Workshops

1000 Tiny Sexes

This workshop seeks to catalyze creative thinking about the ways that sex is multiple (more than just MALE or FEMALE). With the help of images and stories about tiny and always differently incarnated sexes we will treat ourselves to tiny exercises in thinking outside of the gender box.

Peeping

The peep-box view is a limited view. When we can not see everything we tend to make our own conclusions and explanations to fill up the gaps. We have the urge to make the vision clearer; we make an effort to see. It is a dreamlike experience. For this reason there is a surrealistic touch in the project. The participants will create their own peep-boxes, a multidimensional adventure through the world of auto-sexuality and voyeurism.

PROGRAM 8. MEDNARODNEGA FESTIVALA RDEČE ZORE

Festival bo med 6. in 11. marcem 2007 v Ljubljani potekal na šestih različnih prizoriščih znotraj AKC Metelkove mesta in v Socialnem centru tovarne Rog. Del programa bo gostoval v Izbruhovem kulturnem bazenu v Kranju, Mladinskem kulturnem centru Koper in Mladinskem centru Podlaga v Sežani.

Rdeče zore so feministični in queer festival. Festival podpira umetnost in aktivizem, ki prekinja s pričakovanji, navadami, predstavami in vlogami, ki nas potiskajo v ta ali oni spol. Festival se ne obremenjuje z iskanjem biološkega ali celo značajskega »bistva« žensk, zato si dovoljuje igrive in resnobne odmike od »usode«. Iz metafizike »ženstvenosti« in »možatosti« pozornost preusmerja v vsakdanje podcenjevanje in izkoriščanje žensk, moških in... vseh ostalih.

Vabljena/e/i/o/u na praznovanje!

Rdeče zore.

Pri tem pa želimo izpostaviti predvsem naslednje teme: prostitucija in trgovanje z belim blagom, spolna strukturiranost prostitucije in nenazadnje, kakšne spremembe je prinesla dekriminalizacija prostitucije v Sloveniji.

Hočemo izostriti pogled; skušamo videti. Kukanje je skrivno in prepovedano iskanje skrivnosti. Je sanjam podobna izkušnja. Zato ima delavnica pridih nadrealizma. Udeleženke in udeleženci bodo naredili svoje lastne škatle s kukali in s se odpravili na večdimenzionalne pustolovščine v svet avtoseksualnosti in vojerizma.

PEEPING

During Red Dawns Katja Kähkönen, paper theatre puppeteer guesting the festival with her performance Dark Paradise, will lead a workshop based on the technique of classic peep-show-box. The participants will create their own peep-boxes, a multidimensional adventure through the world of autosexuality and voyeurism. Katja explains:

The peep show box deals with the idea of a limited view. When we can not see everything we tend to make our own conclusions and explanations to fill up the gaps. We have the urge to make the vision clearer; we make an effort to see. Peeping is slightly forbidden. Peeping is about searching for secrets in a secrecy. It is also about looking into a strange and unreachable world. When peeping we are conscious of the body being in one and the sight in another space. It is a dreamlike experience. For this reason there is a surrealistic touch in the project; peeping is about being at the border of dreams and the physical world. The limited view creates illusions and the illusions play with our desires and weaknesses.

It sounds almost out-of-worthly, but includes a lot of cutting, gluing, drawing and building. Create your own secret space, fill it with your desires and dreams, and open a tiny gate through which it can be gazed at in privacy.

The workshop is free and open for anybody interested. Please, let us know in advance (until March 1^st) that you are coming to: rdece.zore@gmail.com (Subject: Peeping).

FESTIVAL NETWORK MEETING

Network of women’s, feminist and queer festivals in the Balkans

1^st Meeting at 8^th Red Dawns Festival

March 11^th 2007 at 15h, Menza pri koritu, AKC Metelkova mesto, Ljubljana, Slovenia

In October 2006, Red Dawns festival from Ljubljana sent a call for co-operation in Slovenian, Croatian and English to all the below listed women’s, feminist and queer festivals in the region. Even though these festivals largely differ in terms of their political views, artistic visions, festival programmes, audience and also in terms of their level of professionalism and financial status, the responses from the majority of festivals were very supportive of Red Dawns’ call for co-operation.

Most festival organizers agreed that there is a great need for communication between the festivals. Even though separate festivals have co-operated in the past (mainly by exchanging parts of programmes), there has been no attempts at co-operation on a more structured and profound level.

After an e-mail exchange of opinions, we have come to the conclusion that we need to see each other as soon as possible in order to get to know each other’s work better and make a detailed plan of our future co-operations. Red Dawns festival therefore invites you to Ljubljana where we can and hopefully will discuss the following issues:

1) on-line network as an effective tool for dissemination of information, exchange of ideas and mutual support (we will divide the work needed in order to make the web-based network functional)

2) possibilities for practical co-operation in 2007 (exchange of workers, exchange of programmes, joined organisation of individual events that require more work and finances than each separate festival could afford to do and invest, etc.)

3) possibilities for joined fund raising (division of work for writing applications to the following foundations: European Cultural Foundation, European Commission Youth in Action – Programme 5, Global Fund for Women and Mama Cash and possibly other foundations): for separate festivals, for joined organisation of events and for the next network meeting

4) future network meetings (Ana Jereb will present the idea that the next meeting with all festivals’ representatives present could be in September 2007 as part of the 2^nd annual Feminist Summer School; but we will discuss also other options)

The main reason why we want to organise a meeting already in March is that there is a very practical need for it: most festivals are due to happen in April and May. Since we would like to exchange programmes, this is the best time to discuss it. Since some of the festivals are not only lacking in programme items but also lacking in practical organisation skills, promotion skills, and also in fund-raising knowledge, we feel that this meeting can be a great opportunity to share our experiences and hopefully learn from each other.

WORKSHOP: FIX YOUR BYCICLE!

This shall be a workshop to learn about some basics in bicycle repairing, open for all women and transgender people. What we will do exactly during the workshop will depend on what the participants want to learn, what they already know, but also on what kind of bikes, spare-parts and tools are brought. We will have some stuff there, but the best is if you just bring your bike (also if it's not broken) and, if you have, also tools and spareparts.

We will also try to prepare a list of important tools in English and Slovene.

You don't necessarily need to apply for the workshop, though it would be better so we can prepare ourselves accordingly.

Workshop will be in English language. The exact dates and place will be publishe later on www.metelkova.org/rdece If you have any questions regarding the workshop, write to: rdece.zore@gmail.com (Subject: Bycicle Workshop)

O PROSTITUCIJI - PREDAVANJE, OKROGLA MIZA, DOKUMENTARNI FILMI

17.00, Menza pri koritu

Predavanje predstavnice italijanske organizacije Comitato per i Diritti Civili delle Prostitute ONLUS (Komite za državljanske pravice prostitutk Onlus) iz Pordenoneja.

CDCP ONLUS so l.1982 ustanovile seksualne delavke in je namenjen podpori osebam, ki se ukvarjajo s prostitucijo. Organizirajo različne kampanje za senzibilizacijo in ozaveščanje o pravicah in dostojanstvu seksualnih delavk in delavcev, spodbujajo in omogočajo usposabljanja za opomočenje seksualnih delavk ter za dvig kvalitete življenja seksualnih delavk.

Okrogla miza O prostituciji

Moderator: Mitja Blažič

Sodelujejo: dr. Majda Hrženjak (Mirovni inštitut), Katjuša Kodele Kos (Društvo Ključ), Marlenna in dr. Zoran Kanduč (Inštitut za kriminologijo).

Namen okrogle mize je odpreti vprašanje prostitucije nasploh, saj menimo da je relevantnost omenjene tematike prepogosto marginalizirana, premalo analizirana in predvsem tabuizirana v javnem prostoru.

Zakaj se vedno govori samo o ženski prostituciji? Kaj je z moško prostitucijo? Kakšna je povezava med prostitutcijo in trgovanjem z belim blagom? Zakaj je v zahodni družbi že spolnost na sploh tako tabuizirano področje govora, kaj šele spolnost za denarno menjavo? In čeprav nas oglasi o nudenju spolnih uslug gledajo iz številnih časopisov in ne malo spletnih strani, pa o prostituciji ni govora, le malo člankov in študij. In zakaj so osebe, ki se ukvarjajo s to dejavnostjo vedno ocenjevane, po eni strani kot žrtve in po drugi kot nemoralne in 'umazane', ki se morajo skrivati in sramovati svojega dela? Pri tem pa se popolnoma pozabi na njihove odjemalce, o katerih se ne govori.

Razmišljali bomo o različnih vidikih prostitucije in se ne zatekali k njenemu vrednotenju. Naš interes se bo tako osredotočil na pomen prostitucije v družbi, zlasti iz vidika zakonodaje, prostitutke kot žrtve in prostitucije kot vrste dela ter njeno umeščenost v našem prostoru. Pri tem pa želimo izpostaviti predvsem naslednje teme: prostitucija in trgovanje z belim blagom, spolna strukturiranost prostitucije in nenazadnje, kaj je prinesla dekriminalizacija prostitucije v Sloveniji.

Po okrogli mizi sledijo projekcije dokumentarnih filmov o trgovini z ženskami. Dokumentarci se ukvarjajo s področjem Balkana, iz katerega Slovenijia ni izvzeta. Nasprotno. V dokumentarcu Nadje Ridžić, denimo, na posnetkih racije v enem od bosanskih nočnih barov lahko prepoznamo tudi slovenske diplomate...

Why SEX? This project seeks to create a collective reimagining of sex as a biological, legal, political, economic and cultural category.

We want people to use the resulting publication to experiment with tiny ways and tiny actions to think outside the gender box.

Poziv za sudjelovanje

u umjetničkom dijelu FemFest-a (feminističkoga festivala) 2007.

Zagreb, SC, 10.-12. svibnja 2007.

FemFest i u ovogodišnjem izdanju ima potrebu propitati ustaljene predodžbe o umjetnosti i otvoriti mogućnosti za nove i drugačije pristupe u njezinom razumijevanju.

Ove se godine radi toga približavamo konceptu community art-a i naglasak stavljamo na specifične lokalne probleme – probleme zajednice. Community art kao koncept umjetnosti naglašava procesualnost i istraživanje umjesto gotovih rezultata; povezuje umjetnost i svakodnevnicu, nudi umjetnost kao medij i jezik društvene komunikacije, spaja teoriju, aktivizam i umjetnost te dovodi u pitanje »elitističke« predodžbe umjetnosti.

Ovakav pristup umjetnosti zapravo omogućava propitivanje njezine moći i odgovornosti koju ona ima u odnosu na društvo tj. njezinu društvenu ulogu. Uvođenjem se teme zajednice u umjetnost propituje njezino mjesto u zajednici, odnosno njezina sposobnost komunikacije za zajednicu i o zajednici. Umjetnost je, svojim različitim formama i sadržajima, bila i jest sastavni dio feminističke teorije i prakse te jezik i medij kojim se komuniciraju preokupacije feminizma. Upravo je stoga spoj aktivizma i teorije kroz umjetnost onaj trenutak u kojem se feminizam i community art posebno susreću. Baš na taj zanimljivi susret i njegovo propitivanje posebno želimo fokusirati pažnju u ovogodišnjem programu Festivala.

U tom nas smislu prije svega zanimaju radovi vezani za mogućnost komunikacije kroz angažiranu umjetnost, odnosno njezinu sposobnost da ostvari transkulturnu i transgeneracijsku komunikaciju, kao i komunikaciju među različitim društvenim grupama, klasama, (ne)identitetima i sl. Upravo radi svega navedenoga, a uz koncept community art-a, zanimljivi će nam biti i radovi koji će, ukorak s temom ovogodišnjega simpozija FemFesta, propitivati poziciju Slobode u privatnom i javnom.

Radovi mogu biti na različitim jezicima, žanrovima i medijima (glazba, film, vizualne i performativne umjetnosti, multimedija, književnost i druge umjetnosti).

Prijavu radova, tehničke specifikacije s cjelokupnim troškovnikom treba poslati do 10. travnja (aprila) 2007. na našu e-mail adresu femfest_art@yahoo.com.

Više informacija o FemFestu 2007. možete naći na našoj web stranici www.femfest.net.

ANFEMA FEST ZAGREB - POZIV

You're invited to actively participate in the first Anarcha-feminist festival in Zagreb (Croatia) that will be held on the 13^th, 14^th and 15^th of April, 2007.

The program is imagined to contain a number of lessons, discussions, video projections, workshops, exhibitions, presentations and performances that introduce, describe, fulfill, expand and define the term and the idea of anarcha-feminism.

The festival will last for three days (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) while we're preparing a d.i.y. harcore punk gig on the first and second day.

We also hope to attract as much guests from abroad so we could have a richer and more diverse program. However, groups and individuals from the former Eastern Block/Eastern Europe are given the advantage because we want to connect and get to know each other better so that, by cooperating, we could talk about the problems we believe we share.

Since the Croatian policy hopes to integrate in the EU, it is in the same position as, for instance, Czech Republic and Poland were so we can learn about the upcoming problems from their experience and share the experience and models of solutions with countries in the similar situation.

We hope that Zagreb will attract guests from many different places thanks to its location between Poland and Romania and become a meeting point for anarcha-feminists every year. Hoping to create a diverse program, we're inviting guests from abroad, but since some of them come from countries with lower life standards, we are fully aware of the financial problem and are actively working on collecting money for travel expenses to make it possible for a bigger number of participants to come.

Since we're an anarcha-feminist group of affinities that believes in self-sufficiency, solidarity and d.i.y. principles of organization, by this we appeal for solidarity in organizing benefit gigs or collecting donations. If you want to contribute, contact us on anfemafest@gmail.com and come to support!

For further information see www.anfemafest.tk

Please send this invitation to everyone you think that might be interested!
