Bibliothek der Künstler*innen, Weimar (Library of FLINTA* Artists, Weimar)

Digital and physical archive, 2021-Ongoing. In collaboration with Sophie Foster.

The Library of FLINTA* Artists, Weimar, is an artistic project that exists as a growing archive alongside a public outreach programme around a collection. This collection includes donated and found secondary material such as artworks, documents and images that form a usable resource to contribute to the mediation of the city’s resident FLINTA*-artists, past and present. Due to its ever-changing nature, the library can exist in many forms and spaces, both digital and physical. The aim is to act as a meeting place to collaborate, research and share with others about the collection. This will initiate events such as workshops, exhibitions and performances.
