The Public Programme of Manifesta 13 Marseille is inhabited by the Sonic, the Visual, the Poetic and the Political. It considers Marseille and the Mediterranean from multiversal perspectives as a place for the transfer of goods, people, knowledge and ideas in order to address the question: How to build future(s) and enable world-making on a more common and just basis?
The programme consists of a one day intensive programme for thinking about restitution, repair and beyond at the Vielle Charité, a three-day series of encounters tackling questions around creative production in the Mediterranean in collaboration with IMéRA institute, Listening Sessions in collaboration with Radio Grenouille and a film programme in collaboration with Vidéodrome 2.
We’ll be looking into current discourses on responsibilities, shared histories, colonial heritage, ecology, reparation and restitution, modernisms, urbanity and their inseparable bond with capitalism and the current crises.

+ FILM PROGRAMME IN COLLABORATION WITH VIDEODROME 2
The Traits d’union.s Film Programme showcases a variety of films by the exhibition’s participants. Many of the participants not only work in film and video, but also other collective formats, including performance and activism. Though most films were experienced in isolation during the recent pandemic, watching and making films should also be a collective experience. Manifesta 13 is thus collaborating with the local cinema collective Vidéodrome 2 to present cinematic works by James Benning, Dennis Cooper & Zac Farley and Trinh T. Minh-ha (VN/US/FR) as well as curated programmes by Tuan Andrew Nguyen and the Center for Creative Ecologies as part of Manifesta’s central exhibition.
