Maria Hlavajova
Op 24 maart 2015 presenteert artistiek directeur Maria Hlavajova van BAK een lezing met de titel Thinking Out Loud: Practices of Art in the Era of the Disenchanted, waarin ze de onderzoeksprojecten FORMER WEST en Future Vocabularies behandelt om te reflecteren op de vraag langs welke wegen we zouden kunnen vooruitblikken op wat we ooit de ’toekomst’ noemden.
Deze lezing vindt plaats in het kader van de reeks Curating Europe’s Futures, een serie van gezamenlijk georganiseerde discussies die hedendaagse artistieke en curatorenpraktijken verkent die zich kritisch hebben verhouden tot de processen van sociaaleconomische herstructurering, identiteitspolitiek, genderdynamiek en cultuurbeleid in het Europa van ‘na de Blokken’.

In all continents, people have built matriarchal cosmologies sustained by complex rituals. In the advent of main modern religions and after centuries of colonizing invasions, the goddesses of antiquity were suppressed by the patriarchal structures that consolidated our era. However, they found ways to speak to us in the language of patterns, melodies, and poems. This workshop uses the voice as a method to reveal the presence of goddesses.
