SUMMARY:Summer of MINO - For The Culture
DESCRIPTION:Summer Program 2026\nMINO is excited to announce the open call for FOR THE CULTURE: an interdisciplinary summer program taking place from 7 August until 4 September 2026 in Antwerp. \nFor the culture comes from Afro-American cultural movements and hip-hop communities. It meant showing up for something bigger than yourself\, building collective identity\, visibility and cultural continuity. \nToday\, for the culture is everywhere. Across cities\, communities\, platforms and borders. Artists\, collectives and diasporic communities are shaping culture on their own terms – through art\, music\, fashion\, language\, rituals\, digital platforms and collective practices. Creating spaces to tell stories\, share knowledge and build community. Not because they are asked to\, but because they feel the urgency to. On their own terms. \nAt MINO\, we believe that this is one of the most urgent cultural conversations of our time. Who gets to create culture\, validate it\, claim it. Who shapes the narratives\, the spaces\, the infrastructure. These aren’t abstract questions\, they are what artists\, collectives\, community builders and communities are questioning and answering everyday. This is the space we work in. \nFOR THE CULTURE brings together artists\, makers and collectives around these questions through a multidisciplinary summer programme – exhibition\, public interventions\, screenings\, listening sessions\, conversations and participatory formats. Not to define what culture is\, but to make space for what is already being built. \nFOR THE CULTURE is an open\, evolving and experimental programme. Just like culture itself\, it will be shaped by the people\, practices and conversations that become part of it. \nWe see this open call as a collaboration and an invitation to think together about the questions at the heart of FOR THE CULTURE. We are interested in the fluidity of culture: how it moves\, changes\, travels and takes on new meanings across communities and contexts. \nWhether your contribution takes the form of an exhibition\, screening\, performance\, gathering\, workshop\, publication\, conversation\, intervention or something that does not fit neatly within existing labels\, we would love to hear from you. \nWe are not looking for finished answers. We are looking for practices\, ideas and perspectives that help us think through and respond to these questions together. \nWHAT TO EXPECT\nSelected participants become part of an experimental and collaborative playground where ideas\, practices and projects can be tested\, shared and developed. \nAt MINO\, we value process as much as outcome. We are not a traditional institution or presentation platform\, but a space for experimentation\, exchange\, trial and error. We welcome work-in-progress\, unfinished ideas and practices that are still evolving. \nFOR THE CULTURE is built on reciprocity\, generosity and collective learning. Participants are invited not only to share their work\, but also to contribute to the conversations\, exchanges and connections that emerge throughout the programme.

SUMMARY:Workshop series / What Sounds Like Paint
DESCRIPTION:In this series of four workshops\, Joseph explores together with participants how ‘taste’ shifts across the senses: how the love for our favourite songs can spill over onto the canvas. Participants will not only learn painting techniques\, but also encounter perspectives and references that are less often addressed within mainstream art education. \nJoseph Thabang Palframan (b. 1997\, Windhoek) lives and works as a multidisciplinary artist in Belgium. His practice combines painting with socially engaged\, collaborative projects\, in which he explores how marginalised artists can navigate institutional spaces without being reduced to a token position. His painting often extends into other media\, consistently asking the same question: how do artistic practices survive outside the institution\, and what aesthetics and logics emerge from this? \nThis workshop series is organised in collaboration with Trill vzw as part of SUMMER for MINO\, FOR THE CULTURE; a program about the practices\, communities and spaces that make culture and build worlds around it\, on our own terms. \n**Tickets: **Standard rate: €90 for 4 workshops\, €25 for a single workshopReduced rate: €15 for 4 workshops (only available to those eligible for increased reimbursement) \n*Image: *‘Fragments taken from ‘Music for Sebokeng’\, ink on \, Emile Maurice\, 1986.’ Above& ‘Portrait of Joe Black’\, oil and acrylic on board\, Joseph Palframan\, 2026.’ Below
