Djamila Grandits, Selina Shirin Stritzel & Thomas Trabitsch: Imaginations of social potentialities (in the curatorial)

Round Table/Workshop: Imaginations of social potentialities (in the curatorial)

Sat 01.03., 13h, with Djamila Grandits, Selina Shirin Stritzel & Thomas Trabitsch, in English or German (depending on the preferences of the participants)

Queer-feminist organising and artistic-activist strategies in visual arts, theatre, film and on the street: it’s all about forming alliances beyond one’s own fields of work, personal concerns and class affiliations. Marginalised groups and communities suffer the consequences of right-wing politics first, but in time, everyone else does, too. So why do we still care about queering and decolonising museums while the majority of people are affected by completely different challenges? What relevance does the next art project bear in a society that is increasingly characterised by fascist tendencies? We will discuss concepts such as "Fake it till you make it" and concrete instructions for action, with a desire to imagine other worlds and open up spaces of possibility for social impact in the curatorial realm.
