Frauen, Technologie und Netzwerke in Osteuropa
Women, Technology and Networks in Eastern Europe
Exhibition, performances, meetings
10 May - 22 June 2008
Kunstraum Kreuzberg / Bethanien Berlin, Germany
Opening: 9 May, from 19.00
A project of Tatiana Bazzichelli and Gaia Novati
sponsored by
Hauptstadtkulturfonds and with the support of
Institutes für
Auslandsbeziehungen.
The exhibition project HACK.Fem.EAST seeks to present
experimental and
artistic practices of artists and activists working in
digital networks
in Eastern Europe. Main topics are media, art and
hacking. Main
protagonists are women or projects in which women play
an important
role.
Aim of the project is to provide and to develop a
network platform.
This
is achieved through five elements: the exhibition, the
opening event,
two days of conferences, a publication in newspaper
format and a
website.
Central idea is to involve women artists to develop
independetely their
concept in each of the 14 rooms of the Kunstraum
Kreuzberg / Bethanien
and be part of the network formed by the all groups
and
arstists/activists participating. Existing networks
from 11 Eastern
countries are at the heart of the project and form the
basis of the
exhibition. A total of 11 networks are invited to the
various rooms of
the Kunstraum Kreuzberg /Bethanien to introduce their
work, their
strategies and their aims in the form of video and
computer
installations, documentations and presentations.
The result is a "network of networks".
A two day long conference on 10 and 11 May held at the
outset of the
project intends to bring the lines and networks
together and discuss on
women perspective in the Eastern cultural scenario.
Its aim is to
provide a forum for a form of politics based on
radical invention -
media and Internet art projects, performances, network
platforms,
software development, artistic coding, organisation of
media festivals,
etc.
More information on the exhibition are published on
the NGO-supplement
of taz, the Berlin daily newspaper, in an edition of
30.000 copies to
coincide with the exhibition opening (9 May 2008).
Another integral
component of the project is the website
http://www.hackfemeast.org,
with
an up-to-date and open presentation of the project's
processes and
developments, summarizing them and putting them up for
discussion.
