Kirsty Kross, Lost-and perhaps even possibly found, 2012

The Network is a fundamental organization in the artistic landscape of Berlin. Without the Network, many of the support structures that have been built in recent years simply would not exist. Unionizing has always been problematic in a sector like the art sphere where the construction of the worker has been historically based on the idea of the author, and therefore the ego. In order to achieve change, cooperative models like the Network are a must. The challenge is how to create belonging from difference.Alle guten Dinge haben etwas Lässiges und liegen wie Kühe auf der Wiese.I wish that politicians would ­realize how important funding structures are and how much these can shape an art scene – shape a city.
