Art Borders Project

2017

ArtBordersProject.com: A project initialised in January 2017 to track and record the experiences of artists at borders.

From the website:

"Art knows no borders. This site is building a collection of accounts by and of artists who have been stopped, questioned, harassed, or turned back at borders worldwide, or whose immigration or citizenship status has been used to threaten, intimidate, or curtail their practice.

"As art practitioners, workers, organisations, and institutions, we stand in solidarity with all migrants, refugees, and displaced persons. By bearing witness to the specific effects of border regimes on art and its practitioners, we aim to oppose the discrimination and violence of borders everywhere."
