Das Format der Probe wird in Test Drive zur Arbeitsmethode erklärt. Die Funktion der Probe wird als ein nicht definiertes, unproduktives und ergebnisloses Format verstanden, das sich Gedanken von Effizienz und Perfektion entgegensetzt. Das Potential von Zufall, Wiederholung, Unterbrechung, von Scheitern und Neuanfang wird innerhalb dieser Form der Arbeit erschlossen. Im Gegensatz zum klassischen Verständnis der Probe, die der Perfektionierung eines Endprodukts, der Aufführung, dient, widmet sich die Arbeit keinem eindeutigen Ziel und öffnet sich dem Gedanken des Unfertigen. Der Prozess wird zum Ziel einer ziellosen Arbeit. Gleichermaßen werden in Test Drive herkömmliche Strukturen und Hierarchien außer Kraft gesetzt, innerhalb derer szenografische Arbeit heute vorrangig stattfindet. Der ergebnisoffene Charakter der Probe bedarf keiner Textgrundlagen oder dramaturgischer Konzepte und ermöglicht es so, den Raum zum Ausgangspunkt der Arbeit werden zu lassen.
Die Installation Test Drive besteht aus einem 4-Kanal-Video, Sound und einer quadratischen Konstruktion (ca. 3,0 x 3,0 x 1,0 m) aus Holz, Stahlprofilen, Rigipsplatten und Bildschirmen. Die unterschiedlich angeordneten Bestandteile des Displays sind in mehreren Schichten übereinandergelegt und bilden ein Tragwerk

“Critical Zones”: Developing concepts and approaches for grasping the New Climatic Regime (Bruno Latour), that is the transformations in the relations of humans to their “terrestrial” conditions of existence. – The seminar series of Bruno Latour at HfG analyses these transformations as epistemic breaks and shifts of knowledge by drawing an analogy to the scientific revolution in the 17th century, where, after a crisis of former sound knowledge, new epistemic systems, representations and narrations in art, science, and religion had to be constructed and reintegrated into new dispositifs of knowledge. The project tackles an important aesthetic question, which overpasses simple forms of illustration of knowledge: How central is the imaginary capacity of the arts in constructing representations and narrations that are depictions and “generators” of new knowledge systems and therefore vital means of cultural change?
The exhibition at HfG in November will display some preliminary results of the projects developed by the seminar participants. It presents an opportunity to discuss – in a mode of work-in-progress – research questions, aesthetic approaches and epistemic experiments with colleagues and students of HfG and ZKM.

„Present Tense” beschäftigt sich mit unserer unmittelbaren Gegenwart: Wir leben in einer komplexen, krisenhaften Zeit, in der die Überlagerung von Klima- und Energiekrise, Postpandemie, Prekarität und Konkurrenz, gesellschaftlicher Radikalisierung bis hin zu näher rückenden Kriegen bereits jetzt gravierende Auswirkungen auf unser Leben und Arbeiten hat. Die Anspannung steigt, wir stehen vor dringlichen gesamtgesellschaftlichen Aufgaben und bewegen uns zugleich in Richtung eines Zustands chronischer Erschöpfung. Das etablierte Kunstfeld und die künstlerische und kulturelle Produktion sind davon nicht ausgenommen. Mit Künstler:innen, Kurator:innen und anderen Expert:innen des kulturellen Feldes möchten wir den Blick auf die aktuelle künstlerische Produktion und Ausstellungspraxis richten und die Frage nach möglichen (Zukunfts-)perspektiven für das Kunstfeld diskutieren:
Welche gesellschaftliche Rolle können und müssen Kunst und ihre Produzent:innen in einer sich radikal verändernden Welt einnehmen? Wie können Kunst- und Kulturinstitutionen zu Orten aktiver gesellschaftlicher Transformation werden? Was bedeutet es, eine (ökologisch wie sozial) nachhaltige künstlerische und institutionelle Praxis in der digitalen Gegenwart zu entwickeln? Welche neuen Gemeinschaften brauchen wir, gerade im Hinblick auf die zunehmende gesellschaftliche Spaltung und Radikalisierung? Offensichtlich führt die krisenhafte Gegenwart u. a. dazu, dass sich Menschen nach autoritären Figuren und Programmen sehen – eine Aufgabe von Kunst und Kultur könnte es sein, andere, freiere Konzepte von Zukunft zu entwerfen.
Auch das Konzept der Fürsorge in der künstlerischen und kuratorischen Praxis wird Thema der Veranstaltung sein. Teil des Symposiums sind neben Vorträgen künstlerische Workshops, Interventionen und Performances, die wir als gleichwertige Formen der Wissensproduktion und -vermittlung begreifen.

„Present Tense” concerns itself with our immediate present: We live in a complex, crisis-filled age in which the overlapping of climate and energy crisis, post-pandemic times, precarity, social radicalisation and even impending wars already govern our lives and work. Tension is rising, we are faced with imperative responsibilities for society as a whole and are, at the same time, moving towards a state of chronic exhaustion. There is no exception for the field of arts and artistic and cultural production.
Together with artists, curators and other experts from the cultural field, we would like to examine current artistic productions and exhibition practices and discuss possibilities for the (future) perspectives of the arts. Which roles within society can and must art and its producers embrace in a radically changing world? How can art and cultural institutions become venues of active social transformation? What does it mean to develop an (ecologically as well as socially) sustainable artistic and institutional practice in the digital present? The concept of care within artistic and curatorial practices will be a topic of the event as well.
What new relationships do we need, especially in view of intensifying social division and radicalisation? Obviously, the crisis-filled present among other things leads to people looking to authoritarian figures and programmes – one of the tasks for art and culture could be to design other, more independent and free concepts of the future.
In addition to lectures and panels, the symposium will include artistic workshops, interventions and performances, which are also forms of knowledge production and dissemination that we feel to be of equal importance.
