Book Launch: The Second World Congress of Free Artists Tuesday, October 22, 2013 6:308pm ICI Curatorial Hub 401 Broadway, Suite 1620 New York, NY 10013 FREE Camel Collective (Anthony Graves, Carla Herrera-Prats, and Lasse Lau) will launch its book, The Second World Congress of Free Artists, published in conjunction with Aarhus Kunsthal, Denmark. The Second World Congress of Free Artists is a loose collection of scripts representing a number of ventures on the topics of artistic pedagogy, alternative forms of education, and teaching art under the new conditions presented by neoliberal universities and colleges. The scenes in the book were written by contributing authors and dramatized through an intensive editorial process, resulting in an experimental and critical look at the educational turn in artistic practice. The evening will consist of a series of performative readings. Contributors to The Second World Congress of Free Artists: Camel Collective (DK/US/MX) Mirene Arsanios (LB) UKK (DK) The YES!
