I’m happy to announce the launch of the first issue of the ArtLeaks Gazette, featuring an essay on my current project Non-Participation. The official public launch of the ArtLeaks Gazette which will take place at the Brecht Forum in NYC on Saturday, May 4th from 7 PM.

The publication will be available online and in print at the beginning of May 2013, and will be followed by a series of debates in the near future.

Artleaks was founded in 2011 as an international platform for cultural workers where instances of abuse, corruption and exploitation are exposed and submitted for public inquiry. After almost two years of activity, some members of ArtLeaks felt an urgent need to establish a regular on-line publication as a tool for empowerment, reflection and solidarity.
