<nettime-ann> HACK.Fem.EAST - Women, Technology and Networks in Eastern Europe


.
HACK.Fem.EAST
Frauen, Technologie und Netzwerke in Osteuropa
Women, Technology and Networks in Eastern Europe

Exhibition, performances, meetings
10 May - 22 June 2008
Kunstraum Kreuzberg / Bethanien Berlin, Germany
Opening: 9 May, from 19.00

A project of Tatiana Bazzichelli and Gaia Novati sponsored by 
Hauptstadtkulturfonds and with the support of Institutes für 
Auslandsbeziehungen.

The exhibition project HACK.Fem.EAST seeks to present experimental and 
artistic practices of artists and activists working in digital networks 
in Eastern Europe. Main topics are media, art and hacking. Main 
protagonists are women or projects in which women play an important role.
Aim of the project is to provide and to develop a network platform. This 
is achieved through five elements: the exhibition, the opening event, 
two days of conferences, a publication in newspaper format and a website.

Central idea is to involve women artists to develop independetely their 
concept in each of the 14 rooms of the Kunstraum Kreuzberg / Bethanien 
and be part of the network formed by the all groups and 
arstists/activists participating. Existing networks from 11 Eastern 
countries are at the heart of the project and form the basis of the 
exhibition. A total of 11 networks are invited to the various rooms of 
the Kunstraum Kreuzberg /Bethanien to introduce their work, their 
strategies and their aims in the form of video and computer 
installations, documentations and presentations.
The result is a "network of networks".

A two day long conference on 10 and 11 May held at the outset of the 
project intends to bring the lines and networks together and discuss on 
women perspective in the Eastern cultural scenario. Its aim is to 
provide a forum for a form of politics based on radical invention - 
media and Internet art projects, performances, network platforms, 
software development, artistic coding, organisation of media festivals, etc.

More information on the exhibition are published on the NGO-supplement 
of taz, the Berlin daily newspaper, in an edition of 30.000 copies to 
coincide with the exhibition opening (9 May 2008). Another integral 
component of the project is the website http://www.hackfemeast.org, with 
an up-to-date and open presentation of the project's processes and 
developments, summarizing them and putting them up for discussion.
