Program
BAK programming combines the artistic, experiential, theoretical, and political so as to imagine and enact transformative ways, with and through art, of being together otherwise. BAK’s current research trajectory Propositions for Non-Fascist Living (2017–ongoing) is prompted by the dramatic resurfacing and normalization of fascisms, historical and contemporary. BAK organizes exhibitions, lectures, publications, workshops, and composite performative conferences with exhibitionary, discursive, and performative elements.

ULTRADEPENDENT PUBLIC SCHOOL
Ultradependent Public School unfolds as the public negotiation of a curriculum to learn what we really need to enact the worlds we really want. Emphasizing study as a radically collective, public labor that lives in-between institutionalized hierarchies, UPS inhabits the edges between formal classrooms and everyday life.

Call the Witness
groepstentoonstelling door Suzana Milevska
Zeven bijzondere kunstenaars nemen deel aan de tentoonstelling Call the Witness, die actief vanuit hun Roma-identiteiten werken en deze ook ontstijgen. Hun werken zijn ‘getuigenissen’, die in hun eigen specifieke taal getuigen van vroeger leed (zoals de Holocaust) en van tegenwoordige en toekomstige angsten, die nauw verbonden lijken met het bestaan van de Roma in onze wereld. Elk van deze kunstenaars zoekt naar andere mogelijkheden, en stelt ons vanuit de Roma-werkelijkheid voor hoe de dingen anders zouden kunnen zijn.
