16leben | Eskapismus
The artist group N-leben looks at the active aspect of escapist behavior and invites us to do so. Various escapist gestures will be tried out in several workshops.
Escapism is understood by the artists as a formative creative moment that asserts a connection to the world and does not flee from it.
The artists' group N-Leben, has been working for several years in ever-changing constellations on participatory exhibition concepts that invite everyone. We work in episodes that we carry as a consecutive number in our name. Each episode is a life. These episodes consist of temporary spaces in which art takes place and collaboration is invited.

18. April
19:00 Painting eyes - Mirjam Dorsch: There are always two people painting eyes. Mutual, or one-sided, as everyone likes. With eyes open or eyes closed, as everyone dares.
21:00 Concert: Electronic Music - Daniel Dorsch: https://danieldorsch.de/projects/electronic-live-act/
19. April
15:00 Painting eyes - Mirjam Dorsch: Invitation to action: There are always two people painting eyes. Mutual, or one-sided, as everyone likes. With eyes open or eyes closed, as everyone dares.
15:00 Silence and tea, infinite nothingness - Katharina Kamph and Huachao Chen: In the dialogue format "Silence and tea, infinite nothingness", Huachao Chen and Katharina Kamph talk with people about their idea of nothingness. Be it holes, empty spaces, what is still missing or what has already disappeared. Sitting in a circle, the tea drinkers are invited to remain silent for as long as it takes to finish their own cup. The shared conversation and philosophical dialogue is repeatedly interrupted by the drinking pauses. A framework is created in which the silent thought processes taking place become visible. In which the loss of words has a form and a place.
16: 00 Wir wiegen Ihren Stein. - Birgit Kunz and Lydia Moijzis: In their work "We weigh your stone", the two artists invite you to pick up a stone on the street or the footpath at the Lidl car park through intensive observation. To turn it into something special special. Escapism lies in the smallest gesture here. In the
immersion in a microcosm and the attempt to catalogue it, to catalogue it.

15:00 Legen sie Gurken ein - Birgit Kunz and Mona Schmidt: Legen Sie Gurken ein is a call to preserve. The beauty of preserving is that you know something was real. The jar of pickled cucumbers is the relic of a harvest. Work that preserves the abundance of one moment in time for a later one.

15:00 Haarspalten - Ji Un Roh: I was sitting in the centre of the room. Behind me stood a woman with a single-edged knife in her hand, whom I had invited three days earlier. She was splitting the hair on my head.
The public had been invited on the street, at the railway station and in museums in Berlin to appear with a knife whose blade I would sharpen in order to split my hair. The title "Hair Splitting", action, art, my name, the place and time of the action were printed on the invitation card, which was distributed in an edition of one hundred copies over two weeks. Only one woman brought her knife to the action.
That is a brief summary of my action. Through language I try to reflect the reality that is infinitely silent. But for a moment I can put myself in relation so that I can merely participate in the breaking fact. A moment is a form of beginning.*

19:00 Asche / Sound and dance performance - Huachao Chen and Mona Masuyama: Mona moves between clothing, movement and music. She is interested in how clothing can be perceived not only visually but also acoustically. For her music, she mixes experimentally recorded noise and piano sounds.
Huachao dances intuitively. He switches off his head while dancing. The body takes the initiative.
In this performance, an element ash is added, which is the reality that remains after the demise of reality. Reality and illusion, escapism and realism, day and night, zero and one, what is behind this world, which is dominated by dualism?
Pflanzentauschbörse zur Finissage am 20.05.2022
In den vergangenen Wochen haben wir, 15leben, den Leopoldplatz durchstreift, um die Blätter, Blüten und Fundstücke der lokalen Pflanzen mittels Rostdruck und Cyanotypie zu Papier zu bringen.
Zuhause wurde gesät und herangezogen. Nun sprießen langsam die Pflanzen im Garten und auf dem Balkon. Aber wohin mit den Pflanzen, die du nicht mehr haben willst? Bringt sie mit zur Pflanzentauschbörse.
Sie findet am 20.05.2022 um 19:00 Uhr
in den KHBstudios in der Nazarethkirchstr. 42, 13347 Berlin-Wedding, statt.
Wir freuen uns auf euch!
Am 09.05.2022 beginnt unser 15. Leben!
In unserem 15. Leben freuen wir uns Judith Lavagna als Teil der Künstler*innen-Gruppe n leben zu begrüßen.
Judith ist Kuratorin und Kunstvermittlerin und arbeitet in den Bereichen Bildende Kunst, Performance und Lebendes Archiv. Ihre Praxis zielt darauf ab, prozessuale Formate des Projektmachens in Bezug auf kollaborative und pädagogische Formen der Forschung zu schaffen und neu zu erfinden. Diese nehmen verschiedene Formen der Übertragung und Übersetzung durch die Schaffung von Workshops, Residenzen, Kollektiven, Ausstellungen, Publikationen, Performances oder Seminaren an.
Den ersten Teil unserer Landpartie vom 09.05.2022 bis zum 22.05.2022 verbringen wir gemeinsam in den KHBstudios in Berlin. Wir bieten folgende Termine an.
Am 10.05.2022 starten wir das zweiwöchige Programm mit dem ersten Workshop ab 19:00 Uhr. In diesem werden wir gemeinsam unter der Anleitung von Katharina Kamph die Technik des Rostdruckes erproben.
Im zweiten Workshop am 14.05.2022 führt Judith Lavagna in die Technik der Cyanotypie ein.
Den zweiten Teil der Landpartie verbringen wir im August in der Kunsthalle Below.
Weitere Termine und Uhrzeiten folgen zeitnah.
Das aktuelle Programm der KHBstudios findet ihr hier.

Rostdruck
Spaziergang und Workshop am 10.05.2022
In diesem Workshop wird Katharina Kamph die Teilnehmer*innen in das druckgrafische Verfahren des Rostdrucks einführen.
Eisen reagiert mit Wasser und Sauerstoff und es entsteht Rost. Der Rost wird bei diesem Verfahren als Farbe genutzt. Mit dem rostigen Wasser werden Naturmaterialien, zum Beispiel Blätter und Farne getränkt. Anschließend werden sie in Papiere gewickelt und ausgekocht. Der am Blatt konzentrierte Rost geht so langsam in das Papier über. Die Blätter und Pflanzen sammeln wir vorher bei einem gemeinsamen Spaziergang.
Das alles findet am 10.05.2022 um 19:00 Uhr in den KHBstudios in der Nazarethkirchstr. 42, 13347 Berlin-Wedding statt. Wir freuen uns auf euch!
Bitte bring Papiere zum Drucken mit!
Cyanotypie
Spaziergang und Workshop am 14.05.2022
In diesem Workshop wird Judith Lavagna die Teilnehmer*innen in das fotografische Verfahren der Cyanotypie einführen.
Wir sammeln Blätter und Pflanzen bei einem gemeinsamen Spaziergang. Die Fundstücke legen wir auf ein lichtempfindliches Papier. Durch die direkte Belichtung mit Sonnenlicht entstehen Fotogramme. Bekannt wurde das Verfahren durch die britische Naturwissenschaftlerin Anna Atkins, die Farne und andere Pflanzen mit diesem Verfahren dokumentierte.
Das alles findet am 14.05.2022 um 15:00 Uhr in den KHBstudios in der Nazarethkirchstr. 42, 13347 Berlin-Wedding, statt. Wir freuen uns auf euch!
Das Projekt wird als eine der Hybriden Reise-Werkstätten von AG Minimales Reisen und kulturgymnastik e.V. zusammen mit n Leben gefördert durch den Fonds Soziokultur aus Mitteln der Beauftragten der Bundesregierung für Kultur und Medien im Rahmen von NEUSTART KULTUR.
