Aneta Stojnic, Belgrade Liminal Bodies, (Dis)embodied Subjectivities and Technologies of Control

Abstract: This lecture is to examine the major reconfigurations introduced into the body politics and genealogies by the influence of new technologies (both of insurgency and of control). Therefore, Stojnic argues that it is neither intersectionality not assemblage, but liminality that needs to be in the center of transfeminist genealogies. She will question the meaning of the crucial shift from natural, through cultural to technological bodies in the era of the “society of control” (Deleuze) addressing the manifestations and representations of the body and the corporeal, as socio-cultural, political, psychological, physiological and virtual entities. Contesting the “post-human hype” and taking into the account the genealogy of global changes that lead to the current mass migrations, commonly known as “refugee crises” she will look at the processes of dehumanisation that precede the mechanisms of a subjugation of the other. The question that will be examined is what are the new subjectivities and embodied politics that emerge in such conditions.

Julischka Stengele project with the title FETTVERTEILUNG (fat distribution), at the festival SOHO in Ottakring. It deals with the relationship between nutrition, income and gender, with a focus on fat phobia and classism. www.sohoinottakring.at

Teaser in German formulated by Julischka Stengele: Für die Arbeiterfamilie ist der Braten am Tisch ein Statussymbol, für die junge Akademikerin ist es der Verzicht auf Fleisch oder der Einkauf im Biomarkt, der ihren gesellschaftlichen Stand ausweist. Einige haben wenig Geld aber viel Speck auf den Rippen, andere können sich flache Bäuche leisten. Was hat es damit auf sich? Und: stimmt es überhaupt? So oder so: beim Thema Essen sind der erhobene Zeigefinger, das schlechte Gewissen und die Vorurteile nie weit. Referent_innen sprechen zu Themen wie Fettfeindlichkeit und Diskriminierung von dicken Personen oder den Zusammenhängen von Ernährung, Einkommen und Geschlecht. Thematische Zuckerkunstwerke sorgen dafür, dass der Genuss dabei nicht zu kurz kommt. Anschließend steht dem Publikum das Gespräch offen und alle sind herzlich eingeladen, Kuchen für die gemeinsame Tafel mitzubringen.

GUEST LECTURE by Petra Ponte

In this lecture Petra Ponte will talk about her curatorial practice and upcoming performative project at studio das weisse haus, A Rap on Race Revisited, for which she wants to collaborate with Vienna-based activists, artists, cultural producers and scholars. A Rap on Race (Rassenkampf-Klassenkampf. Ein Streitgespräch) between the acclaimed black novelist, essayist, playwright and social critic James Baldwin (1924-1987) and the celebrated white anthropologist and long-time curator at the American Museum of Natural History Margaret Mead (1901- 1978) will act as overture for the performative project. With A Rap on Race Revisited she aims to work and think through how the words of James Baldwin and Margaret Mead voiced on August 26- 27, 1970 in New York, can speak (again) in 2016 in Vienna, and wants to find out what frictions come into play, what unscripted conversations, feelings, thoughts and disputes would be dragged along with this revisitation.

CV: Petra Ponte is a curator and cultural producer based in Amsterdam. She holds a BA in Theatre Studies and an MA in Contemporary Art History from the University of Amsterdam. Her recent projects include: prospects. a recital (Kunsthalle Düsseldorf, 2015), I/K (Schloss Ringenberg, 2015) Opening Night Series (OAZO AIR, 2014-2015), FATFORM / FORWARD (2012-2014). From June 15 until July 17, 2016 she is curator in residence at studio das weisse haus. Organized by Muzaffer Hasaltay.

Guest Selma Doborac

Screening Those Shocking Shaking Days. Directed by Selma Doborac 88 min, 2016, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina

“Which guerilla liberation force would you join if you had the choice between two possible styles of liberation work?” reads the question posed at the very get-go of Selma Doborac’s film essay which proceeds over the course of the next 80 minutes to ask with unremitting intensity whether cinematic means can be used to represent the phenomenon war. Is this even possible given the Medusa head of war, perpetually sprouting yet another coiling aspect of the human abyss?
Who feels addressed by this question? Who knows what a person engaged by this question imagines? (Hanno Millesi)

SELMA DOBORAC, geb. 1982 in Bosnien und Herzegowina, arbeitet im Bereich des essayistischen und experimentellen Films, der Fotografie sowie der Installations- und Konzeptkunst. Ihre Arbeiten wurden weltweit auf zahlreichen Festivals, in Einzel- und Gruppenausstellungen gezeigt. Ihr Kurzfilm Es war ein Tag wie jeder andere im Frühling oder Sommer. gewann den CROSSING EUROPE Local Artist Award 2014. // Filme (Auswahl): Es war ein Tag wie jeder andere im Frühling oder Sommer.

GUEST LECTURE by Yuderkys Espinosa Miñoso

TITLE: Hacer genealogía de las prácticas del presente: Una crítica a la colonialidad de la Razón feminista desde la experiencia histórica en América Latina. [A genealogy of the practices of the present: A critique of the colonial feminist reason, coming from the historical experience in Latin America]

TRANSLATION Spanish into English by Ronja Vogl MODERATION after the lecture by Marissa Lobo

Summary:

It is about responding to the key question, if we are to propose a genealogical method to be applied to the feminist field, then it translates into: How did we become the feminists who we are? What are the possible conditions that allowed feminism to believe in what it believes, to say what it says, to do what it does, in a region that is geopolitically determined by its status as a "third world" that drags along it the colonial trauma, as a condition of being what we are today.

From these questions emanate the possibility to reflect upon some key issues regarding feminism in Latin America and its history of dependency. Not a Latin American feminism but feminism in Latin America. We see that there is no universal feminism, as it is proposed by the heritage of the Eurocentric modernity. If in the statement that feminism encounters modernity, we do not encounter any surprises, nevertheless we have to ask how you can be prepared/ willing to follow it in regions of the world, where modernity reveals itself only as what it is: racist, Eurocentric, capitalist, imperialist and colonial.

Perhaps women, gender, and despised sexualities have succumbed to the idea, on the basis of theorizing and the feminist thinking that the past has always been worse for us. Maybe we could say that feminism states that our struggle can’t be anything else than modern, if it proclaims modernity as historical time that allows us to break free from it. This argument illuminates the different interests between feminism, and antiracist, anti and de-colonial fights in the region. It allows us to reveal the hidden pattern of feminist fights and its commitment to coloniality.

Coming from the proposal of a genealogy of experience I want to present coloniality, racism and the euro-centrism of the feminist reason and thus to open up the possibility to draw attention to other forms of fights and commitments that come from the margins in order to face these reason.
