Walking as Alibi: The Dreams of Cynthia | Virtual Performance hosted by Colomboscope | PREMIERING NOW | LIVE ON YOUTUBE 💫
This performance by Pallavi Paul revisits her 2017 film 'The Dreams of Cynthia / Cynthia ke Sapne'. It opens up the filmic as a porous field of actions, pulling in the artist's own voice and presence. How may a protagonist morph into beyond human forms through poethical interpretation and political turmoil? Paul plants a surplus imaginary, such that despite spatial ruin and necropolitics, rebellious practices of life-making continue to sprout. Mounted as an online experience, it punctuates the enduring grammar of 'screening', 'exhibition', and reading with a renewed address to the present while being contemporary to various orders of cinematic, geological, and industrial time.
Supported by the DAAD Artists-in-Berlin Program with funds from the Federal Foreign Office in the framework of the International Relief Fund for Organizations in Culture and Education

AUSTRALIAN STORY: My father was a veteran of the second world war. He fought in the battle for Berlin and survived the terror of the Halbe Pocket. Taken prisoner by the Russians, tortured, starved and released, he escaped the iron curtain and made his way to Australia with an assumed name and under contract as a Displaced Person. The 'war' that he endured was an eternal search for a belonging, for an identity, for a soul, for those were the things that he had lost, and those were the things that he WOULD fight for. In founding a new family, the death of my mother dealt a grave blow. Burdened with a newborn, a one and two year old, he was resolute in reclaiming his existence as a person of worth on this earth. He died in January 2017, a tortured soul, a forgotten soldier. In life he had been displaced but found a new life, a new identity, and a new home in Australia. In death his soul remains displaced, for no government will afford him his redemption through a recognition of his right to legitimacy. Ransomed into service for the Waffen SS, a N**i, he forfeited his soul in exchange for the lives of his Volksdeutsch family. My father was born in Poland, fought for Germany and belongs in Australia. He will forever remain in my heart, a champion of sacrifice, a testament to the fabric of the human spirit, and yet an enigma to those who are unable to understand.

Im Rahmen von #30JahreHausfuerPoesie veröffentlichen wir nach und nach alle Produktionen des diesjährigen 22. poesiefestival berlin "Da liegt Europa". Jetzt neu:
QUEER-BODIED VOICES
Reading and statements in German and in English, Catalan, Polish and Swedish with German subtitles.
Gegenwärtig haben in Europa Toleranz ebenso wie Intoleranz gegenüber nicht-heteronormativen Sexualitäten und Identitäten zugenommen. Während die Gleichstellung der Ehe mittlerweile in zahlreichen Ländern erkämpft werden konnte, werden beispielsweise in Polen die Menschenrechte von LGBT verletzt, und ihre Freiheit zunehmend eingeschränkt.
Lesung mit den Dichter*innen Jay Bernard (GBR) | Jacek Dehnel (POL) | Eduard Escoffet (ESP) | Anna Hetzer (DEU) | Judith Kiros (SWE) | Moderation: Ricardo Domeneck, Dichter (BRA)
Wie reagieren queere Dichter*innen poetisch und politisch auf die aktuelle Situation in Europa? Bringt die Erfahrung eines queeren Körpers notwendigerweise eine deutlich andere, vielleicht auch politischere Poetik hervor? Welche Rolle spielen poetische Traditionen? Welche anderen Konzepte und Aspekte von Identität beeinflussen das eigene Schreiben?
Queere Dichter*innen aus fünf europäischen Ländern befassen sich im Film mit diesen Fragen. Jay Bernard, Eduard Escoffet, Judith Kiros, Jacek Dehnel und Anna Hetzer lesen und performen eigene Texte und sprechen über Körper, Poesie und Identität.
Kuratierung: Ricardo Domeneck
Projektleitung: Jutta Büchter
Lesung und Statements auf Englisch, Katalanisch, Polnisch, Schwedisch mit deutschen Untertiteln sowie auf Deutsch.
Queer-Bodied Voices wird freundlich unterstützt durch den Swedish Arts Council, das Berliner Künstlerprogramm des DAAD und die Schwedische Botschaft. Präsentiert von der Siegessäule.
What does it mean to re-imagine the club through memory? In this episode of Art Between IRL & URL we catch up with artists Stine Janvin and Ula Sickle, who explore this question through their new work 'Echoic Choir'. The collective ritual piece consists of dancers immersing the audience of Berlin's CTM Festival in ‘Fake Synthetic Music’ using their voices and bodies as sound systems.
Watch now as the artists dig deep into their inspirations, and how it feels to open a club-inspired performance piece at the onset of Berlin's club culture restart.

Open call for Applications for Filmmakers, WRITERS and Composers/Sound Artists!
This is an invitation to participate in the Berliner Künstlerprogramm des DAAD, one of the most sought-after fellowships in the world. Every year since 1963, around twenty internationally recognized cultural producers of all ages who have developed a distinctive creative practice and have already produced a substantial body of work in the field of visual arts, film, literature, or music have been invited to spend twelve months living and working in Berlin. Invitations to filmmakers are issued for six months.🪐🌪📖📚
The call for applications for 2023 fellowships is running from September 27, 2021 until December 1, 2021.
At the start of the year, I had no idea what was going to happen. I was stuck in Cape Town without a studio and unable to attend my residencies in Europe due to travel restrictions. It was not the plan. Then thanks to David Krut's wonderful idea, I collaborated with THEFOURTH, made a new body of work for my first solo at David Krut Project’s in Johannesburg, and I finally arrived in France. I fell in love with both the place and a person 🥰
I feel so lucky to have so much support from the people closest to me and the organisations that have helped make this possible - David Krut Projects, the Institut Français, Bag Factory, SCAC and DAAD.
My first residency exhibition will take place on the 9th of October at SCAC Marestaing, in the South of France.
If you would like to receive the catalogue of my exhibitions both in Johannesburg and Marestaing, please send me a message.
Berlin, I’ll see you soon!
