Event Description

Reunión sobre Reunión is a collective and intimate conversation surrounding Zelko's practice and the different editions of Reunión. Reunión is a writing and listening experiment that Dani Zelko has been engaging with many other people since 2015. It results in the creation of books that intervene in current debates and conflicts. Through face-to-face encounters, oral histories are written by hand, collectively edited, printed, read aloud in public events and distributed in local communities and beyond. Reunión has made more than 10 editions and worked with many indigenous and migrant communities across Latin America and Spain.
