Manifesto is an art collective and intellectual movement composed of artists, filmmakers, curators, writers, art theorists, historians, architects, and publishers, from various countries, engaged in Albanian contemporary art. In collaboration with the DebatikCenter of Contemporary Art and ZETA Center for Contemporary Art, the Manifesto art collective has developed a series of projects, Manifesto Hijacking (2022),[1] Manifesto Desertion (2023),[2] and Manifesto Great Wave (2024),[3] which offer a deconstruction of the Albanian art scene[4] and the way it is enmeshed with the power of the Albanian oligarchy.[5]
