The Manifesto subsequently became translated into several languages and included in different publications and exhibitions.
In this episode she talks with Sophie Hope about The Experimental Station for Research on Art and Life, described as “a bet and a promise, an experiment, and an investment into a future we can still shape”.
The station began as “a joint venture of a group of artists, curators, theorists, economists and others, who, together with tranzit.ro, co-own and co-manage a plot of land in the village Silistea Snagovului, 30 km north of Bucharest, in the proximity of a protected natural area (forest and lake)”. Raluca describes its genesis and its evolution.
