa in the artistic team of documenta fifteen to develop lumbung, building on the experience with amongst others the RAIN Artists Initiatives Network at the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten (1999-2004) and Arts Collaboratory / DOEN Foundation (2007 - present). In 2024 she will launch the temporary master Lumbung Practice at Sandberg Instituut in collaboration with Lara Khaldi/De Appel and Gudskul.    Reza Afisina and Iswanto Hartono Reza Afisina and Iswanto Hartono, are part of the artist collective ruangrupa, GudSkul Study Collective and Art Ecosystem based in Jakarta, Indonesia. Aside working as an individual artist, both are active as new media artist-duo called (RA.IH). #maastrichtinstituteofart #iArts #maia #gemeentemaastricht #studentenstad #futureofwork Academy of Interdisciplinairy Arts (iArts) Zuyd Hogeschool | Zuyd University of Applied Sciences Future Of Work Foundation

join us this week at Blikopener Festival! #vanwieisdeeconomie? #vanwieisGroningen? #futureofwork

Future Of Work Foundation goes Blikopener Festival in Groningen! The installation "Who owns the Economy" developed by Olga Mink, Peter Zuiderwijk and Godelieve Spaas will be presented as part of the festival on 7th and 8th of June in the Sugarfactory in Groningen. During the festival the questions 'Who Owns the Economy?' and 'Who Owns Groningen?' are the core of this exploration. For centuries, the economy of Groningen has heavily relied on external factors, from agriculture to the natural gas industry. Local residents often had little say in shaping their economic destiny. Now that the era of gas is in the past, a crucial question arises: how can Groningen build a more self-determined economic future? At Blikopener Festival, Olga Mink and Peter Zuiderwijk explore which economic narratives could be viable within the context of Groningen. Which stories, practices, and ideas lead to new possibilities for action?

Art is innate to all humans, but it is today mostly framed as decorative business. The Fifth Element initiative by The Club of Rome questions this framing and enquires into the role of art in bringing about a societal transformation. We work with the Future Of Work Foundation and other partners to help humanity emerge from our current crises into desirable futures through art. Learn more ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dgg4VCSc

Future of Work, together with Waag Futurelab, In4Art, V2_, Lab for the Unstable Media, Circus Andersom (Circus the other way Around), and Artpartner, teamed up in this research conducted by Godelieve Spaas, Jacco van Uden, Marga Rotteveel, Kim Caarls and Olga Mink. Moreover, five thematic e-magazines were launched and we'd like to share this insightful article by researcher Kim Caarls, which features the project 'who owns the economy'.
