Opening of the show Muslim*Contemporary (A2) Title: “Mirror, Mirror on the Wall. Are We Too Muslim for This Country?”

Salam Oida invites you to this year’s edition of Muslim*Contemporary, stepping into a world of fairy tales and dreams while raising profound questions about identity, belonging, and social participation. Through performances, exhibitions, and discussions, the festival amplifies the often unheard voices of artists affected by racism and discrimination, bringing them into public spaces. Under the motto, "Mirror, mirror on the wall, are we too Muslim/too Black/too migrant for this country?" the festival critically examines structural challenges within Austria's art and cultural sector. Together, we create spaces where dreams and desires can flourish and new narratives come to life.

Prof. Dr. FATIMA EL-TAYEB, Yale University, US Talk Title: Transformative Archives and Queer Spacetime

Fatima El-Tayeb will join online to present her perspective on transformative archives as spaces of possibility and connection, and queer diasporic spacetime as a challenge to the exclusionary spatiotemporality of European colonial modernity. She will discuss the centrality of these concepts in creating a decolonial approach to community knowledge production and preservation. Through theoretical framing and personal encounters with various archives, El-Tayeb will conclude with reflections on the Intersectional Black European Studies Project (InBEST) as an evolving transformative archive.

Panel Title: Transformative Archives: Art, Belonging, and the Marginalized Experience

This panel brings together voices from marginalized communities to explore the role of transformative archives in art, culture, and knowledge production. Building on themes from Fatima El-Tayeb's lecture, the discussion will focus on how marginalized, racialized, and diasporic communities challenge exclusionary narratives and create new spaces for connection and possibility. Panelists will share their experiences navigating the intersections of identity, art, and community-building, reflecting on how they contribute to decolonial approaches in the production and preservation of cultural knowledge.

LECTURE & TALK

Prof. Dr. RUHA BENJAMIN Lecture “Race to the Future? From Artificial Intelligence to Abundant Imagination”

Moderation: Marina Grzinic, Anna Gaberscik

A world without prisons? Ridiculous. Schools that foster the genius of every child? Naïve. Work that is fulfilling and fairly compensated? Impossible. Technology designed for the collective good? Inconceivable. A society where everyone has food, shelter…love? In your dreams. EXACTLY. In this talk, Ruha Benjamin takes us into the liberating power of the imagination. Deadly systems shaped by white supremacy, patriarchy, capitalism, colonialism, and eugenics emerged from the human imagination, and have real-world, often deadly impacts. To fight harmful systems and create a world in which everyone can thrive, we will have to imagine things differently. Drawing on work that critically examines tech-mediated inequities and her engagement with grassroots approaches to viral justice, she offers a pragmatic and poetic approach to worldbuilding that invites each of us to consider the role we play in maintaining or transforming the oppressive status quo.

Ruha Benjamin is Alexander Stewart 1886 Professor of African American Studies at Princeton University, founding director of the Ida B. Wells Just Data Lab, and award-winning author of Race After Technology: Abolitionist Tools for the New Jim Code (2019), Viral Justice: How We Grow the World We Want (2022), and Imagination: A Manifesto (2024). Benjamin earned a BA in Sociology and Anthropology from Spelman College, MA and PhD in Sociology from UC Berkeley, and postdoctoral fellowships at UCLA’s Institute for Society & Genetics and Harvard’s Science, Technology & Society Program. Ruha Benjamin is also the recipient of fellowships and awards from the American Council of Learned Societies, National Science Foundation, Marguerite Casey Foundation Freedom Scholar Award, and President’s Award for Distinguished Teaching at Princeton.
