The Art of Living with Strangers: Urban cohabitation
Printed Project Issue 10 - 'The Art of Living with Strangers'
'The Art of Living with Strangers' curated / edited by Lolita Jablonskiene is based around the experience of the immigrant within their adopted environment and is indebted to the sociologist Zygmunt Bauman's assertions that inhabitants of the contemporary city are -- "permanent strangers," and that cohabitation, according to Bauman, is "an art which, like all arts, requires study and exercise". Moreover, Lolita Jablonskiene describes her edition of Printed Project "as a workshop - constructed in the spirit of Alexander Rodchenko's Workers' Club -- offering socio-political enlightenment, a platform for debate, and a space for the renewal of our energy at the end of a long working day".
