PROJECT

TENT: A School of Performative Practices

TENT: A School of Performative Practices, is a space of possibility and imagination, which invites (almost) all inside. It is a temporary, mobile space of mutual learning and collective imagination. TENT uses interactive formats such as talks, residencies, dinners, and temporal togetherness at one institution for specific durations to engage with its politics and practice. It is a space for imagining, thinking, listening, and also responding to social injustices.

TENT as an idea is both, a physical object and a school. It works as a yearly programmed institution. The walls of the TENT are a publishing house, they are used for politics and manifestos. Since June 2021, TENT has been working and learning by cooperating with other institutions, festivals, and schools.

Pankaj Tiwari's artistic approach is based on context and connections, focusing in particular on facilitating locations for knowledge exchange and on curating artistic interventions in public spaces. In January 2020, Pankaj initiated Current: a Space, Amsterdam, which curates performances and worked to build a culture of intersectionality.
