• Dropping In and Out — A Response to Uncertainty brings together artistic and scholarly perspectives that engage with the ruptures and detours in the biographies of deceased artists and historical female figures across various disciplines. Instead of linear success stories, the works unveil multifaceted narratives of exclusion, resistance, care, and communal forms of knowledge. Drawing on biographical research, letters, and artistic works, the exhibition presents multimedia pieces that emerged from an open dialogue within the framework of the interdisciplinary, artist-research project of the same name. The researchers engage, at times in deeply personal ways, with the lives of women from past centuries. In doing so, they reveal not only their own relationships to these historical figures, but also lesser-known episodes and developments in the women’s lives and work.

• The event series [Digital] Present Feminist Futures is dedicated to the feminist exploration of the internet at the interface of technology, art and activism by exploring the entanglements of digital and analogue forms of knowledge production. While at the beginning of the 1990s feminists saw an opportunity to overcome conventional gender roles through new digital discursive spaces in the new information and communication technology, still today the internet is a largely hegemonic, heteronormative and masculine structured and occupied space. In on- and offline lectures, workshops and multimedia performances, we want to create a platform for the production of new ideas of contemporary feminist (digital) culture. At the same time, we want to understand and question current processes and strategies. In doing so, we also seek to explore direct possibilities of action for the near or present feminist, queer and intersectional future. Here, forms of analogues knowledge production will be set in relation to the digital. Which feminist utopias or ideas of the future can already be lived today and are no longer utopian thanks to various digital devices? To what extent has feminist hope for the digital space as an emancipatory space been fulfilled to this day? How can actions look like when decidedly sexist or even misogynous digital spaces open up in which, for example, Incels connect themselves? How can (resistant) strategies and options for action appear to intervene in the digital space with feminist positions? Which apps are needed, for example? And what (analogous) knowledge would be useful here?
