CARTE BLANCHE TO DORA GARCIA PERFORMANCE | 18:00

While studying the conflictive relationship between socialism/revolution and feminism, Dora García came across diaries, notes, and letters from pivotal female figures as Hannah Arendt, Leslie Feinberg, Alexandra Kollontai, Audre Lorde, Rosa Luxembourg, María Dolores González Katarain (Yoyes), and Clara Zetnik, among others. A common theme in these documents is a sense of profound and bitter disappointment.

Dora García proposes a collective exercise: a group reading of the collection she gathered of “Letters of Disappointment”, moderated by her. After the reading the participants are invited to discuss their personal experiences and specific disappointments.
