JRMiP Congress, 2012

A documentation of the first con­gress of The Jewish Renaissance Movement in Poland (JRMiP), in which inter­na­tional del­e­gates addressed and tried to answer ques­tions regarding the goals and achievements of the movement. The congress was thought of as a platform to col­lec­tively imag­ine a new future and to for­mu­late the con­crete demands of the political-artistic move­ment. 

 

The Congress took place within the frame­work of the 7th Berlin Biennale of Contemporary Art and oper­ated as a sym­bolic par­lia­ment, debat­ing about one ques­tion per day: How should the EU change in order to wel­come the Other? How should Poland change within a re-imagined EU? And how should Israel change to become part of the Middle East?
