[excerpt from website]

How are we to understand xenophobic tendencies and how to react to them?

The xeno.no project aims to engage as an online platform of contemporary cultural reflection on a phenomenon that is not a static ideological pattern, but takes on different faces, agendas and forms of establishment.

The site will function as a online database of visual and time-based art to create a readability of existing positions on, about, around and against the normative tendencies within Europe.

* Open call:

For contributions of any production year from artists, activists,

journalists, art critics, philosophers and political scientists and

researchers from the wider cultural field

* Possible topics:

Territory and identity issues, colonial legacy, anti-Semitism,

anti-Islamism, racism, concepts of otherness, gender issues,

perspectives on migration and integration, creolisation,

new class antagonism, queer politics and other related topics.
