Grant supporting The School of Everything at the Parliament of Bodies
Joulia Strauss, Molotus
At Parko Eleftherias, Athens Municipality Arts Center and Museum of Anti-dictatorial and Democratic Resistance, Vassilissis Sofias, Athens
A meeting of initiatives which aims to transform the European educational system. We are building an educational system that consists of politically motivated and artistic initiatives for sharing knowledge, and of proposals by thinkers who see education as decisive for social change. Texts, documentation, manifestos, and sketches of educational models are united in a symposium entitled “The School of Everything.” The symposium takes place in both Kassel and Athens. We shift from learning to sharing. We decriminalize sharing because we would like to enjoy the pleasure of giving. We liberate ourselves from the strictures of “homo sapiens,” a construct imposed upon life. We intend to transform the educational system of Europe.
