Pandora’s Box<\/strong><\/strong> befindet sich in einem Container mit Videoinstallationen und ist gleichzeitig ein immersiver Treffpunkt mit Ideen und Geschichten. Jedes Jahr erschafft Pandoras Box eine neue Konstellation aus Film- und Videoarbeiten. Sie erm\u00f6glicht eine Pause auf einem Festival voller Transformation, Bilder und Kraft. Du kannst dich einen Moment lang in einer anderen Welt verlieren, wenn du mit Kopfh\u00f6rern in den Kissen der Box ausruhst und dir die warmen Geschichten von \u00fcberall auf der Welt anh\u00f6rst \u2013 und danach aufgeladen zum Festival zur\u00fcckkehren. Pandoras Box ist absichtlich ein kleiner Raum, in dem die Arbeiten miteinander und mit den Besucher*innen in Austausch treten. Mit dem Wachsen von Pandoras Box im Laufe der Jahre erweiterte sich auch die Bandbreite k\u00fcnstlerischer Ausdrucksformen von Film und Video zu Mixed Media und einem Hauch von Theater und Tanz. Wir laden K\u00fcnstler*innen dazu ein, an unserem kollektiven Prozess innerhalb der Community teilzunehmen und ihre Arbeiten und Perspektiven in einem K\u00fcnstler*innengespr\u00e4ch zu teilen.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Die Galerie<\/strong><\/strong> beteiligt sich in diesem Jahr an einer Reflexion \u00fcber feministische Demokratie. Sie ist ein politischer Rahmen, der demokratische Systeme neu bewertet und umgestaltet, um Geschlechterhierarchien und strukturelle Ungleichheiten abzubauen. Die feministische Demokratie geht \u00fcber das grundlegende gesetzlich festgeschriebene Wahlrecht hinaus, um substanzielle Gleichstellung zu gew\u00e4hrleisten, und bezieht dabei die Ethik der F\u00fcrsorge, intersektionale Repr\u00e4sentation sowie die Umverteilung von Macht im \u00f6ffentlichen und privaten Leben mit ein. Der feministischen Theorie wird oft vorgeworfen, zu theoretisch und politisch zu weit entfernt von der Basis zu sein. Deshalb m\u00f6chten wir dazu beitragen, Vorurteile und Sichtweisen abzubauen, indem wir eine vielf\u00e4ltige Gruppe von K\u00fcnstler*innen und Performer*innen zusammenbringen und einen offenen und konstruktiven Austausch \u00fcber Praxis, Wissen und gegenseitige Unterst\u00fctzung f\u00f6rdern.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Pandora\u2019s Box<\/strong><\/strong>\u2014a shipping container housing video installations that also serves as an immersive gathering place for ideas and stories. Each year, Pandora\u2019s Box creates a new constellation of film and video works. It offers a moment of respite amidst a festival charged with transformation, imagery, and energy. You can lose yourself in another world for a while\u2014resting on the cushions inside the box with headphones on, listening to heartwarming stories from around the globe\u2014before returning to the festival feeling recharged. Pandora\u2019s Box is intentionally designed as an intimate space where the artworks engage with one another and with the visitors. As Pandora\u2019s Box has evolved over the years, the range of artistic expressions has expanded from film and video to include mixed media and elements of theater and dance. We invite artists to join our collective community process and share their work and perspectives during artist talks.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This year, the gallery<\/strong><\/strong> is taking part in a reflection on feminist democracy. It is a political framework that reassesses and reshapes democratic systems in order to dismantle gender hierarchies and structural inequalities. Feminist democracy goes beyond the fundamental right to vote guaranteed by law to ensure substantive equality, incorporating the ethics of care, intersectional representation and the redistribution of power in public and private life. Feminist theory is often criticized for being too theoretical and politically detached from the grassroots. We therefore aim to contribute to breaking down prejudices and preconceptions by bringing together a diverse group of artists and performers and fostering an open and constructive exchange of practice, knowledge and mutual support.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
