Cohab at The Showroom

A project comprised of a series of four ‘keynote’ artists’ productions; local ‘action research’ projects involving artists projects that will be developed with the participation of communities who share the concerns of the project. Cohab investigates meaningful ways in which artists and organisations can be deeply invested within their local contexts and at the same time form close dialogues on an international arena. Drawing on areas of commonality - such as our ‘situated’ ways of working - Cohab will link our work together more closely to explore themes that are relevant to each of us: questions of locality, community and ‘the commons’ in relation to forms of social and economic organisation, and more broadly, questions of cohabitation both on a local and European level, and aim to develop fresh models of how to work together as arts organisations.
