Resistance x Life

We are delighted to welcome the eeden series ‘Resistance x Life’ to the MARKK. Learning about and exploring the world — both within and without — can continue throughout one’s life. Throughout one’s life, a person can grow, learn new things, rediscover old ones, shed layers and transform. Learning to truly be human in times of dehumanisation, oppression, fascist tendencies, military build-up, warmongering and exploitation. Exploring the artificial walls and borders, trenches and chasms that lie between us, which we maintain sometimes consciously, sometimes unconsciously. So how can we learn and grow in solidarity and resistance in these times? How can we live, rather than merely survive?

In the eeden series ‘Resistance x Life’, we set out in search of answers to these questions and invite authors of resistance to get to know them, their books, their thoughts and their perspectives more closely, to immerse ourselves in their words and to engage in conversation with you. In resistance, in solidarity and in connection. As always, the event will take place at eeden, in a unique, intimate and welcoming space.
