Resilients occupy Hotel Berger in Brussels

In Hotel Resilients, behind the doors of ten hotel rooms, you will encounter unusual stories, performances and installations.

As part of the Resilients project, Performing Pictures exhibited at Hotel Resilients – an encounter with people who prototype possible futures as artistic explorations in living and working environments. The rendezvous took place at Hotel Le Berger in Brussels (http://lebergerhotel.be/), on 23 March 2013 between 18:00–21:00.

In Hotel Resilients, the reflections, experiments and future plans of the Resilients team were transmogrified into intimate and clandestine encounters behind the doors of ten hotel rooms, where you can discover several collected stories, performances and installations. Visitors were invited to share, deliberate and speculate on the range of resilient creative practices in Europe.

About Resilients

Resilients transform the concept of resilience into concrete practice as intentional voyages, experimental situations and real-life labs. Spanning several countries, numerous roads, paths, rivers, canals, and living labs, the wide geographical spread of the Resilients' activities is mirrored in the diversity of their practices. From biking, hiking and boating to growing, gardening and future-building – in all cases they

seek to step beyond the bounds of theoretical debate to explore and embed cultural resilience in creative practice.

Resilients partners: FoAM and nadine (Belgium), Atol (Slovenia), Central Saint Martins (UK), Performing Pictures (Sweden), and Time's Up (Austria).

With the support of the Culture Programme (2007–2013) of the European Union, the Flemish Authorities and de Vlaamse Gemeenschapscommissie.
