Chto Delat (What Is to Be Done?) is an international collective founded in St. Petersburg in 2003 by artists, philosophers, critics, and writers. Chto Delat’s practice is grounded in collective, interdisciplinary, and non-academic research, developed in close collaboration with social movements, educational institutions, and art organizations, including long-term partnerships in Hamburg. Since its forced emigration in September 2022, Chto Delat has run the School of Emergencies, The urgency of the school was created by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, uprising in Belarus and waves of political refugees from Russia, after growing fascisization of Russian politics. The school fellows together with mentors and invited teachers try to find a new artistic language which are capable of grasping the situation of more and more absurd world.
