Alternative Education Programme event ‘The Secretary, the Shaman, the Scholar, the Lobbyist, the Publicist, and the Virtuoso’ in WIELS, Brussels

On 10 October, at 6 pm at WIELS in Brussels, KASK Curatorial Studies programme from Ghent, Level Five from Brussels and Rupert Alternative Education Programme visiting from Vilnius will present an open educational session inviting artists, cultural practitioners and anybody interested to join in a form of a public workshop. 

Rooted in processes of collective, self-organised learning, the gathering will explore forms of alternative education, collective methodologies, and the often-unseen aspects of artistic labour beyond individual production. Through a generative sequence of questions and responses, artists, researchers, and curators from varied disciplinary and institutional backgrounds collaboratively developed a set of propositions — or ‘codes of conduct’ — reflecting their shared values and visions for working in the arts today. This public session invites visitors to encounter and engage with these outcomes.

Participants of the 13th edition of the AEP: Alexandra Bondarev, Anton Karyuk, Charles de Agustin, Charline Gdalia, Chris Tegho, Janina Fritz, Luisa Berghammer, Marta Finkelstein, Oscar Mathieu le Bussy, SUNRS. 

The programme in Belgium is led by AEP curator Goda Palekaitė with the help of our volunteer Gustė Kripaitė.
