Salon Series: Infrastructures of Voice

14th November | Geneva

Building on this month’s symposium by the Swiss Institute for Art Research (SIK-ISEA) in Zürich on Swiss women artists and their historical networks, and taking its publication series On Words as both point of departure and working model, the salon brings together guest speakers to open a conversation around the past and present infrastructures that hold and circulate our work.

What does it take for women’s voices to be heard within and beyond the art world today? Is the goal simply to gain visibility, or is it to build stronger, more sustainable networks of collegiality?

Cultural professionals are invited to consider how more supportive and connected ways of working can be created and sustained. What does it mean to truly think and act en réseau? How might stronger networks challenge the professional and intellectual isolation often embedded in existing structures?

Conceived as an active space for exchange and collaborative thinking, we will explore practical ways to build networks that resist the competitive hierarchies of the traditional cultural sector.

The event is open to AWITA members.
