WHO CARES? - EXPLORING INSTITUTIONAL CARE PRACTICES

As part of the Exhibition On Chewing Shoelaces: Art, Mess and Radical Kinship, we invite you to the Sharing Session ☆☆ Who Cares? hosted by Miriam Wistreich, Director of UKS, Oslo (Young Artists' Society) on Wed 23.9.2026, 14.00-16.00 at kex—kunsthalle exnergasse

What does it mean to embed care within programming, production and organisational culture? And how can care benefit not only artists, but change how institutions themselves operate?
Staff and representatives of art and cultural institutions as well as artists are welcome to explore how care can become part of institutional practice. 
The Sharing Session will be held in English. Register here until September 21.

☆☆ Steal a moment — If you can come on your own, enjoy some uninterrupted time at this event. If not, bring your little ones. We’re happy to have them too.

On Chewing Shoelaces: Art, Mess and Radical Kinship, on view until Sat 24.10.2026
Here, art is made in the margins: between sleepless nights, school runs, leaking bodies, small sticky hands, stolen minutes, and interrupted thoughts. Six artistic positions navigate the glorious hell of trying to make art while caring for others within systems exhausted by demands for productivity.

Supported by Bezirk Alsergrund, Bildrecht​​​​​​​. All the events as part of the exhibtion are in collaboration with Im_flieger, Backpulver and UKS Oslo
