Antropical - Ministry of Strange Affairs (Dobausseministär) - is an international art collective that gets super dooper excited about social, environmental and playful practices. We inspire, guide and facilitate collaborative interdisciplinary projects with the aim of connecting to diverse audiences. This includes long and short term projects such as residencies, interventions, performances, seminars and workshops. Our vision is to create a vibrant, sustainable and global community for the exchange of knowledge, experiences and creativity.

Antropical was founded in 2016 and began as an artist residency in the context of Kolla Festival, Luxembourg. The yearly residencies were organised around artistic research that addressed audience engagement outside an institutional framework, explored through independent art practices. We stayed pupating in our cocoons during 2020, like the rest of the world, hatching plans through electric invisible signals until we can smoosh out again. A conclusive residency edition ran in 2021, before Antropical metamorphosed like a beautiful butterfly, shiny and new and full of brilliant ideas, into the collective network it is today.
