Saturday 3 July  A Gift for Joseph Beuys: 3 Pots for the Future 

The first guests explore what they think Joseph Beuys left us for the future, and contribute what they think is needed as a resource in the 3 Pots for the Future.

With Bodo von Plato [Philosopher, Educator] and Urs Pohlman [Neuroscientist]. Facilitated by Shelley Sacks in the Survival Room, Neue Galerie.

The Human Soul Needs Saving [1]
What is a human being? What is a machine?

What: A one-day seminar-conversation with contributions from Bodo von Plato, Clarine Campagne, Urs Pohlman and Shelley Sacks relating to a statement made by Joseph Beuys that one of the most urgent needs of our time is that ‘the human soul needs saving’. How can this be understood amidst today’s global urgencies and emergencies?

We are living on the edge of the old earth, in an era of intense social and ecological suffering. Not only are there immense external crises to deal with, there are also the crises of consciousness and understanding.

What is a human being? What is the difference between a human being and a hyper intelligent machine designed to look like a human being? What kind of education do we need if we are not really sure of the difference between human beings and machines that are programmed with human values and decision-making processes to make ‘intelligent’ decisions?

These and related questions about the value of the human being will be opened up for exchange and reflection in this conversation with four people for whom this is an urgent and central concern.

Venue: In the Survival Room of the Kassel-21 / Social Sculpture Lab

Date: 4 July 2021   10.00 -13.00   14.30 – 17.00

How to participate: Due to Covid restrictions, this event will now be recorded and shared as part of a sign up online seminar-conversation.

Details of the online event between July and September, to follow.

Language: German and English – with patience. To facilitate participation with those beyond the German-speaking world.]

Bodo von Plato is currently working on aspects of consciousness- and mentality transformation in the late 20th and beginning 21st century (Berlin). He was part of the Goetheanum-leadership between 2001 and 2018 (Dornach). Trained as a historian and philosopher in French, Austrian and German Universities and teacher in a Waldorf-School (Paris), Bodo has worked with Shelley, Clarine and Urs in several projects on aesthetic, spiritual, scientific and social issues.

Urs Pohlman Neuroscientist and Art Therapist. Professor of Complementary Therapies.

Clarine Campagne Coach and Organisation Consultant. Author: U-Theory in Groups

Shelley Sacks is a social sculpture practitioner and cultural activist exploring the relationship between freedom, responsibility as an ability-to-respond, and the role of imagination in transformation. Concerns with ‘aesthetic strategies in times of change’ inspired by Beuys’ social sculpture proposals, run through her work in South Africa [1976-1990], in the Social Sculpture Research Unit, Oxford [1997-2019], and in her own ‘connective practice’ projects in many countries and contexts.

Reflections on Survival.  Process for groups. How do I understand Survival? What do we really need to survive? And at what cost, to whom?

Intro to Lab and Participatory Process led by artist-curator, Shelley Sacks. 

BRING AN OBJECT that raises a question
All participants to an object from home, or from the 1 Euro shop, that raises the question: Do we really need this to Survive? 

Where: In the Survival Room, Neue Galerie.

All welcome. Free participation.

When: Thursday 8. July, 18.00 – 19.00
Online-Introduction [Einführung].

Who: This introduction is relevant for all people who are curious to find out more about Feld der Begegnung: What is it? How to participate in it? In what sense is Feld der Begegnung a Willensfeld?

It is particularly relevant for people who live in the 23 areas of Kassel, who have heard about it, or seen a leaflet, and want to consider participating in Feld der Begegnung, by creating their own Ort der Begegnung.

What is the Field of Commitment /Feld der Begegnung?
The Field of Commitment (FdB) is a Social Sculpture – Connective Practice, in which people connect individually with a tree and by so doing create a local anchor point on the planet for their commitment and work towards an ecosocial present and future.

Through many such „anchor points“ and partnerships between people and trees, as well as through the exchange of experiences between the people involved, a field of commitment is being created in Kassel, which makes visible and strengthens the will to work for an ecosocial future.

In the online introduction you will learn how you can actively participate in the field of encounter.

Today is for exploring NATURE

Join us to begin MAKING SOCIAL HONEY and discovering new methods for thinking together.

Every morning 10.00 -12.30 : we gather substance in the museum and outdoors.

We do this by looking each of these five concepts and realities – Nature, Human Being, Love, Freedom and Future – through our own inner frames and through the deerskin frame, and gathering our thoughts in the FRAMETALKS booklet. Then we also go outside and look together through the deerskin frame on wheels to see how these realities appear in the world

Every afternoon: 13.30 -17.00   We work together to start „making social honey“.

To understand more about FRAMETALKS if you haven’t already participated in the previous 5 weeks [24 June to 24 July] please read this section

All these five days of gathering insights, sharing insights and listening into what is emerging, are followed by the final day: Sunday 1 August, when we will try to listen into what is emerging and begin to gather this together as a kind of map of commitments and „pathways to ecological citizenship“.

Today is for exploring HUMAN BEING

Ort  Blühtlinde, 34127 Kassel / Stadtteil Rothenditmold

(Hilfe zum Finden: Link auf Docutopia-Karte)

Resevierungsmöglichkeit / Anmeldung: earthforum@socialsculpturelab.com

ERDFORUM ist ein erprobtes Format, entwickelt von der Künstlerin Shelley Sacks, in dem unser kreatives Vorstellungsvermögen eingesetzt wird, um eine tiefe Qualität des Austauschs zu erfahren, die über Diskussion oder Debatte hinausgeht. Hierzu wird mit zwei besonderen Qualitäten gearbeitet: der Fähigkeit der Imagination und der Fähigkeit des aktiven Zuhörens. Die Teilnehmenden erleben sich als bewusste Gestalter ihres eigenen Lebens, ihres Umfeldes und ihres Stadtteils.

Ein Erdforum dauert 3-4 Stunden und es können bis zu 12 Personen teilnehmen. In der Regel findet es im Freien an unterschiedlichen Orten statt.

STADTENTWICKLUNG

Eine riesige Brachfläche am Rande von Rothenditmold, mehrfach abgeräumtes Gartenland, Schutt und Müll flächig verteilt, neu überwuchert von Spontanvegetation. Wie soll die Fläche in Zukunft aussehen, was ist wichtig für den Stadtteil und seine Bürger und wie werden sie beteiligt an kommunalen Planungsprozessen? Mit einer Reihe von Erdforen bieten wir einen Imaginations- und Dialograum für diese Fragen.

„Wenn wir die Zukunft, die wir wollen, nicht gestalten, werden wir die Zukunft bekommen, die wir nicht wollen, und die ist auch zum Teil schon da.“ (Joseph Beuys)

Herzliche Einladung an Alle, an der verbindenden Praxis des Erdforums -geleitet von Karsten Winnemuth (Essbare Stadt e.V./ Social Sculpture Lab e.V.)- kostenlos teilzunehmen.

Then we also go outside and look together through the deerskin frame on wheels to see how these realities appear in the world

Every afternoon: 13.30 -17.00   We work together to start „making social honey“.

To understand more about FRAMETALKS if you haven’t already participated in the previous 5 weeks [24 June to 24 July] please read this section

All these five days of gathering insights, sharing insights and listening into what is emerging, are followed by the final day: Sunday 1 August, when we will try to listen into what is emerging and begin to gather this together as a kind of map of commitments and „pathways to ecological citizenship“.

ERDFORUM ist ein erprobtes Format, entwickelt von der Künstlerin Shelley Sacks, in dem unser kreatives Vorstellungsvermögen eingesetzt wird, um eine tiefe Qualität des Austauschs zu erfahren, die über Diskussion oder Debatte hinausgeht. Hierzu wird mit zwei besonderen Qualitäten gearbeitet: der Fähigkeit der Imagination und der Fähigkeit des aktiven Zuhörens. Die Teilnehmenden erleben sich als bewusste Gestalter ihres eigenen Lebens, ihres Umfeldes und ihres Stadtteils.

Ein Erdforum dauert 3-4 Stunden und es können bis zu 12 Personen teilnehmen. In der Regel findet es im Freien an unterschiedlichen Orten statt.

MÜLL ist oft ein Thema und ein Ärgernis in unseren Stadtteilen. Welche Beziehung haben wir zu unserem Müll, was spiegelt er uns? Können wir uns vom Wegwerf-Plastik hineinbewegen in die Soziale Plastik, in der wir unser Umfeld und unsere Gesellschaft auf Basis gemeinsamer Vorstellungen mitgestalten?

Wie können wir die Welt mit anderen Augen sehen und ökologischer gestalten? Ist unsere Gesellschaft nicht ein Gesamtkunstwerk, an dem alle mitwirken?

„Jeder Mensch ist ein Künstler!“ (Joseph Beuys)

Herzliche Einladung an Alle, an diesem Kunstwerk im Rahmen eines Erdforums -geleitet von Karsten Winnemuth (Essbare Stadt e.V./ Social Sculpture Lab e.V.)- kostenlos teilzunehmen.

NEW EYES FOR THE WORLD

Online Introduction to Connective Practice and Training

A simple ‚connective practice‘ for lovers of the world, interested in ’new organs of perception‘, in ‘survival’, in working with others, and who cannot come to the Kassel-21 Lab.

This is a call for people across the world – to learn about and participate in an inspiring connective practice that helps one look at the world with ‘new eyes’, and then, if they find it meaningful, to extend these ‘new eyes’ by sharing the practice with people in your locality and network. It is therefore a call for people who are willing to consider becoming multipliers of a connective practice.

Date: Thursday 12 August, 2021 13.00 – 16.00 CET  [This session is now full]

STADTENTWICKLUNG

Eine riesige Brachfläche am Rande von Rothenditmold, mehrfach abgeräumtes Gartenland, Schutt und Müll flächig verteilt, neu überwuchert von Spontanvegetation. Wie soll die Fläche in Zukunft aussehen, was ist wichtig für den Stadtteil und seine Bürger und wie werden sie beteiligt an kommunalen Planungsprozessen? Mit einer Reihe von Erdforen bieten wir einen Imaginations- und Dialograum für diese Fragen.

LANDING STRIP FOR SOULS

Working with questions and listening to the future

CONNECTIVE PRACTICE workshop in Kassel

Landing Strip for Souls is an inspiring and enlivening process for uncovering, exploring and working with questions individually and together and for ‘coming to our senses’. It has been used with individuals, groups and organisations to uncover, redefine and shape anew their ‘agendas for transformation’.

It enables one to land with new imaginative perception and power in oneself and with others, in a world of many intersecting challenges.

The capacities of active listening, seeing and hearing that we develop in this connective practice, help us work together to listen to the call of the future in ourselves, in a group and in the world.

Developing Initiatives and Plans in New Ways
Its special processes of active listening and imaginal work enable plans to be developed and initiatives to emerge in an organic, holistic way that are in tune with the context.  We call this creative emergence and unfolding of an initiative or plan, ‘living planning’.

The process is not only useful for reconsidering how we currently see and think, but for developing new ways of perceiving and relating to what the world asks of us, and for thinking-together about our shared future in one locality, on one planet.

One-day ‘workshops’ in August 2021
During the Kassel-21 Social Sculpture Lab you can participate in this one-day process, for a new ‘landing’ in yourself and current context.  Participating in Landing Strip for Souls  will also give you insight into what this process of working with questions has to do with the field of social sculpture and how it connects inner and outer action.

Participation is free. The Kassel-21 Social Sculpture Lab is able to offer these practices free, due to funding from several foundations. See Sponsors and Partners.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

LIVE IN KASSEL   Tuesday 24 August, 2021  10.00 -17.00 [Live in Kassel]

THE CHILD AND THE FUTURE OF THE WORLD

On 1 Sept. Afternoon only.

WELTANSCHAUUNGEN FÜR EINEN PLANETEN

ist ein eintägiges ‚Seminar-Gespräch‘ in Kassel, im Survival Room, geleitet von Stefan Nadolny und Shelley Sacks.

Dies ist ein Aufruf an alle, die an diesem Thema interessiert sind, sich uns für einen „Forschungstag“ anzuschließen.

Die Frage, die diese Erkundung motiviert
Die beispiellosen Herausforderungen der heutigen Zeit eröffnen enorme neue Perspektiven für Veränderungen und machen gleichzeitig deutlich, wie schwierig es ist, Entscheidungen zu treffen, wenn es viele konkurrierende Weltanschauungen gibt. Religiös. Weltliche. Wissenschaftliche Weltanschauungen. Jede Weltanschauung und jedes Wertesystem, ob bewusst oder unbewusst, beeinflusst die Entscheidungen, die wir treffen. Sie bestimmen die Entscheidungen, die wir treffen, oft ohne uns dessen bewusst zu sein.

Gibt es eine Form der Universalität jenseits der Totalisierung und der Vielfalt jenseits des Relativismus? 
Eine Möglichkeit, mit unterschiedlichen Weltanschauungen in liberalen, säkularen Demokratien umzugehen, besteht darin, zu versuchen, sie alle zu tolerieren, auch wenn die Unterschiede unter der Oberfläche nicht leicht zu akzeptieren sind.

Aus einer liberal-demokratischen Perspektive hat jeder das Recht auf einen anderen Standpunkt, und jeder Standpunkt ist im Prinzip gleich gültig. Alle Ansichten sind nur persönliche oder Gruppenperspektiven. Es gibt keine Wahrheiten. Alles ist relativ.

Der Gegenpol ist die totalitäre Position. Unterschiede werden nicht geduldet. Ein Glaubenssystem, eine politische Ideologie, ein wissenschaftlicher Ansatz oder ein intellektueller Diskurs wird als der wahre, richtige und einzige angesehen. Beide Ansätze haben enorme und oft negative Konsequenzen.

Dieses Seminargespräch bezieht sich auf Beuys‘ Zeichnung „Die Wahrheit ist eine Wunderkerze“, in der verschiedene Weltanschauungen und Perspektiven von einem Zentrum ausstrahlen.

Es geht der Frage nach, ob Beuys‘ Betonung der „phänomenologischen Wahrnehmung“ und eines „permanenten Konferenz“-Prozesses zur Erforschung von Fragen dazu beitragen kann, sowohl die Relativierung als auch die Totalisierung unterschiedlicher Perspektiven und Weltanschauungen zu überwinden.

Es stellt die Frage, ob lokale, regionale und globale Versammlungen, die mit phänomenologischen Erkundungen einer Frage beginnen, anstatt auf der Grundlage von Positionen zu argumentieren, gemeinsame Kriterien für die Entscheidungsfindung besser ermöglichen könnten?

Die Öffentlichkeit ist eingeladen, gemeinsam mit Stefan Nadolny und Shelley Sacks zu erkunden, wie man sich diesem Thema nähern kann.

Wo: Im Survival Room des Kassel-21 / Social Sculpture Lab.

Datum: 3. September, 2021.

Zeit: 10.30 – 17.00 Uhr am Freitag, 3. September

Wie Sie teilnehmen können
Schreiben Sie eine E-Mail an info@socialsculpturelab.com, um uns mitzuteilen, dass Sie an dieser Erkundung teilnehmen möchten.  Bitte geben Sie WORLDVIEWS in der Betreffzeile an.

Bitte behalten Sie die aktuelle Inzidenz vor Ort im Blick!

August 2021 gültigen Präventions- und Eskalationskonzept der Hessischen Landesregierung müssen wir ab einer Inzidenz von 35 oder höher beim Einlass in Kultureinrichtungen die 3G-Regel anwenden.

Online-Sitzungen: Wir beabsichtigen, im Jahr 2022 weitere Veranstaltungen mit diesem Schwerpunkt zu organisieren, online und eine Veranstaltung in Kassel.

WORLDVIEWS FOR ONE PLANET

is 1 day ‚Seminar-Conversation‘ in Kassel, in the Survival Room, facilitated by Stefan Nadolny and Shelley Sacks.

This is a call to everyone who might be interested in this theme to join us for a ‚research‘ day.

The question motivating this exploration

The unprecedented challenges of today open up huge new perspectives for change, whilst making visible how difficult it is to make decisions when there are many competing worldviews. Religious. Secular. Scientific worldviews. Each worldview and value system, conscious or not, affects the choices we make. Determines the decisions we make, often without realizing it.

Is there a form of universality beyond totalizing, and of diversity beyond relativism? 
One way that people cope with different worldviews in liberal, secular democracies is to try and tolerate them all, even if beneath the surface difference is not easily accepted.

From a liberal-democratic perspective everyone has the right to a different point of view and every point of view is, in principle, equally valid. All views are just personal or group perspectives. There are no truths. Everything is relative.

The opposite pole is the totalitarian position. Difference is not tolerated. A faith system, political ideology, the scientific approach or intellectual discourse is seen as being the true, correct and only one. Both these approaches have huge and often negative consequences.

This seminar-conversation refers to Beuys’ drawing “The Truth is a Sparkler” in which different worldviews and perspectives radiate from one center.

It explores if Beuys’ emphasis on ‘phenomenological perception’ and a ‘permanent conference’ process for exploring questions, can help to overcome both the relativizing and totalizing of different perspectives and worldviews.

It asks whether local, regional and global assemblies that begin with phenomenological explorations of a question, instead of arguing based on positions, could better enable shared criteria for making decisions?

Members of the public are invited to join Stefan Nadolny and Shelley Sacks to explore ways of approaching this theme.

Where: In the Survival Room of the Kassel-21 / Social Sculpture Lab.

Date: 3 September, 2021.

Time: 10.30 – 17.00 on Friday 3 September

How to participate
Email info@socialsculpturelab.com to let us know you are interested in joining this exploration.  Please put WORLDVIEWS in the subject line.

Language: Live in Kassel [in German].

Online sessions: We intend to organise future events with this focus in 2022, online, and one event in Kassel.

Bicycle Tour – Feld der Begegnung –for Museumswoche

What is Feld der Begegnung? How to participate in it? In what sense is Feld der Begegnung, a ‚Willensfeld‘?

If you are curious to find out more and meet some of the people who have already created an Ort der Begegnung in Kassel, join this bicycle tour.
We will „explore“ the Field of Commitment and visit some of the trees that makes up the field (recognisable by the yellow „Field of Commitment“ band).

Who   This tour is useful for:
a. People who live in the 23 areas of Kassel, who are considering creating their own Ort der Begegnung.
b. Visitors to Kassel who would like to facilitate a Feld der Begegnung in their village, town or city.
c. Newcomers and people who are already actively involved.

The exchange of ideas and the experience of the emergent field in the city will give you a sense  „field of the will“.  The tour is also a good way to get to know each other and to decide whether you want to contribute a commitment to this field of the will yourself.

Place/Link: The meeting point will be communicated after you register.

Register: feld-kassel@universityofthetrees.org

Language: German

SPECIAL EVENT FOR MUSEUMSWOCHE

PARTICIPANTS come together – physically present in the Survival Room in Kassel – to create this ‚GIFT for JOSEPH BEUYS‘ by sharing how they understand what Joseph Beuys has left us, and what they think is needed in humanity’s ‚3 Pots for the Future“.

This is one of several days on which small groups of invited and self-selecting participants come together – live in Kassel – to share what they understand Joseph Beuys has left us for the future.

All welcome. Free participation.

24-Hour Official Covid test currently required, or double vaccination, or immunity.
In the space: 1.5m distancing.

FRAMETALKS is one of the Connective Practices in the Social Sculpture Lab, that focuses on what Beuys meant by the „invisible materials“ of social sculpture. And on the importance of ‚imaginal thought‘.

In the FRAMETLAKS process, we work as individuals and then together in a group to explore the 5 Realities – Nature, Human Being, Love, Freedom, Future.

These reflections as individuals create the basis for sharing insights and then thinking together about the future we want!

Come and collect the small free FRAMETALKS workbook that is an integral part of the process. You can even collect it weeks or days beforehand and begin using it until you come to this session.

Please be on time for the introduction at 14.30.

Join this special event for Museumswoche in the Neue Galerie Foyer on Saturday 4 September, 2021.  Time: 14.30 -16.30

No booking required.

Facilitated by Anna Backmund.

Intro to Lab and Participatory Process led by artist-curator, Shelley Sacks. 

BRING AN OBJECT that raises a question.
All participants to bring an object from home, or from the 1 Euro shop, that raises the question: Do we really need this to Survive? 

Where: In the Survival Room, Neue Galerie.

Time: 12.00 – 17.00

All welcome. Free participation.

FIELD OF COMMITMENT – TRAINING

This 4-day event cannot take place now. It is being rescheduled for later this year. Date to be announced.

TRAINING TO CREATE A FIELD OF COMMITMENT

WHAT   The Field of Commitment makes visible the existing willingness in a place to commit to an ecosocial present and future and strengthens this „field of will“.  In partnership with a tree, people create a local „anchor place“ in the world in order to strengthen their own commitment and to become more effective in solidaity with others.

The Field of Commitment has begun in the city of Kassel, with a call for the first 100 people.  The first +10 anchor places that already exist are just the beginning….

There are already requests from other cities and countries to enable people to create a Field of Commitment there… which is in keeping with the „bigger picture“. In fact, the Field of Commitment is not limited: trees do not know urban or national boundaries…  they are all part of the field of this planet Earth.

During the training we will introduce and practice the concrete steps and phases for establishing a Field of Commitment in your area. In doing so, we will experience and reflect on the different ‚tasks‘ required of companions and guardians of the field.

The aim of the training is for the participants to
a.) understand and experience the Field of Commitment
b.) be able to facilitate others to creating a specific anchor place and
c.) initiate the Field of Commitment in their own city (or village / country / community).

This training will also enable participants to get to know the field of Social Sculpture – Connecting Practice a little better.

The training is right for you if you are interested in creating places of encounter. Place for encounter with yourself, the world and with others.  Such encountering is an aid to awareness, clear thinking and reflection on how we can individually and collectively contribute towards the shaping of a human and ecological future.

Will has to do with the kind of „inner mobilization“ that Beuys emphasized, which is also closely linked to a new kind of connective and imaginal thinking: „It all depends on the warmth character of thinking. That is the new quality of the will.“ (Joseph Beuys)

The Field of Commitment enables us not only to care for trees, but to engage in seeking new connective ways of living together on this planet without causing unnecessary suffering.

The training will begin with a bike ride/walk to the trees in the Kassel Field of Commitment. We will inform you where to meet nearer the time and after you have registered.

COST    Participation fee: 120-300 € depending on your self-assessment.
For thise with minimal financial means, it is possible to request a scholarship or reduction.
You can also fund a scholarship by contributing more than €300.

FACILITATION    Shelley Sacks & Martina Schäfer

WHERE    Kassel (exact address will be communicated after registration)

FRAMETALKS, EARTH FORUM and FIELD OF COMMITMENT

One day has been set aside to hear from all participants and coordinators in FRAMETALKS, Feld der Begegnung, Earth Forum, Landing Strip for Souls and New Eyes for the World – what has been happening in each of the projects.

In the first part of the day everyone present will be invited to say how they have been touched or effected by any of the practices, during the lab or even in the past. What effect has a practice had on your work, life, organisation, ways of thinking and behaving?

After this people will be invited to try and say what in a particular practice might have enabled this experience, and then, if this experience is valuable, or not.

What insights have you gathered so far:
About the practice?
About informing and inviting people?
About the changes we might need to make because of Covid?

Finally, we will look at what you still planning and hoping to do?

Reflection in the research-process
We are continually making changes in the practices and how we try and inform people about them.  This is why we see them as part of a research process, and not just as ‚finished products‘ to deliver or sell!

If you would like to contribute to this public exchange and reflection – you are welcome, especially if you have already participated in any one of these connective practices.

It would be very helpful to hear your responses to these questions, and any other insights you can share.

If COVID numbers are still low, no need to book. Just come to the Survival Room, in the Neue Galerie.
Or – contact the Neue Galerie, Kassel for info and to sign up: +49 (0)561 316 80-400

Shelley Sacks answers questions about her work and time with Joseph Beuys.

This event is fully booked.

The FREE INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY [FIU], the UNIVERSITY OF THE TREES and the SOCIAL SCULPTURE LAB for New Knowledge An Eco-Social Future

Shelley Sacks will share her experiences and thoughts as the basis for an exchange about the connections between Beuys’s Free International University for Creativity and Interdisciplinary Research [FIU], the Social Sculpture Research Unit in Oxford, the University of the Trees and the new global Social Sculpture Lab for New Knowledge An Eco-Social Future – recently launched in this Beuys Centenary year.

What commitments and insights are carried forward from the FIU in the University of the Trees and the new Social Sculpture Lab?  What are the differences?

The exchange will consider the intentions and methodologies of these contemporary initiatives, making reference to Beuys’ vision for a Free School [with Heinrich Böll and others] and its evolution into the FIU.

Her presentation will share the ‘guiding images’ inspiring and informing the University of the Trees and the new Social Sculpture Lab, and consider what they have to do with our view of the human being as a ‘freedom being’ [Beuys], the aesthetic education of the human being [Schiller], developing new organs of perception [Goethe], the aesthetic as an enlivening force, and ‘responsibility as an ability-to-respond’.

It will outline the structure of the new Social Sculpture Lab for New Knowledge An Eco-Social Future and how the Kassel-21 /Social Sculpture Lab enables access to the field of social sculpture for the people of Kassel and further afield.

If you would like to share something related to some aspect of this exchange please write a brief email to us outlining what this might be.

When  Sunday 19 September 2021.  12.00 -17.00

Where  Survival Room, Neue Galerie.

REFLECTIONS on EFFECTIVENESS and PROPOSALS 
In Addition to Tree Planting: What is to be done?

This is an opportunity to share, discuss and develop PROPOSALS for future initiatives in the field of social sculpture, connective practice and closely related actions.

These future initiatives might also benefit from using the newly registered global Social Sculpture Lab e.V.

If your proposal is a development of an existing initiative, then it would be helpful if you have already shared this research, project or other initiative in the Projects and Research Week 19 -22 August.

Please let us know if you are interested in sharing a proposal for a future initiative, and/or exploring possibilities for developing a proposal with us or others in the field.
