About MANIFESTO:
How can artistic thinking be a meaningful tool in the midst of a global crisis? What is the role of creatives in reimagining our world when great upheavals create openings for change? Right here, right now?

Manifesto is a journey by modernist and contemporary artists, writers, and philosophers who during tumultuous times use manifestos outlining their creative principles to break with the disintegrating past and point towards a new future.

Starting May 1st, City Lights and Gray Area will bring together artists, actors, performers, writers, and cultural activists to perform readings of famous artists’ manifestos to support a collaborative, collective poetic reflection on current societal and economic upheavals. The manifestos will be showcased daily on Gray Area Patch and form a collective community vocabulary for creative intervention during this great 21st-century pandemic.
We invite the global creative community to submit their interpretations of historical manifestos or suggest new visions in the form of video art, interactive art, performance, painting, and writings.
