Basecamp

Basecamp for Tactical Imaginaries unbuilds and rebuilds cultural infrastructure to collectively confront the urgencies of today.

To meet this moment, in which political, social, economic, and climate crises overlap and amplify each other, requires direct action and intervention. Basecamp radically embodies cultural infrastructure in order to leverage the imagining possible for it. Imagining is central to life in which we convene for resilience, survival, renewal and repair. Basecamp offers itself as site and structure towards intimacy, critique, exploration, possibility, and action.

BAK, basis voor actuele kunst, Utrecht is a base for art, theory, and social action. BAK is committed to the notion of art as a public sphere and a political space, and provides a critical platform for aesthetico-political experiments with and through art. BAK brings together artists, thinkers, and other members of the precarious classes to imagine and enact transformative ways of being together otherwise.
