19.05.2022 // OPENHAUS MAY 2022 // LUVUYO EQUIANO NYAWOSE
During his time at ZK/U, Nyawose has been researching the aural registers of multi generational experiences of Black Berliners in public pools. Working with recorded reflections, Nyawose uses Carlos Amorales’ ‘liquid archives’, as a research framework that “transgresses rigid and fixed frameworks of archives as systems of collecting and cataloging historical records – offering fluidity, resulting in “malleable entities that create meaning in myriad and unforeseen ways” (Platow, 2014: 52). The unfolding residency research is rooted in expressions of Black social life. Swimming in collective Black (H)histories of public gathering, it acknowledges the slippery tensions and myriad of complex violence which linger in the contentious present: the pervasive white gaze, the voyerised black joy and unsafeness of public spaces. Yet it centers intimacy, tenderness - by the pool, in the pool, besides the pool. It ebbs and flows, through porous locales of Black gathering - which invite rest and embrace.
Luvuyo Equiano Nyawose is a participant of the TURN2 Residencies’ programme. Funded by the TURN2 programme of the Kulturstiftung des Bundes (German Federal Cultural Foundation). Funded by the Beauftragte der Bundesregierung für Kultur und Medien (Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media).

19.05.2022 // OPENHAUS MAY 2022 // CARMEL KEREN
GUrL (Gendered Urban Landscapes) //
GUrL looks to address the inequity in urban public spaces by empowering young women as collaborators to explore, through spatial design and performance, how they can confidently occupy public urban spaces.
This OPENHAUS provides a peek into the early stages of this work, focusing on observations around Alexanderplatz, as Carmel's connects herself to the city where her grandparents fled from.

19.05.2022 // OPENHAUS MAY 2022 // RE DIAZ SALGADO
Evicitons //
Multi-media documentation of a housing eviction process, part of a larger intention to recognize, recall, archive and translate displacement and eviction processes beyond the self referential.
Working within these moments seeks to intuitively question what happens between trauma and memory making. How are memories a strategy to heal? Is there an in between? Can we assume a shattered form?

19.05.2022 // OPENHAUS MAY 2022 // LUUK SMITS
Assembly //
Luuk Smits is presenting two new works that respond to the site of ZK/U in its current state of transformation. Over the past three months, he explored the (de)construction of the building, looking to trace the journeys of the materials used. During this time, Luuk became more interested in the act of investigation itself, dealing with questions that remain unanswered. On view are two new works developed in parallel to this research. Both are created through my approach to artmaking as a thinking space, to explore, test, create, question, and play with materials and the information they introduce. Including a totem-like sculpture on the fassade, and a video installation on the construction site, together they show the global-ness of the local, with the materials used at ZK/U originating from fabrication sites, construction processes, and labour forces across the world.
This project is generously supported by the Mondriaan Fonds, the Netherlands @mondriaanfonds

Reflecting on participation, co-authorship and social engagement, this OPENHAUS is all over places.
A multitude of spaces turned into places by its people - through actions, encounters and memories. A place of negotiations and in-betweens: From city spaces and public places, over playgrounds and construction sites, to neighborhoods and apartment blocks. Shaped by the diverse interests of the residents who will be presenting their work-in-progress, the practices vary from performance, intervention, sound installation to multimedia.
ZK/U Berlin is also looking forward to the re- opening of Bauschilderung _ Urbane Bühne, welcoming Threads Radio / Sisu & Field Conspiracy for a participatory music format starting 4 p.m.

Instagram Takeover by Australian artist/writer Josephine Mead @josephinemead : "Depending on the vicissitudes of such a listening, the ear is disquieted, is reassured, weaves intimate relations with the unknown, or forges knowledge through language. The ear is a delicate thing. It is under the influence. " - François J. Bonnet. Go to zku's instagram stories to answer questions posed by Josephine relating to acts of deep listening. Responses will inspire the creation of new works that will be shortly posted online, as part of Josephine's new research project, 'An Act of Deep Listening.' Work pictured: 'Keep an ear to the ground.' 2020, Josephine Mead, video, work courtesy of the artist. #josephinemead #anactofdeeplistening #deeplistening #zku #zkuberlin #zentrumfurkunstundurbanistik #openhaus #bonnet

07.05.-19.05.2020 // DIGITAL OPENHAUS // Anabelle Lacroix (3/3) //////// (Non)Sleep as Social Practice, 2020 //////// How can I sleep less and be more efficient? Or, how can I defy this cognitive-capital logic? The very tensions and contradictions between sleep and unsleep, and labour and resistance, are at the centre of this research. After a workshop with ZK/U residents in collaboration with @byungseo_yoo and @gustavosanromanvazquez (IAUZK/U), I developed (Non)Sleep as Social Practice, an all-night program of sound, music and interviews that was broadcasted and produced during confinement by Threads*sub_ʇxǝʇ radio.

07.05.-19.05.2020 // DIGITAL OPENHAUS // Anabelle Lacroix (2/3) ////////// (Non)Sleep as Social Practice, 2020 ////////// There are drugs that excite, and others that numb. Sleep has always been very seductive, we all want it, we long for abandoning ourselves to it, for being paralysed by it. Why persist at falling asleep if you can’t? What is your body whispering? What if we stopped sleeping? Would we be more politically awake? Would we be more, or less, human? There is a great deal of sleep pressure. Guilt. Culpability. Time poverty. Our bodies have been colonised by a western, capital-driven and patriarchal conception of time and by the medicalisation of sleep. Sleeping pills are a diffuse and perverse form of control, for self-regulation and self-silencing. Anxieties are to be supressed in a feel-good economy. However, they are the perfect alarm bell, urging us to take action and trust our resonating body as a sounding instrument for society. What if we practiced engaged listening, to yourself and to others? Recommended reading: Gloria E. Anzaldúa, Charlie Kurth, Pauline Oliveros, Anna Della Subin.
