Arts and Activism
Turkey | Anadolu Kültür
Arts and activism workshop, bringing activists and artists from Turkey and Armenia together, aims to set ground to discuss the current problems of both countries and to produce joint projects. In both Armenia and Turkey, there are representatives of the artistic community who refer to political and social issues in their work.

There are also a few (yet growing) number of civil society activists who generate artistically rich and dynamic grassroots movements.

 

These artists and grassroots activists are well connected to each other via local networks, while some of them are also engaged in cross-border collaboration through different initiatives.

 

Anadolu Kültür, organising a workshop to bring grassroots activists and experienced artists from the two countries together, aims to set ground to discuss the current problems of both countries and to produce joint projects.

 

Artists experienced in audiovisual methods, public art, performance art, etc. will give their input to explore the use of various means of arts in civic activism; while grassroots activists, coming from various backgrounds, such as human rights, urban transformation and environment, minority rights, gender, etc. will share their experiences on effective utilisation of artistic forms.
