WE CANNOT SAY THAT WE HAVE
ARRIVED SOMEWHERE, YET NEITHER
CAN WE SAY THAT WE HAVEN’T
A Glossary of Commoning Terms


What does it mean to be hospitable, make alliances, or navigate conflicts in the sphere of contemporary art?

As part of the Art Space Unlimited project, we implemented various community-based and participatory programs together with four socially and politically engaged independent art spaces - OFF-Biennale, Budapest, La Escocesa, Barcelona, Shtatëmbëdhjetë / Foundation 17, Pristina and tranzit.cz, Prague. It is our shared desire to open our art institutions toward people who, for various reasons, have difficult, complicated, disabled, or limited access to art, whether as creators, participants, or viewers.

As a conclusion of our eighteen-month cooperation, OFF-Biennale hosted all international partners in Budapest and presented the book We Cannot Say That We Have Arrived Somewhere, Yet Neither Can We Say That We Haven’t—A Glossary of Commoning Terms. The publication is available in six languages. It attempts to provide hands-on and personal reflections on such topics as emotional labour, navigating differences or self-empowerment.

The book is freely accessible and downloadable, both as an e-book and in a printable format (Creative Commons license) on https://emotional-labor.eu/
