Calladita nunca. Conversar fuera de tono | Sala de Arte Público Siqueiros | miércoles, 24. enero 2018

Conversaremos sobre letras, música y videos que utilizan la parodia para romper la automatización de la percepción. Escucharemos voces feministas, cuir, fuera de ritmo, chirriantes, géneros bastardos e irreverentes, y letras aún no cantadas pero ya conectadas en futuros alternativos.
La charla tiene como objetivo intercambiar estrategias y desafíos sobre formas de componer canciones de manera individual o colectiva, así como dialogar sobre la experiencia colaborativa en la creación musical.

Taller/Conferencia: Cherríe Moraga y Celia Herrera


Presentación: La lucha libre femenil como una herramienta contra la pedagogía de la crueldad


Exhibición y simposio: FACES: gender, art, technology. 20 years of interactions, connections and collaborations

Entrevista (inglés): Hauntings in the Archive, Frieze

Hauntings in the Archive

Nina Höchtl and Julia Wieger discuss researching the Austrian Association of Women Artists and their efforts to disrupt unreliable histories

An understanding of history as unreliable – a subjective, edited text, fallible to human error or deliberate bias – has been much explored in recent politics and art practice. The archive has become both a physical and rhetorical space in which to challenge omissions, gaps and absences and ask questions about hierarchies of power. Who, and how, do we remember, and why? The intricate relationship between feminism and the archive – the notion of activating and preserving marginalized history as a form of collective resistance – has been addressed by academics such as Kate Eichhorn, a lecturer in writing and cultural theory at The New School in New York, who perceive an engagement with the past as a means to stage radical, progressive interventions in the present. Akin to other energized forms of political intervention, the archive is there to be reclaimed.

Spuken im Archiv! (Hauntings in the Archive!)

Trailer HAUNTINGS IN THE ARCHIVE! from SKGAL on Vimeo.

Hauntings in the Archive! reflects on and exposes the his/herstory/ies of the Austrian Association of Women Artists (VBKÖ) through its century-old archive of letters, photos, catalogues and thousands of other documents. The Secretariat for Ghosts, Archive Politics and Gaps curates the material to conjure up the spectres of the multiple lives of the VBKÖ that meet and share the scene in the film: ghosts of national socialism encounter colonial fantasies and old and new feminist agencies.

Trailer ¡HECHIZOS EN EL ARCHIVO! from SKGAL on Vimeo.

¡HECHIZOS EN EL ARCHIVO! hace un corte largo y fragmentario a través de la/s historia/s de la Asociación Austriaca de Mujeres Artistas (VBKÖ). Fundada en 1910, la VBKÖ fue una de las primeras organizaciones europeas en velar por los intereses artísticos y económicos de las mujeres artistas. En 2017 sigue activa y se enfrenta a los fantasmas de la ideología nacional-socialista y de fantasías coloniales así como a los espectros de viejas y nuevas agencias feministas.
