Participation requires no prescribed format or scale: it builds on each institution\u2019s existing programme, communities, collections, site and capacities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Created by artist Bill Balaskas and developed in collaboration with the Global Commission on the Economics of Water(GCEW) and Anna Dupont, co-curator of GCEW follow-up initiatives, Flying Rivers is a cultural response to the Commission\u2019s pivotal final report, The Economics of Water: Valuing the Hydrological Cycle as a Global Common Good, published in October 2024. Foregrounding water as a vital natural resource alongside the human right to safe water and sanitation, the report advances a radical proposition: the hydrological cycle must be recognised and governed as a \u201cglobal common good.\u201d Flying Rivers was announced and developed in 2025 through a sequence of three events presented in the official public programme of the 19th Venice Architecture Biennal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flying Rivers welcomes institutions across all geographies, scales and models: museums and galleries of contemporary, modern, medieval and ancient art; organisations dedicated to archaeology, architecture, design, film, photography, natural history and science; interdisciplinary and discipline-specific, collecting and non-collecting institutions; heritage sites, archives, libraries, cultural centres, foundations, biennials, community-led and artist-run spaces\u2014and other institutional forms not named here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participating institutions will receive a visual communication toolkit\u2014including posters, digital banners, artwork tags and projections\u2014as well as a wide range of learning resources. The programme will also facilitate exchanges with scientists, activists and researchers. Participating institutions will also be invited to shape a new framework for climate action through the Flying Rivers International Museums Consortium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Weitere Informationen gibt es unter: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyingrivers.art\/news\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1h8TdcgL9GO-gKWc3VmX4saFE-FhQOSnd\/view\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>flyingrivers.art<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-transform:uppercase\"><strong>KONTAKT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mail: <a href=\"mailto:info@flyingrivers.art\" data-type=\"mailto\" data-id=\"mailto:info@flyingrivers.art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">info(at)flyingrivers.art<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3345,"template":"","tags":[38],"class_list":["post-8571","call","type-call","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-extras"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kunstbuero-bw.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/call\/8571","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kunstbuero-bw.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/call"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kunstbuero-bw.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/call"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kunstbuero-bw.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3345"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kunstbuero-bw.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kunstbuero-bw.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
