Presentation: Brigitte Zika-Holoubek and the Names Project Vienna

Brigitte Zika-Holoubek, born in the summer of 1948, has a personal and vocational connection to Vienna’s LGBTIQ community. In the late 1980s, she supported over 600 people through their journey with HIV/AIDS, accompanying them until their deaths. This role connected her with HOSI Wien (Homosexual Initiative of Vienna), where activist Friedl Nussbaumer, who lost his partner Michael Handl to AIDS in June 1992, wanted to create a memorial in his honor. Thus, the Names Project was established, inspired by the original Names Project from the U.S., which began in 1985 and today consists of approximately 50,000 panels.

Moderation: Jupiter Rhea Braun is an artist whose work primarily spans performance, video art, writing, and the organization of various art venues. Under the pseudonym Lady Nutjob, Jupiter Rhea Braun also performs as a drag queen in various shows and activities for both adults and children.

Organized within the seminar on "AIDS, East Germany, EU, Global Capitalism, and Hardcore Theory" with a focus on sexuality, gender, resistance, and self-empowerment, led by Marina Grzinic and Elisa R. Linn.

From 1992 to 1994, Names Project Vienna grew to become the largest in Europe. Family members, friends, partners, and others grieving the loss of loved ones gathered in fabric workshops to sew memorial patches (90x180 cm) for each deceased person. These patches were then combined to form larger quilts (360x360 cm). Through these memorial patches, participants expressed their condolences and memories with creativity, and in the communal setting of making them together, mourners could share stories and support one another in their grief. To date, over 96 quilts with 360 names have been created.

Today, these quilts are displayed on memorial days and at traditional commemorative events. The first of these was held on December 1, 1992, World AIDS Day, when the quilts were shown at UNO-City Vienna. They have since been exhibited globally, including in Moscow, at Vienna’s Stephansdom, and at the opening of the Life Ball 2012 at the Rathausplatz in Vienna. In addition, Brigitte visits schools and other institutions across Austria, educating about the HIV/AIDS crisis and working to dismantle the stigma surrounding the infection and its victims.

LECTURE: Lamia Joreige (Lebanon, Beirut)

IN Collaboration with the research project PEEK CONVIVIALITY AS POTENTIALITY.

Lamia Joreige will present her project Uncertain Times, which involves the research, writing and production of a body of works covering the period between the end of the Ottoman Empire and the beginning of the French and British mandates in Lebanon, Syria and Palestine (1913-1920).

The artist invites us to reflect on historical processes and the use of documents at the center of her artistic practice.

Lamia Joreige is a visual artist and film-maker who lives and works in Beirut. She earned her BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design, where she studied painting and film-making. She uses archival documents and elements of fiction to reflect on history and its possible narration, and on the relationship between individual stories and collective memory.

Her practice, rooted in her country’s experience, explores the possibilities of representing the Lebanese wars and their aftermath, particularly in Beirut, a city at the center of her imagery.

Her work is essentially on time, the recordings of its trace, and its effects on us.

Joreige’s artworks, which include drawings, paintings, sculptures and large-scale multimedia installations, were presented at various international exhibitions and venues, including: Centre Pompidou, le 104, and Musée Nicéphore Niépce (France); Liverpool Biennial, Tate Modern, Serpentine Gallery and Cardiff National Museum (U.K.); MAXXI, Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Venice Bienniale (Italy); Harvard University’s Radcliffe Institute and Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, the International Center of Photography, the New Museum, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and Taymour Grahne Gallery (USA); Istanbul Biennial, and Arter (Turkey); Sharjah Biennial (UAE), Mathaf (Qatar) and Marfa gallery (Lebanon).

She has written, directed and produced various short essay films and one feature narrative, which were presented in festivals and venues among which: Medfilm Festival, Rome (Awarded Best film); FID Marseille; Les Rencontres Internationales Paris/Berlin; Paris Cinema; The Mediterranean Festival of Cinema, Montpellier; Home Works I, IV & VII (Ashkal Alwan), The Festival du Film Libanais and Beirut Cinema Days (Ayam Beirut Al Cinema'iya) are two prominent film festivals held in Beirut, each celebrating Lebanese and Arab cinema, showcasing a mix of features, shorts, documentaries, and experimental films by both emerging and established filmmakers.

Her first monograph, Lamia Joreige: Works 1994-2017, was published by Kaph Books in 2018. ‘Records for Uncertain Times’ was published by Taymour Grahne Gallery in 2015. She is the author of ‘Under-Writing Beirut —Mathaf (Sharjah Art Foundation, 2013) ; ‘Time and the Other’ (Alarm Editions, 2004) and ‘Ici et peut-être ailleurs’ (Haus Der Kulturen der Welt, 2003).

She has contributed writings and visual essays to various art periodicals such as TDR (MIT press Journal), Kamel Lazaar Foundation Projects, Apexart, Afterall online magazine, Sarai Reader 7, Art Journal, Art Forum, and Camera Austria.

Lamia Joreige was a fellow at the Institute for Ideas and Imagination in Paris (Columbia University) in 2021, and a fellow at The Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study (Harvard University) in 2016–2017. She is a co-founder and board member of Beirut Art Center, which she co-directed from 2009 to 2014.

Filmscreening: do not miss The AIDS Trilogy: Positive – The Response of Gay Men in New York to AIDS.

Directed by Rosa von Praunheim. Germany, 1990. Documentary, LGBTQ+ (83 minutes).

This is a screening inside the seminar (4th meeting) on AIDS, East Germany, EU, global capitalism, and hardcore theory on the topic of sexuality, gender, resistance, and self-empowerment.

A 1990 documentary by Rosa von Praunheim, who directed, wrote, and produced the film. Positiv serves as the second instalment of von Praunheim and Phil Zwickler’s AIDS activism trilogy, following Silence = Death. The film delves into the response of New York's gay community to the AIDS crisis, portraying the resilience and solidarity that emerged amid the epidemic.

Von Praunheim was born in 1942 as Holger Radtke during the German occupation in the central prison in Riga. His biological mother, Edith Charlotte Radtke, died of starvation in 1946 in a psychiatric clinic in Berlin’s Wittenau Hospital.

After his birth, Radtke was put up for adoption. His adoptive mother, Gertrud Mischwitzky († 2003), only informed him of his adoption in 2000 when she was 94 years old. He learned about his biological mother’s death after extensive research in 2006.

Von Praunheim documented his search in the film My Mothers – Searching in Riga (2007), which was shown at the 2008 Göteborg International Film Festival and nominated for the Jury Award at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City that same year.

In 2010, the film was nominated for the Grimme Award and was included in the film collection of Israel's Yad Vashem memorial in Jerusalem in 2023.

Holger Mischwitzky grew up in Teltow-Seehof in Brandenburg. In 1953, his family fled East Germany, initially to Wesel and later to Frankfurt am Main. There, he attended the Wöhlerschule but left before completing his secondary education.

WORKSHOP/collaboration with CONVIVIALITY AS POTENTIALITY and its newly joined member magistra and raper Esra Özmen.

TITLE WORKSHOP: RAP MUSIC /HIP HOP VISIONS, resistance, working class, empowerment

With us will be Esra Özmen, known as EsRap, that is a hip-hop duo from Austria, consisting of siblings Esra Özmen and Enes Özmen.

Esra Özmen is a magister of art and researcher inside the peek research project Peek with the title CONVIVIALITY AS POTENTIALITY. Esra Özmen got a diploma in Conceptual art Post-conceptual Art Practices at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna.

EsRap comes from a Turkish guest worker family and grew up in Ottakring, Vienna's 16th district.

In their songs, Esra Özmen and Enes Özment, address political themes such as identity and alienation, racism, the lives of migrants in the diaspora, homeland, their district, and the city of Vienna.

They were part of the opening of the Vienna Festival in both 2018 and 2019. Some songs and videos were published online. In June 2019, their debut album, Tschuschistan, blending hip-hop with Turkish-oriental arabesque sounds, was released by the Berlin label Springstoff.

When former Irie Révoltés frontman Mal Élevé released a remix of his anti-fascist piece No Pasaran on the anniversary of Kristallnacht in 2020, EsRap contributed, adding a laid-back rap style that complemented the track’s diversity. The title refers to the Spanish Civil War slogan ¡No pasarán!, a rallying cry for republican forces defending Madrid against Franco’s troops.

EsRap performed at the first Muslim Contemporary Art Festival* in November 2021, curated by photographer and conceptual artist Asma Aiad.

Their second album was released in summer 2022, and in October, they performed a “Walking Concert” at Vienna's Brunnenmarkt as part of the second Muslim Contemporary*, supported by the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna.

Their third album, titled ...weil sie Wien nicht kennen (…because they don’t know Vienna), was released in 2023 in collaboration with the Vienna-based Balkan-polka-rock band Gasmac Gilmore.

This album combines Enes’s arabesque melodies, Esra’s lyrics, and Gasmac Gilmore's distinctive guitar sound.

Their collaboration with Gasmac Gilmore began in 2019 with an EP, but was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

From November 2020 to November 2021, journalist and filmmaker Philipp Jedicke filmed Vienna Calling, a 90-minute documentary on Vienna's music and cultural scene featuring EsRap alongside Voodoo Jürgens, Stefanie Sargnagel, Lydia Haider, and Nino aus Wien.

EsRap uses rap as a political and emancipatory form of expression to challenge outdated discourses that marginalize people with migrant backgrounds. They advocate for viewing migrants as an everyday, normal part of society.

In contrast to the male-dominated hip-hop genre, Esra often performs harder, faster verses, while Enes takes on more melodic vocal parts.

WHAT'S THE TEA? #2 with iki yos piña narváez funes

"What's the Tea?" is an event designed by and for trans* and queer individuals to share their personal stories, inspirations, aspirations, and creative work. Centered around the concept of storytelling, the event draws on the slang term "tea" - meaning to share truth or gossip - to create a space where participants spill their own experiences and insights.

Themes of transitoriness and transformation are woven through the narratives, highlighting moments that shape identity, creativity, and community. With a focus on "trans*stories" and "transitorities," the event invites participants to engage in the transient nature of inspiration and self-expression from the guests.

"What's the Tea?" is conceived by Faris Cucchi, Mzamo Nondlwana and Pêdra Costa and organized by VBKÖ.

iki yos piña narváez funes. Afro-descendant, non-human, and cimarrónicx-flesh. Trans-non binary. Performer, writer and drawer.
