– Combines theoretical insights with hands-on practices, examples and art-works

Neoliberalism has taken autonomous professional values and labour firmly in its grasp. Traditional forms of employment are replaced with post-Fordist conditions in which work has become freelance, mobile, project-based, and temporary. This way of working is not new to artists. They have seen themselves confronted with these precarious conditions for many years. Mobile Autonomy detects what modes of economy and different innovative working modalities artists and other artistic professionals have developed in order to create their work in today’s social, economic and political conditions. Theoretical insights are alternated with hands-on practices, in order to learn from and reflect on contemporary artist’ working conditions.
‘We need to stay mobile to keep our autonomy alive, and we need to develop new autonomous practices to keep our mobility alive.’
