Anti Social Social Club Episode I : The Chamber of the Dispossessed. - Chabanon, Ève; åbäke (ASSC [S.l.], 2019)
The Coalition of the Dispossessed Anti Social Social Club: Episode One, The Chamber Of The Dispossessed, Thursday 15 June 2017, 7pm. On the initiative of srtist Ève Chabanon, around forty people gathered in the council chamber at the town hall of Barking and Dagenham, a borough of outer East London. For one evening, this highly symbolic site, usually closed to the public, welcomed local and non-local Eastbury Community School, artists, a poet and a local councillor. The aim of the Anti-Social Social Club was to create a fictional temporary coalition - that of the dispossesssed - and show the fragility of the democratic apparatus through a performative debate. The evening was led by facilitator and performance artist Chloe Cooper, who invited the assembled guests to talk about themes that are particularly binary and divisive such as: dependence (on money, authority, others) and the suspicion of difference (do we identify with cultural and social others, or do we fear them?), social and economic inclusion and exclusion, states of emergency and the gentrification of the city by art.
