HUB IDEA 

Antakya Performative Collective and Janus Artzine joined forces in response to the earthquake that devastated Antakya. Motivated to aid in the city’s reconstruction, they formed a hub focused on the healing power of art. Their public programme aims to create a mobile art space in the form of a caravan for workshops, exhibitions, and creative gatherings accessible to everyone. The caravan serves as a platform for public discussion and dialogue while raising awareness through participatory art products. It seeks to engage the community in dialogue and learning experiences, facilitated by artists and organisers.

The members of Antakya Performative Collective (APC) come from different disciplines and fields of work, such as visual arts, performance art, dance, music, video, illustration, civil society and activism. Collective members have been carrying out activities such as workshops, exhibitions, music and performance events together in Antakya since 2011. APC was established in 2018 to transform all these organically formed collaborations into an interdisciplinary, experimental, investigative culture and arts platform and to open up opportunities for local and transnational collaborations. Taking inspiration from Antakya in its works, APC prioritised creating space for art in daily life in the city and used the entire city as a laboratory.

Janus artzine is an art project which is made of A3 kraft paper with a special folding technique. As two separate artists living in Antakya, we created our own expression space on both sides of the paper, with reference to the image of the two-faced Roman god "Janus". Our goal is to ensure that our work is visible and accessible in Antakya and beyond. We have published five issues at different time intervals since January 2018. We distribute to public places with permission or deliver to individuals by hand or via cargo. We also try to reach interested people through our Janus_artzine Instagram account. The content of the first three issues consists of our own drawings and texts pointing to the historical and cultural structure of Antakya. We continue the process with different content in each issue.

Logbook from Antakya

The "Logbook from Antakya" is an exhibition at the KUB Galerie in Leipzig that presents the results of performances and other artistic workshops held in and around Antakya by local and national artists since April 2024. The exhibition opening will feature live performances by members of the Antakya Performative Collective and Janus Artzine.
Inspired by the healing power of art and aiming to highlight the devastating effects of the earthquake on February 6th and 20th, 2023 that have been mourned and almost forgotten, the exhibition will be on display for one month. It will be accompanied by a rich public program, including screenings, talks, and guided tours.


Logbook from Antakya is created in partnership with KUB Galerie from Leipzig, Germany.
