2021. A 48 hour workshop (camp) involved participants in ways that optimised the chance for new ideas, networks and initiatives to emerge. Main goal for the camp – and to the organiser Platform BK – was to produce new scenarios for the topic “No City Without Art”.
The artist-run space, W 139, Amsterdam was the basecamp for common meals, collaborations, discussions and game based explorations of the surrounding neighbourhood.
The workshop involved the body in ways that nurtures a broad (and fun) range of interactions. The game-based structure aims at creating a rhythm between a radical openness and a concrete and operational focus.
The Camp was a collaboration with the visual artist – and great cook – Bert Jacobs.
