The Funambulist Constellations is our attempt at rethinking our presence in the struggles that have sculpted our political and pedagogical commitments. This two-day event comprises discussions, workshops, open sessions, public podcast recordings, film screenings, reading spaces, activities for children, and shared meals, each corresponding to the specific purpose of sharing knowledge and exchanging ideas in service of local struggles, both in France and in the geographies from where our international guests join us (South Africa, Egypt, and Canada).
DOC is a space for artistic production and presentation located at 26 Rue du Docteur Potain, 75019 Paris. Founded in 2015, it is a multifaceted space that brings together a variety of artistic practices (visual arts, photography, crafts, performing arts, music, jewelry making, writing, video editing, etc.) and artists. For over ten years, DOC has provided a space for creation, connection, mutual support, and collaboration for Parisian artists and craftspeople. In addition, DOC offers a unique, high-caliber artistic program, always with pay-what-you-can admission.
DOC is also a collective—formally organized as a nonprofit association under the 1901 law—that manages and brings this space to life. This collective is made up of nearly 100 members, all of whom are artists or artisans in residence. A governance model based on self-management has developed, organized through a monthly general assembly and steering committees dedicated to various themes.
The association has nine specialized art studios open to residents as well as to the general public: woodworking, metalworking, painting, sewing, offset printing, video post-production, sound, and screen printing. For more information on this topic, contact us at contact@doc.work.
