The “art” of resource development: supporting We Are Here in post-crisis NL

This presentation considers an ongoing collaboration between We are Here, a self-organized group of undocumented people based in the Netherlands, and “Here to Support” a group of documented artists who have organized to assist them. Here to Support uses the artistic resources at its disposal – art’s social forms, institutional arenas, and funding infrastructures – in its support of WAH. What does art, specifically, offer to such a political partnership, given the violence of state exclusion?
