A participatory food performance by Michael Kalivoda connecting collective cooking, reading and the history of the anarchist movement during the Spanish Civil War.

In collaboration with COURIC DESIGNS and JAN MAROT,
CNT-AIT GRANADA & NIÑXS DE LA NOCHE at the Sacromonte Caves.
Performed together with comrades Fran, Husein and Tamara.
ALL VEGAN MENU
calçots on the grill · romesco sauce
green beans · onion · tomato
cauliflower · aioli · chili · crispy garlic oil
fried milk · cinnamon · glacé sugar
loaves of bread, enough for a brigade of anarchist militiamen
We started the visit from Plaza Nueva at 7:00 p.m.
A guided tour through the history and social environment of the Albaicín and Sacromonte neighbourhoods. We talked about the history of the anarchist movement and the working class that lived and worked there, organised and fiercely fought the Francoist fascist troops with only a few weapons and explosive devices of their own manufacture.
And the Children of the Night, who were crucial in helping anarchists flee the occupied city of Granada, as in the first days after brutally taking the city the fascists executed more than 3,000 men and women. And, of course, the armed resistance continued. Waiting for the arrival of the anarchist Columna Maroto, which never reached Granada. And through the Quero Brothers well into the 1960s.
“Fascism is not discussed. It is destroyed.” — Buenaventura Durruti
21:30 h · Social Center Cuevas Niñxs de la Noche
After the uphill walk, we gathered in the caves to talk about Buenaventura Durruti, tell anecdotes from his life and read from his diary as a recipe book. We also learned about the history of the book The Cook of Durruti from comrade Fran, who participated in the first Spanish edition, and about the woman who wrote it, Nadine, who recorded her memories of the Civil War and the Spanish Revolution.
We cooked some of the recipes and heard personal stories from Nadine’s book about when, where and under what circumstances they were prepared.
