concept and composition: Betül Merve Tekoğlu sound: Baptiste Moulin

The 4-channel sound installation Sirens by artist Betül Merve Tekoğlu deals with acoustic strategies of care, solidarity and resistance in hostile environments. The composition draws its tension from a contradiction: It consists of sound frequencies that can be used as weapons or deterrents, but here are turned into their opposite, having a calming and relaxing effect.
Sirens can be experienced during the exhibition’s opening hours and invites visitors to stop, rest and listen.

13.05.2023 // 15:00 Nicht eine* weniger Intergenerational Roundtable on Autonomous Feminist Organizing
with Annalisa Cananzi (E.A.S.T. – Essential Autonomous Struggles Transnational), Cora Mohr (FrauenLesbenGruppe Frankfurt a.M.), Lee Stevens (collective member of Raumerweiterungshalle, artist and care worker, Berlin) and Suna Qu (political education, Berlin), moderated by Amina Été and Cornelia Herfurtner.
What forms does emancipatory politics take today? In this event, participants will report from their political work. How are they organized? How do they shape their practices? What are the ideas and needs behind autonomous feminist organizing? How does the emancipation of women and inter*, trans*, non-binary and agender people currently look, and express itself? What has changed within emancipatory politics and practices over the past 35 years?

This event is open to women, inter*, non-binary, trans*, and agender people interested in autonomous feminist organizing. We will share our different experiences. After the joint discussion, there will be drinks and snacks and the possibility to exchange ideas.
