The afternoon begins with a talk with the artist Paola
Lesslhumer,
who is represented in the current exhibition with the work
"Butterfly Effect".
The multi-part photographic work
was created in Mexico in 2022.
It shows a group of young people coming together for a collective
action. Interesting in several respects is the reference to the butterfly
effect, a phenomenon of chaotic systems where even minimal
changes can lead to unpredictable states within the system. The
smallest flapping of the wings can produce something big.
The talk will be held in German language.

Afterwards there will be a dance workshop entitled "Dancing
to
transform the world / Protesting with music" by the artists Imayna Caceres and Susana Ojeda.
In this workshop, participants will
dance to popular songs, and also
lyrics are formulated, which reflect the desires for political
transformations and which will then be sung together. The workshop
is aimed at people who are looking for other forms of political and
community involvement. Would you like to protest by dancing to
your favourite music?
Previous experience is not necessary.
The workshop will be held in English and German language.
Registration is requested, but spontaneous participation is welcome!
