Over the past months, a growing number of artists, writers, curators, and editors in our midst have been penalized for expressing solidarity with Palestinian life. Exhibitions and artwork sales have been cancelled, fees rescinded, residencies revoked, jobs lost.
Bidoun is collecting information about specific incidences of loss of work and income directly related to Palestinian solidarity among culture workers. Such information is of unequivocal historical import — a crucial window onto cultural life today.
At the same time, we will be making a limited number of microgrants available to support affected individuals.
To those interested, please write to [email protected] by June 15 with subject header SOLIDARITY.
Please include detailed information about the incident in question and your current state.
This initiative is supported by the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation.
