RAVE east Village Artist Residency

August 8th 8-11 pm

RAVE East Village Artist Residency is a meta-project created by the artists Isabella and Tiziana Pers together with Giovanni Marta and a sanctuary for rescued animals and trees. Since 2011 it supports research, dialogue and production in an experimental and multidisciplinary art project. It deals with the role and responsibility of contemporary art in relation to the otherness represented by animals, as well as indicating the need to reconsider our position in the light of a bio-centric, anti-speciesist perspective. It also offers an experience in which all the participants, artists, philosophers, critics, scientists, writers, architects and activists, get to share food, which is always vegan in respect for all sentient beings, and to share time and space together with trees that we saved from felling and animals that have been saved from slaughter and from consumer mechanisms by Tiziana through her practice Art_History (always in-progress).
