Decentralising Political Economies or DPE is a shared and open-source research platform developed as a partnership between The Whitworth (The University of Manchester, UK), The Institute of Art and Technology at Liverpool John Moores University’s School of Art and Design (Liverpool, UK) and The Association of Arte Útil.
→ dpe.tools is a live and ongoing project that aims to produce a series of online and offline toolkits by which both the physical (and virtual) Office of Useful Art and the Archive of The Association of Arte Útil can be used as resources for social, economic and political change through the uses of art.
→ dpe.tools will develop action research leading up to and beyond The Whitworth's proposed exhibition ‘Economics The Blockbuster’ which is currently scheduled for Spring 2023. In doing so, dpe.tools will also contribute to and extend ongoing research concerning ‘The Constituent Museum’ which was initiated as part of the L’Internationale EU Funded project ‘The Uses of Art: The Legacy of 1848 and 1989’.

→ dpe.tools research platform/channel will actively seek to use and promote the repurposing of social, economic and political theories as the basis for a toolkit or operating system for constituent uses of the Arte Útil online/offline Archive.
→ dpe.tools will also be used as a means to develop research and tools for understanding the Coefficient of art (the degree to which a project can also be said to be an artwork) and art’s potential double ontology (the extent to which a project can be both an artwork and not an artwork at the same time) via the activation of the Arte Útil archive.
→ dpe.tools will operate as a shared resource for rethinking education emphasising on the idea of usership through the development of ongoing and real-world 1:1 scale projects (in which artworks are themselves open-ended and functioning projects in the real world) that will allow for the constituent rethinking of how we approach, understand, use and remake / repurpose art within the context of the Constituent Museum and Art Gallery.
