Guilty Guilty Guilty


The group exhibition Guilty, Guilty, Guilty! Towards a Feminist Criminology undertakes a feminist assessment of jurisdictional power. The focus is on “women on trial”—female artists, “bad mothers,” women defendants and women plaintiffs on a rather lost cause. In this context, the courtroom does not only appear as a site of legal assessment, but primarily as a space in which a political or ideological image of women is always implicitly negotiated and constructed. What else, beyond the juridical paragraphs, is debated here? And how can we render this hidden discourse visible?

"Naming Touch"

June 28-29
~Link in Bio~

We would like to warmly invite you to the talk of Bara Kolenc "The Omnipotence of Words: From Protection to Provocation" during the symposium "Naming Touch" on June 28 & 29 at ICI Berlin.

The symposium explores the relationship between naming and touching and how words and their enunciation influence our haptic experience of those words and effects/affects, their meanings and the relationships between those who speak and those who are spoken about. And can that naming touch be translated?

For more info on the program and the different amazing speakers, see our link in Bio!

Symposium organized by Iracema Dulley and Rachel Aumiller

THE RIVER (PART I)
by Public in Private in cooperation with Sophiensaele

🌊

Throughout the summer, the team around Aimé C. Songe alias Clément Layes invites you to a personal encounter on a rowing boat just in time for sunset. Together with different artists, participants embark on a dream-like journey to question the concept of an active and productive life and take time to decelerate.

Aimé C. Songe is an artistic persona of Clément Layes who takes the time to grieve and find new ways to come together with the audience and the world outdoors and in nature.

Accessibility information

The performance lasts about one hour and is happening at sunset time on a rowing boat on the water. The boat is 5 meter by 1m40. It is a classic rowing boat. A performer will welcome you and be your host. The performance is scripted and you will receive a listening device to follow the performance while your host navigates the boat. It is a quiet and relaxed performance. There is only for you to look and listen. During the performance you will be invited to sit or lay down in the boat, sometimes with closed eyes. It is up to you.
