The exhibition Das Buch im Bild (The Book in the Picture) brings together works by 23 national and international artists. What they have in common is that they deal with the visually plain subject of the book in a surprising, intelligent and aesthetic way in order to place it in very different contexts, no matter how diverse the themes and approaches of the individual works are.

Artists: Tina Bara/Alba D’Urbano, Adam Bartos, Wiebke Elzel, Ingo Gerken, Reinier Gerritsen, Dagmar Gester, Eiko Grimberg, Samuel Henne, Oliver Kern, Wilhelm Klotzek, Claudia Larcher, Alexandra Leykauf, Wiebke Loeper, Philip Loersch, Robert Lyons, Arwed Messmer, Jana Müller, Olivia Noss, Ricarda Roggan, Adrian Sauer, Oskar Schmidt, Arne Schmitt, Luise Schröder

Curated by Tina Bara und Michael Schäfer

I created a collage for the new website of the Audio Podcast of La Parole Errante. La Parole Errante is a self-organized space for political, social and cultural experimentation, located in Montreuil, Seine-Saint-Denis, France. Broadcasts produced by the Parole Errante sound studio reflect on histories, archives, lectures from the Michèle Firk bookshop, radio documentaries and create soundtracks to resonate the multiple experiences that run through and take root in this place and are anchored there audible and tangible.

Strömungen in Bewegung – an artistic exploration of non-governmental women's and lesbian groups in the GDR

Sonntags-Club e.V.
Greifenhagener Straße 28, 10437 Berlin
Evening for queer women and non-binary lesbians
Entrance free of charge

Through her East German biography and at the invitation of the Berlinische Galerie, Luise Schröder explored the forgotten activities of non-governmental women's and lesbian groups in the GDR in the 1980s and 1990s. In collaboration with the Archive of the GDR Opposition and based on photographs by Kerstin Baarmann, Karin Dauenheimer, Bettina Dziggel, Christine Starke, Leo Tesch and Mechthild Ziegenhagen, STRÖMUNGEN IN BEWEGUNG was created. It reflects feminist and lesbian perspectives on GDR history and opens up spaces for reflection in the present.
Luise Schröder will present her work at the Sonntags-Club on March 22nd, 2024 as part of the L'OST event series. Afterwards there will be room for exchange: on the history of the women and lesbian movement in the GDR, on artistic realization, own experiences and for listening to witnesses.

This event is made possible by a cooperation of Spinnboden e. V. and Sonntags-Club e.V.
