Anadolu Kültür has announced the "Future of Future" (ԱԱ / FF / GG) project, aiming to bring together artists from Turkey and Armenia.

The project will be led by Anadolu Kültür in collaboration with the curatorial team of Ruben Arevshatyan, Kevser Güler, Marina Papazyan and Armen Yesayants. 

To be formed through the conversations within the research and production phases of the project, ԱԱ / FF / GG anticipates unfolding as gatherings, workshops, public programmes and exhibitions in different formats in İstanbul, Yerevan and another city in Europe, and materialising in online platforms and a publication to be released by the end of the project.

The project seeks to bring together a select group of artists whose practices make way for the multiplicity and fluidity of Armenia and Turkey's many conditions, positions and identities. We invite applicants who are interested in engaging with the artistic and social genealogies of both countries, traversing their loaded histories and extending along their shared futures.

ԱԱ / FF / GG wishes to propose a gathering plateau for artists whose approaches are invested in conceiving futures in relation but not limited to discourses on togetherness, separation and segregation; new and old forms of sociality and solidarity; diverse community-building practices and past, present and future technologies. Our main aim is for the project to serve as a ground to reflect on and embody ways of being together, as this seems to be ever so pervasive and undeniably urgent. (AÖ/VK)
