Michiel Vandevelde

         Every weekend of Kunstenfestivaldesarts there will be a collective reading session in relation to The Political Party — LIBRARY. On the invitation of Michiel Vandevelde; dramaturg Kristof van Baarle, curators Laura Herman (La Loge) and Charlotte Van Buylaere (Netwerk Aalst), researcher Livia Andrea Piazza, and curator Aneta Rostkowska (Akademie der Künste der Welt, Cologne) each propose a short text to be read and reflected upon collectively.
