Antidote is an arts initiative that experiments with self-organization and practices of solidarity within the performing arts. I founded it in 2019 and now it has become a Foundation with its own website: https://kunstinitiatiefantidote.cargo.site/ The collective functions as a laboratory for collective and non-hierarchical practices through the creation of festivals, performances and parties. In each Antidote project, we aim to connect the audience to our art in original ways. With a DIY/DIT attitude, we are dedicated to a continuous research into a more transparent, collaborative and solidary arts praxis. Antidote’s core team consists of Koen Bartijn, Doke Pauwels and Bibi Scholten van Aschat.
