“Throughout history and noticeably during the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us in the Asian diaspora have become targets of violence in public spaces.

Matthias Wermke is teaching a seminar (Zweckfreie Räume - Intervention und Performance) with four students at ETH Zurich (Department of Architecture and Art, Prof. Karin Sander) on the topic of "appropriation and theft in art".

To Perform a Ferry is a book that holds eight performance scripts and other material to be spoken. Inspired by the figure of the renegade who leaves land behind and crosses the sea or leaves civilization to take refuge in the vast desert, the eight scripts embody the state of migrating, through space but also through languages, bodies, and writing genres. Written in English by Mohamed Abdelkarim.

From one of the most lauded artists of his generation comes a purging soliloquy: a profound nowt delivered in some spent afterwards. Scorched by senility and nostalgia, and wracked by all kinds of hunger, Ed Atkins’ Old Food lurches from allegory to listicle, from lyric to menu, fetching up a plummeting, idiomatic and crabbed tableau from the cannibalised remains of each form in turn. Written in conjunction with Atkins’ exhibition of the same name, Old Food is a hard Brexit, wadded with historicity, melancholy and a bravura kind of stupidity. Ed Atkins is an artist who makes all kinds of convolutions of self-portraiture. He writes uncomfortably intimate, debunked prophesies; paints travesties; and makes realistic computer generated videos that often feature figures that resemble the artist in the throes of unaccountable psychical crises. Atkins’ artificial realism, whether written or animated, pastiches romanticism to get rendered down to a sentimental blubber – all the better to model those bleak feelings often so inexpressible in real life.

Die Wiener Gruppe – Friedrich Achleitner, H. C. Artmann, Konrad Bayer, Gerhard Rühm, Oswald Wiener – entstand zwischen 1952 und 1955 aus einem Kreis avantgardistischer Künstler, die dem Wiener „Art-Club“ verbunden waren. Bei aller Verschiedenartigkeit

Ulrike Rosenbach war eine der ersten in Europa, die in den 1970er-Jahren mit Performance und Video zur arbeiten begann. Ein innovativer und experimenteller Gebrauch der Medien zeichnet sowohl ihre frühen Video-Live-Aktionen aus, wie auch ihre aktuellen Videoskulpturen und Medieninstallationen.

“Resonant Bodies, Voices, Memories” evolves around memory, voice and the body – more specifically around instances where our habitual abilities to sense, remember, and speak are somehow disrupted or suspended. Such shifts and ruptures may occur through experiences such as living under an oppressive regime, migration, trying to make oneself understood in a foreign language, or through physical inhibitions like aphasia or stuttering.

His immediate response to the city was to imagine an outdoor performance of Samuel Beckett's legendary play, Waiting for Godot – the 20th century's most emblamatic story of waiting.

Joris Van de Moortel had the idea of working with the structure of a comic book a long time ago; he experimented with a few things but nothing worked so far

Comics were Van de Moortel’s first love: his first drawings, his first stories; a dwelling of fantasies and a lack of reality: he devored them as a child.
