Civil Society Reimagined Book presentation Marina Gržinić, Sophie Uitz, Jovita Pristovšek (Eds.), Civil Society Reimagined. Citizens’ Memories and Imaginaries: Democratic Citizenship, Munich: kopaed 2024

The project Civil Society Reimagined. Citizens’ Memories and Imaginaries: Democratic Citizenship focused on communities that have historically been affected by oppression, pushed to the edge of society: Migrants, Queers, and Jews, in the Austrian context. The book documents, how social and community issues can be addressed in new ways, by combining Citizen Science with arts and artistic research. With high school students as citizen artists and scientists, the project aimed to examine critically what it means to be – or not to be – a citizen, and how to develop collective strategies to confront states of exclusion and marginalization.

Finn Mühl Title: Fucking Disability Performance: Spoken Word/Poetry

The story of one’s disability is a sad and tragic yet inspiring story. For abled bodies and minds. For myself it’s more like everyday life and how I navigate my life in the society I belong to. And when part of your life serves the able-bodied people out there as "trauma porn" (or just porn) you get to experience a walk on the fine line between fetishization and being infantilized or denied a sexuality when you are just what you are: A person with a disability. That loves, laughs and lives. And fucks. CW: Sexual Topics, 18+ advised

MeJee German Pop, Cute and Kitschy, concert

German Pop Duo, formed by the siblings Melina and Till. Their work is very much interconnected and mostly indivisible as an artistic duo. Influenced by different genres they are working creatively with voice and sound aesthetics. Using spheric soundscapes and catchy choruses, they are creating different characters that are subverting normative ideas of love and friendship and the construction of the self in a playful way.

Stinknormale Durchshnittskunst, 2023 Installation

The work Sinking Normal Average Art deals with the question of how objects that are artistically produced but not called art function in an exhibition space. The work consists of a pen holder made by Nathalie Ann Köbli and Anikó Köbli. The base of the sculpture features excerpts from an interview Nathalie conducted with Anikó about the work. Mother and daughter talk about what it means to make art as a working mother with an immigrant background and why Anikó sees herself as a stinking normal average person (although she is quick to point out that she never actually stinks) and not as an artist.

Finn Mühl Title: Filth (Is good for your stomach)< /span> Film installation

In times when the trans* community faces incredible hardship and hostility, it’s imperative to remind oneself that our life and joy are political. So is our pleasure. To love the bodies we inhabit, to love these othered bodies, to enjoy them becomes a radical stance against the ever-ongoing narrative of the "wrong body" and the threats and violence that want to rob us of our visibility, hope, and joy. Queerness and kink share a history. Kink belongs to pride. And in times when becoming "more digestible" for the norm and distancing yourself from the misfits to claim normality becomes a point of discussion, I’d say that a bit of filth is good for the gut.

Aryana Sheibani Title: Palazzo Potzblitz Found objects and images, photography, machine sewing, audio, and text

This piece delves into the fascinating life of my great-grandmother, Ella, who coincidentally shares my exact birthday but with a 70-year difference. It juxtaposes unearthed images from her modeling career in the 1950s and 1960s with snapshots of the “Kornspeicher,” an old corn granary in Potzneusiedl that she transformed into her residence. The accompanying text and audio recordings weave a rich tapestry of her life’s myriad tales. The interplay of these elements offers a glimpse into her intricate personality and the diverse facets of her life. PHOTO: Aryana Sheibani, installation, 2023. Copyright author
