Networks of Solidarity: Body & Mind

Networks of Solidarity: Body & Mind

Location: Kunsthalle Wien

For a long time a range of initiatives in Vienna has been working on questions of living together in diverse contexts. On five Mondays, the Community College invites guests to present their engagement, to exchange strategies and to connect with each other and with the visitors.

On 11 September we'll meet with activists and initiatives that engage for body concepts that counter ableism and the ideal of functionality. Several projects and the artistic, cultural and political strategies following this goal will be presented and discussed.

Eva Egermann works as an artist and researcher based in Vienna. She is the editor of Crip Magazine and various other publications („Regime. Wie Dominanz organisiert und Ausdruck formalisiert wird“, “class works“). Her PhD project „Crip Modes of Artistic Research“ (Academy of Fine Arts Vienna) received multiple awards. She is currently lecturer at the Hochschule Luzern and fellow at the Künstlerhaus Büchsenhausen Innsbruck.
