Opening exhibition Aaron Kimmig: Instead of Being Omniscient

Photon Gallery Vienna: Zieglergasse 34 1070 Vienna

The exhibition at Photon Gallery Vienna presents works by the winner of the 9th consecutive edition of the Different Worlds 2021 Open Call, Aaron Kimming.

Aaron Kimmig convinced the international jury with his cleverly conceived and executed project Xinjiang Sentinel-2 (2021). The conceptual basis of the project is rooted in the critique of human rights violations in the context of AI technology, geopolitics, state oppression and dictatorship or, as he calls it, the "dictatorship of algorithms" in relation to the Muslim Uyghur minority in China, visually articulated through publicly available satellite images.

In the aforementioned winning project Xinjiang Sentinel-2 (2021), the artist refers to the increasing use of algorithms by the Chinese authorities to suppress and control the Muslim minority, often leading to their detention in internment camps. On the other hand, algorithms and satellite imagery help document cultural destruction and human rights violations by the Chinese state. The project charts the growth of these camps and the destruction of cultural heritage in Xinjiang using publicly available satellite images/photos that Kimmig overlays into abstract compositions. The original satellite images of the detention camps can be found on his website dc.nanu-c.org.

Aaron Kimmig (1989, AT) graduated in International Development from the Main University of Vienna in 2019. In 2017, he embarked on postgraduate studies in Post-conceptual Art at the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna, and has been working at the self-organized webdesign/full-stack development collective convive.io since 2016. His work is focused on society, technology and representations of nature. He exhibited in various solo and group shows.

Promotion of the zine by the leaders of the workshop A2 on wtf is non binary university?

Yours sincerely, A… non-binary University

Establishing itself as a non-binary university is a declared aim of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. For this, the academy has already received the Diversitas Award in 2016.

Until recently, it was not possible for all students of this non-binary academy to study under their name, if this name did not match the legal names on their ID cards. We, the non-binary university, now stand by this name and stand by our trans and non-binary students, as we do not want to make empty promises. Yours sincerely, A… non-binary University

Bio:

WTF is a non-binary University... This is a question the non-binary and trans students at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, have been asking ourselves for a while now. This semester, a few of us got together and discussed what's actually going on...

Realized in the workshop A2, Studio Conceptual Art, IBK. The workshop was supported by the Coordination Office for Advancement of Women | Gender Studies | Diversity; Mag.a Dr.in Ingrid Schacherl

REFLECTIONS ON THE VENICE BIENALLE EDITION 2022, by Grzinic and Mika Maruyama

at 15.00, SECOND

www.akbild.ac.at

Mika Maruyama, lecture Title: Intimacies from Colonial Division to Technological Surveillance

Mika Maruyama talks about her doctoral research on intimacy: how and what intimacy has been (re)used and naturalized to shape society through everyday practices? Discussions of intimacy that play out on multiple levels are monitored and punished as invisible and instrumentalized by being linked to the construction of gender, sexuality, and race through media and surveillance technology with new forms of security and governmentality. Confronting invisible/visible relationships that are intimately connected through different lines of demarcation is a way to understand how different conditions are interconnected and sometimes bridge the differences created by centuries of colonial structures.

CV Mika Maruyama

Mag. Mika Maruyama, born in Japan, lives in Vienna. She is a writer, curator, and researcher whose theoretical work focuses on the intersections of queer and feminist theory, as well as the convergence of media culture and the politics of the body. She holds a master's degree in philosophy from Yokohama National College in Japan and is currently a PhD candidate at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. Her interdisciplinary practice ranges from curating and zine-making to collaborative artistic practices motivated by her interest in counter-narratives and transcultural representation that challenge dominant historical narrative and normativity. In 2018, she co-founded Multiple Spirits, a queer feminist art zine, with artist Mai Endo.

14 June 2022, Tuesday At 19.00 lecture presentation, introducing artist-in-residence Zara Julius at WeltMuseum Wien.

WHERE: Welt Museum Wien, Heldenplatz, 1010 Wien

FREE TICKETS AVAILABLE

CV: Zara Julius is an interdisciplinary social practice artist, researcher and vinyl selector based in Johannesburg, South Africa. She is also the founder of Pan-African creative research and cultural storytelling agency, KONJO. With a background in anthropology, religious studies and photography, her work is concerned with the relationship between performativity, frequency, concealment and fugitivity in the settler (post) colony. Working with sound, video, performance and object based installation, Zara Julius' practice involves the collection, selection, and creation of archives through extensive research projects. The bulk of Zara's projects have focused on the performance of sonic, spiritual and oceanic mobilities of rapture and socio-political rupture across the (post)colony, and on (post)apartheid narratives around race, place and music as they pertain to intimate archiving practices as sites of refusal. She holds a BAHons in social anthropology from the University of Cape Town and a MAFA in Fine Art from the University of the Witwatersrand, both with distinction.

Open to the general public. "Will you marry me?" Marriages of convenience in times of crises. The Nazi era and nowadays.

With Henrie Dennis and Prof. (FH) Dr. Irene Messinger, FH Campus Wien, social work

Organized by the Post-Conceptual Art Studio/IBK / prof. Marina Grzinic/ Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. Event supported by Afro Rainbow Austria. www.akbild.ac.at

SUMMARY: Marriages of convenience (MOC) during the Nazi regime allowed persecuted women to flee from the Third Reich to a country of exile, to ensure their stay there or to prevent deportation, by marrying a foreign national for papers only. Irene Messinger traced and analyzed 100 cases of women who tried to save their life that way. Their stories underline the importance of pre-existing networks, be it family members or politically like-minded people as an active part in escaping from the Nazi regime (Irene Messinger).

In reference to nowadays, why are there doubles standards? Who profits from these standards? Who sustains these standards? Whose safety is justified and prioritized? Who deserves to marry to save a life and who deserves to be married to be saved?

Cv's Henrie Dennis is art curator and activist who advocates for the visibility, lives, and realities of queer Africans.

Irene Messinger is a political scientist whose award-winning PhD thesis and book deals with MOC in the Austrian Alien Law (2012) from an intersectional perspective. 2013-2016 she was focusing on MOC during the Nazi period. In 2017, she published the commented memoirs of Anita Bild, a persecuted Viennese dancer who continued her career in the UK due to a MOC in 1939. Her research agenda focuses on Migration Policies and Migration Research, as well as Biographies, Gender and Social Justice. She teaches at the University of Vienna and at the University of Applied Sciences, Department for Social Work.
