Art, Diaspora and Protest Praxis

In the organizer's words:

As part of the National Action Plan against Racism as a contribution to the International Weeks against Racism

Participation offer: 12-15 h
Registration until March 28, 2025 (see price details below)

What happens when a mop suddenly calls social conditions into question? How does art change our understanding of belonging and exclusion? These questions are the focus of the guided tours through the exhibition Just as we are, which are taking place as part of the International Weeks against Racism. Together with cultural psychologist Dewi Stümer, works by Anna Ehrenstein, Nil Yalter, Kasia Fudakowski and Zoe Leonard, among others, will be examined. Their works deal with topics such as belonging, marginalization and racist exclusion and show how art can question social norms and open up new perspectives.

Parallel to the guided tours, there will be a hands-on activity for visitors of all ages from 12:00 to 15:00. Under the guidance of artist Sirma Kekeç, visitors can try out printing techniques and work with collage and plasticine at stations to creatively explore the themes of the exhibition.

This project is supported by the Senator for Labor, Social Affairs, Youth and Integration with funds from the state and the European Social Fund Plus.
