As a pooled collective resource, lumbung combines not only, time, ideas, and human resources, but also knowledge. lumbung knowledge collects all offers and projects of documenta fifteen based on the production and sharing of knowledge between visitors, art mediators, lumbung artists and different initiatives from Kassel and the world.
The sobat-sobat, the art mediators of documenta fifteen, play a crucial role in lumbung knowledge. sobat-sobat is an Indonesian word meaning friends. As friends, the sobat-sobat accompany visitors and artists during the 100 days of the exhibition. In dialogue and through the practice of storytelling, they are an active and creative part of lumbung knowledge and its cosmology. Together with the participants, they experience encounters, build bridges, and discover new approaches.
