about the project Cultures developed within local contexts are intrinsically
related to political, economic, social and material aspects
and to specific temporalities, spatialities, individual and
collective histories and experiences. Like the whole Rhyzom
project, the book is an attempt to create transversal links and
connections within and across different local framings and to
seize instances of the dynamic and complicated nature of notions
of ‘local’ and ‘culture’ through multiple forms of practice,
which address the critical condition of culture in contemporary
society. In relations with ‘local, and ‘trans-local’, ‘place’
and ‘culture’, issues of conflict and contest, ecologies, politics
and care practices, common and commonality, institutions and
agencies are addressed. | ||
about artist and participants The book is written by architects, artists, activists, curators,
cultural workers, educators, sociologists, geographers and
residents living in different rural and urban areas in Europe
and is addressed to anyone concerned with the relation between
culture, subjectivity, space and politics today.
