Art is Illegal, Cultural workers are censored, Voices are muted. 'Libraries Are Not Supposed To Be Quiet' responds to current political uncertainties with a sonic archive and an intervention performance program in public libraries across the Netherlands. Not a space for paranoia but a common ground where we can research, prepare, speculate and build backup plans for when we need it. From durational rituals, to live actions, the concept and title serves as a reminder: Archives Are Loud, it aims to perform and activate existing knowledge, hiding in plain sight. Sustaining a loud echo in the public sphere while the world moves on.
