Ausstellungseröffnung: Überlebenskunst – Konfliktbearbeitung durch textile Bilder (11.07.2012)

Hiermit sind Sie herzlich zur Eröffnung der Ausstellung ÜBERLEBENSKUNST –
KONFLIKTBEARBEITUNG DURCH TEXTILE BILDER am Mittwoch, den 11. Juli 2012, ab 18 Uhr in der Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Hamburg (Von-Melle-Park 3, 20146 Hamburg) einladen.

Die Ausstellung zeigt Arpilleras und Quilts aus Chile, Nordirland und Spanien, die auf expressive Weise Situationen politischer Gewalt thematisieren. Die Exponate sind Produkt einer persönlichen, künstlerischen Auseinandersetzung mit Repression und Krieg und mit der Frage, wie sich solche gewaltsamen Erfahrungen überwinden und verarbeiten lassen.

Bei der Ausstellungseröffnung am 11. Juli wird u.a. Roberta Bacic, die
Kuratorin der Ausstellung, sprechen. Frau Bacic stammt aus Chile und lebt seit einigen Jahren in Nordirland. Sie hat u.a. an der Wahrheits- und Versöhnungskommission in Chile mitgewirkt und für die Organisation War
Resisters’ International in London gearbeitet. Sie wird anhand ausgewählter Exponate in die Ausstellung einführen. Ausserdem spricht PD Dr. DR. Horacio Riquelme zum Thema “Die Bedeutung der Arpilleras zur Wiederaneignung des öffentlichen Raumes”.
