Jeanne van Heeswijk is a Rot­ter­dam based artist who facil­i­tates the cre­ation of dynam­ic and diver­si­fied pub­lic spaces to »rad­i­cal­ize the local.« Her long-scale com­mu­ni­ty-embed­ded projects ques­tion art’s auton­o­my by com­bin­ing per­for­ma­tive actions, dis­cus­sions, and oth­er forms of orga­niz­ing and ped­a­gogy to assist com­mu­ni­ties in tak­ing con­trol of their futures. Her ongo­ing research train­ing for the »Not Yet« devel­ops a cur­ricu­lum of com­mu­ni­ty learn­ings through the­o­ret­i­cal frame­works, per­for­ma­tive work­shops, cre­at­ing »learn­ing objects,« and devel­op­ing test sites to enact train­ing for the »Not Yet.«
