Invitation "Zur Kenntnis genommen" / "Acknowledged"

 


“Zur Kenntnis genommen” (acknowledged), beginning on Wednesday September 22nd at the Pandion “The Grid Cabins” close to U-Moritzplatz in Berlin.

For our project "Zur Kenntnis genommen" (acknowledged) we started an Open Call via E-Mails and social networks, where we invited artists and project space operators worldwide to send us their most urgent concern in these pandemic times. We asked them to do it digitally in DIN A4 format.

We, St. & St., made a performative video in which we “acknowledged” the contributions.

At Pandion “The Grid Cabins” will be the premiere of the video alongside with an exhibition of the printed contributions as well as two room installations from us connected to the topic.

At the Opening we will also host a live-performance by Lan Hungh.

On Saturday, September 25th 2021, Monsieur Franz Ka – via Gedankenschmied-Projekt - will show a sound-performance titled “Wählen Sie zwischen 1 bis 6: #SSMIDD” (Choose between 1 and 6: #SSMIDD).

MummyCat is the physical extrapolation of an industrial skeleton by means of woods, glue and silk-like Papyus. MummyCat serves as a symbol for the active self-destruction of our western societies and the unpredictable goal, at witch this activity is leading to.

OPEN GATES short movies from syria on the 4th at 7 p.m. @ SCOTTY Berlin

This is going to be - most propably - an interesting screening at a producer gallery which I was once -under different psydonym- part of:


SCREENING: Open Gates

zwölf syrische Kurzfilme von 2014/2015

am 4.11. um 19 Uhr

Syrien – zwischen Arabischem Frühling und Bürgerkrieg




                            „Boy and a Ball“


(english version below)

Die Kurzfilme führen von der weiten Landschaft Amudas, in den nördlichen kurdischen Gebieten Syriens, über Aleppos bis nach Yarmouk, in das für seine kulturelle Vielfalt bekannte Palästinenserviertel in Damaskus. Einfühlsame Dokumentationen, moderner Tanz, sarkastische Animationen bis hin zu Stop-Motion-Film sind die Genres, mit denen sich die unabhängigen syrischen Filmemacherinnen und Filmemacher gefühlvoll ihrem, von Krieg und Zerstörung gezeichneten Land, nähern. Die Kurzfilme sind kleine Schätze, die uns einen tiefen Einblick in die Lebens- und Vorstellungswelten der Filmemacherinnen und Filmemacher erlauben.
Das Kurzfilmprogramm ist nach einem Open-Call von dem syrischen Kulturinstitut Ettijahat. Independent Culture und dem reisenden Kurzfilmfestival Moviemiento e.V. aus Berlin zusammengestellt worden.

„Open Gates“, twelve short films from Syria 2014/ 2015
 Syria between Arab spring and civil war

The short films lead through the wide landscape of Amudas, a place in the Kurdish part of north Syria, to Aleppo and further to Yarmouk, known as a muticultural Palestinian quarter in Damascus. The compilation includes a variation of different approaches of independent Syrian filmmakers depicting a country that faces war and destruction. Empathetic documentation, modern dance, sarcastic animation and stop motion movies are the genres of the movies. Following the short films we get an introduction to the everyday life and the imagination of the film makers.
The sellection of the short films based on an open call announced by Ettijahat. Independent Culture, a syrian NGO and Moviemiento e.V., a Berlin based moving short film festival.
