Sowing Unrest––the Biennale Reader was published on the occasion of the third Biennale Matter of Art. With newly commissioned as well as republished essays, conversations, poems, and artistic contributions, it grafts the two curatorial threads of the biennale – Aleksei Borisionok’s interest in workers’ movements and Katalin Erdodi’s focus on rural change – in order to talk about the past, present, and future of political movements across the rural–urban divide.

How do people in rural areas organize to effect change in society? How can people strike and achieve their political demands? How can care be organized as a basis for solidarity and mutual aid? We are curious about the various ways in which unrest – a state of dissatisfaction, disturbance, and agitation – can grow in unexpected places.
