“Visitors” takes as its focus the works of international students from HfG Karlsruhe. The exhibition aims to shed light on the different geographical, political and economic backgrounds that come together in our institution. Two main resources for our work will be HfG's archiving platform Madek and its analogue exhibition interface Portal that the HfG Open Resource Center has been developing.
How do people from abroad who study at the HfG shape the place? How do international students contribute to and challenge the HfG? We will work on preparing and realizing an exhibition based on diploma works of international students from previous generations.
For Visitors we have imagined an alternative geography or an alternative biography of HfG. It is designed around people who ‘visit’ and explore what that challenging gesture means.
Frische Fische kann Fischer Fritz nicht mehr fischen. Nicht erst seit seinem Schlaganfall. Sein Sohn Franz ist kein Fischer geworden, sondern Frisör in der Großstadt. Um den Vater zu versorgen hat er eine ausländische Pflegekraft engagiert. Ein Sprechtheater nennt die Autorin Raphaela Bardutzky ihr Stück, das bei den Autor*innentheatertage 2022 am Deutschen Theater in Berlin ausgezeichnet wurde. Sprachlich virtuos, tragisch-komisch und spielerisch leicht erzählt sie von Heimat und Fremde, Sehnsucht und Einsamkeit, Stadt und Land, Alter und Jugend. Im Anschluss findet ein Gespräch mit der Autorin Raphaela Bardutzky statt.
Beschreibung (en)
Fisherman Fritz can no longer catch fresh fish. Not just since his stroke. His son Franz has not become a fisherman, but a hairdresser in the big city. He has hired a foreign carer to look after his father. Author Raphaela Bardutzky calls her play, which won an award at the Autor*innentheatertage 2022 at the Deutsches Theater in Berlin, spoken theater. With virtuoso language, tragic-comic and playful lightness, it tells of home and foreignness, longing and loneliness, city and country, age and youth. This will be followed by a discussion with the author Raphaela Bardutzky.
