4.11.2017 (Saturday) Visiting the Mauthausen Memorial

Mauthausen–Gusen concentration camp was the hub of a large group of German concentration camps that was built around the villages of Mauthausen and Sankt Georgen an der Gusen (Gusen) in Upper Austria, roughly 20 kilometers east of the city of Linz. From 1938 to 1945, the Mauthausen concentration camp was at the centre of a system of over 40 subcamps and was the main site of political, social and racist persecution by the National Socialist regime on Austrian territory. Of a total of around 190,000 people imprisoned here, at least 90,000 were murdered. The Mauthausen Memorial is a former crime scene, a place of memory, a cemetery for the mortal remains of thousands of those murdered here and, increasingly, a site of political and historical education. Its task is to ensure public awareness of the history of the Mauthausen concentration camp and its subcamps, the memory of its victims, and the responsibility borne by the perpetrators and onlookers. At the same time it seeks to promote public critical engagement with this history in the context of its significance for the present and future.

Marika Schmiedt und Sebastian Bubner (Künstler und Lehrer)

Im Rahmen der Workshop mit Gastvorträgen, Videoprojektionen und Arbeitssitzungen; Gastkünstlerin: Marika Schmiedt (Wien). Im Fokus steht eine künstlerisch-politische Intervention, in Zusammenarbeit mit der Akademie der bildenden Künste Wien, Fachbereich Konzeptuelle Kunst (Post-conceptual Art Practices).

Rassismus im Schulsystem zur Sprache bringen – Aspekte und emanzipatorische Strategien. In seinem Vortrag beschäftigt sich Sebastian Bubner mit den verschiedenen Arten und Weisen, institutionell, individuell, diskursiv – in welchen sich Rassismus im deutschen Schulsystem täglich stützt und hält. Als Sekundarschullehrer und Teamleiter des sogenannten Willkommensklassenbereichs (für Schülerinnen mit geringen Deutschkenntnissen) an einer Schule in Berlin hat Bubner Einblicke in die „Feinmechanik“ der Rassismusproduktion und ist gefordert, auf diesen Zustand zu reagieren. Anhand einiger Fallbeispiele werden die Bausteine des schulischen Rassismus erläutert und es wird dazu eingeladen, selbst über mögliche Interventionen und Umgehensweisen mit diesen Situationen und systemischen Voraussetzungen nachzudenken.

CV: Sebastian Bubner geb. 1968, ist Künstler und Lehrer und schreibt zu antidiskriminatorischen Themen. www.skipgan-blahstift-spitzer.blogspot.co.at

Guest artists’ presentations:

Vida Guzmić, Croatia Alexandru Raevschi, Moldova Mary-Audrey Ramirez, Luxembourg

Vida Guzmić, Croatia Title: Slippage of representation

Using audio, video and text I research forms of female visibility and presence without ever producing her’s image. With the interest on the passivity of the female character, the male gaze, masquerade, cut up methods, the aim is to examine the possible inverses of imposed representations in a collage of voices and collision of different visual impacts.

CV: Vida Guzmić (born 1986 in Zagreb, Croatia), graduated in 2012 Academy of fine arts, University of Zagreb, Croatia as Summa cum laude magister. She also completed Women's Studies Course, Center for Women's Studies (CWS) and Curatorial Platform programme, Zagreb, Croatia. Organizes projects, workshops and exhibitions in the art collective Space is tactics and Studio Pangolin. Her works has been shown in a number of exhibitions in Croatia and abroad.

Alexandru Raevschi, Moldova Title: Restoring the balance inside the Armenian and Japanese societies through artistic practices

Alexandru Raevschi will share his curatorial experience while realizing the project “Universe 69” in Armenia and Japan (a workshop and two exhibitions in Gyumri and Tokyo). The focus of the project was connected with the tragic events that took place in Armenia and Japan: the earthquake, which happened in Armenia on December 7, 1988 and the events that occurred in the aftermaths of the earthquake on March 11, 2011 in Japan. The curatorial project is as well connected toward a reflection on hyper patriarchal society settings in both contexts, Armenia and Japan, especially in reference to the Armenian society.

CV: Alexandru Raevschi is a Moldavian artist who is presently a PhD student at the Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture, Helsinki, Finland. Current research projects focus on combination of biological science with art through climate change, politics of invisibility, search for the national identity and etc.

Mary-Audrey Ramirez, Luxembourg Title: Scrolling/Crying/Cringing

Scrolling is a natural habit for us: constantly on the phone or computer, looking at ever renewing material, a simple post on the internet can make us feel happy or sad. Comfort and discomfort are so close that our attempts to define these categories leave us with further confusion. I'm interested in failure, disappointment, technological bugs, and uncertainties and try to explore this realm between the technological and natural for possible modes of interaction (or understanding).

CV: Mary-Audrey Ramirez is born 1990 in Luxembourg (city); she studied at Universität der Künste in Berlin with Thomas Zipp. In the past years she had two solo shows at Martinetz (Cologne) in 2015 and 2017. She also participated in group shows at Tropez (Berlin, 2017), Guido W. Baudach (Berlin, 2017), Svit (Prague, 2017), Haus Mödrath (Kerpen, 2017), Kai10 (Düsseldorf, 2017) or Kai Erdmann (Hamburg, 2016).

Guest artists’ presentations: Dalila Gonçalves, Portugal Mila Panić, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Dalila Gonçalves, Portugal Title: Object and matter From experimental play Dalila Gonçalves tests the permeability of materials and processes of artistic practice and daily life. By using video, photography and installation she conceives objects that do not always imply real transformation of things but rather materializations of subtle unexpected, ironic, absurd and metaphorical use of matter. She plays with the very relation of “perception” and the idea of “evidence”. CV: Dalila Gonçalves (born 1982, Castelo de Paiva). Degree in Fine Arts - Painting from the Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Porto (FBAUP, 2005) and Master’s Degree in Visual Arts Education (MA) from the Faculty of Fine Arts and Faculty of Psychology and Education Sciences, University of Porto, 2009 . Regularly exhibits in Institutions and in Galleries in different countries of Europe and South America since 2006.

Mila Panić, Bosnia and Herzegovina Title: Landscape is a work of the mind Landscape is not a space. Landscape is not just a view. It is not a stage. Landscape is not static. CV: Mila Panić (born in 1991, Bosnia and Herzegovina). Graduated from Academy of Arts in Banja Luka (BiH) and hold the Master Degree of Fine Arts at Bauhaus-Universitat Weimar, Germany, department of Art in Public Space and New Artistic Strategies. Live and works in Berlin.
