DoK 15518

DoK stands for Dorf-Kunst and 15518 is the postal code of this region. DoK 15518 is the emergence of a socio-culturally sustainable cultural hub in rural areas by linking three collaboration partners: LandKunstLeben e.V. have been promoting contemporary art, international exchange and socio-spatial structures locally for many years. Haus des Wandels e.V. and ZUSANE e.V. are newer cultural venues in the context of which both artists and cultural workers and their ways of life have settled in the region. As one of Brandenburg's nine cultural anchor points ("kulturelle Ankerpunkte Brandenburgs"), we explore the question of how collaborative and diverse regional development can function from below.

In the form of a cultural syndicate, DoK 15518 is intended to support and promote the various strands of cultural work of the individual projects in the long term. The goal is to organize resources from event technology to publicity towards sustainable and collaborative use.

Cross-project and cross-generational collaboration

We combine over 25 years of experience in the successful implementation of cultural projects in the region through LandKunstLeben e.V. (LKL) as a supporting association with the new creative places Haus des Wandels e.V. (HdW) and Zusammen in Neuendorf S.A.N.D.E. e.V. (ZUSANE). This collaboration has already been in the making for 3 years and is constantly expanding itself. Old hands and newcomers learn here from each other experiences and carry the already existing local cultural work into the future. Together we develop ways of a cross-generational and cross-project cultural practice, a neighborly design of living space on a large area.

Processes of making visible

Art creates reality that can be shared, and is a tool to make visible and retell stories of diverse togetherness. What needs more space? What lies fallow? What forms and structures are already there, who or what wants to connect or just needs support to be seen?

Art and cultural production in the countryside

Does being in the countryside mean being on the edge? Yes, but here there is room for beginnings and events. Something is happening in the countryside. In the beautiful and difficult landscape of Brandenburg, we navigate through the contradictions and are inspired by resistances. The land is full of stories. The old ones that already exist and the new ones that are just emerging: A playing field that gives room for impulses, an experimental site that invites new descriptions. Although the land is emptying, gaps are also air holes through which fresh wind blows. Life forms mingle. Perforated spaces give place to performances.

DoK 15518 ist die Entstehung eines soziokulturell nachhaltigen Kulturknotenpunkts im ländlichen Raum durch die Verknüpfung dreier Kollaborationspartner*innen: LandKunstLeben e.V. fördern seit vielen Jahren zeitgenössische Kunst, internationalen Austausch und sozialräumliche Gefüge vor Ort. Haus des Wandels e.V. und ZUSANE e.V. sind neuere Kulturorte, in deren Kontext sich sowohl Künstler*innen und Kulturschaffende als auch ihre Lebensformen in der Region angesiedelt haben. Als einer der neun kulturellen Ankerpunkt Brandenburgs gehen wir der Frage nach, wie eine gemeinschaftliche und vielfältige Regionalentwicklung funktionieren kann. Im Zusammenspiel von ‘alten Kultur Hasen’ und zwei ‘neuen Kreativorten’ sorgen drei Künstler*innen-Residenzprogramme dafür, dass sich Nachbar*innen im Landkreis Oder-Spree vernetzen, um gemeinsame Termine und Beweggründe zu finden.

In der Form eines Kultursyndikats soll DoK 15518 langfristig die verschiedenen Stränge der Kulturarbeit der einzelnen Projekte im Landkreis und die damit verbundene Regionalentwicklung von unten stützen und fördern. Ziel ist es, Ressourcen von Veranstaltungstechnik bis Öffentlichkeitswirksamkeit hin zu einer nachhaltigen und gemeinschaftlichen Nutzung zu organisieren.
