About

Making Worlds

CAP (Curating for Advanced Practices) program
Künstlerdorf Schöppingen 

Given the increase of structural inequities and social fragmentation due to geopolitical tensions, the climate crisis and its impact on the global economic system, a paradigm shift in our civilization seems inevitable. The principles, methods, knowledge and epistemologies used in this transition will be decisive for the direction and outcome of this turn. At the interfaces between multiple worlds in tension with each other, the art of our time explores more than ever the creation of bridges, connections, syntheses and ideas that reach beyond the aesthetic realm, counterbalance the catastrophe and actively contribute to building a future for all.

“Making Worlds“ comprises a series of workshops led by artists associated with the Künstlerdorf Schöppingen and a Summer School based on principles of holistic and relational learning. They offer space for experience, empathy, dialog and experimentation on concepts such as knowledge building through interspecies relationships, change through tension, inclusion, spirituality or the playful use of technology.


Distrito Naranja

2020
2021
2022 #DistritoNaranja is a platform dedicated to promoting the work of Colombian artists who, despite all the adversities of today's world, bet on art from a regional perspective. These are artists who, due to their age, their practice, their themes, or their location, are outside the radar of galleries and spaces that commercialize their work. However, despite this, they make art their life and present a diverse vision of the themes, thoughts, and aesthetics of our country and its territories.
