»Stroj je utrujen in izčrpan,« je leta 2020 dejal filozof Bayo Akomolafe, ko je govoril o ljudeh v času katastrofe in krize. Kakšne so posledice prekomernega izkoriščanja na telesih umetniških delavk_cev (zlasti tistih v živih umetnostih) v kapitalističnem svetu? V zadnjih nekaj letih so številni misleci svojo okoljsko zaskrbljenost preusmerili v razmišljanje o odrasti. Spreminjanje notranjega ritma človeškega telesa je prvi in precej zahteven korak. Kako živeti to pretirano izkoriščanje? Se ga sploh zavedamo? Kaj pomeni »upočasniti se«? Upočasnitev se ne nanaša zgolj na funkcijo hitrosti, temveč tudi na zavedanje. Spreminja doživljanje časa. Pomeni, da ne sprejemamo tega, da smo stroji, temveč da smo prisotni in upoštevamo prisotnost drugih. Ali dejansko lahko počivamo? Je lahko počitek aktivna oblika upora proti produktivnosti in neskončnemu napredku?
Tukaj je »praktična« delavnica o počitku!
Ta delavnica, četrta v seriji, ki se je začela lani aprila na festivalu Trouble v Bruslju, nadaljevala septembra na New Performance Turku Biennale na Finskem in nato še novembra na festivalu MIRfestival v Atenah, je namenjena umetniškim delavcem z vseh področij. Delavnica bo posvečena raziskovanju, kako se upreti s skupinskim počitkom.
Delavnico Počitek kot upor so zasnovali Mara Anjoli Vujić, Christiana Galanopoulou, Leena Kela in Antoine Pickels. Vodijo jo Christiana Galanopoulou, Antoine Pickels, Leena Kela.
Delavnica bo potekala v Gledališču Glej 25. januarja od 11.30 do 14.00 v angleškem jeziku.
Prijave zbiramo do 22. januarja 2024.
Prosimo, da na delavnico pridete v udobnih oblačilih.
ENG:
In 2020, while talking about humans in times of catastrophe and crisis, the philosopher Bayo Akomolafe stated "The machine is tired and exhausted”. What are the results of over-exploitation on the bodies of art workers (and especially those working in live arts) in the capitalist world? During the past few years many thinkers have turned their ecological concerns into reflecting on de-growth. Changing the internal rhythm of the human body is the first and quite demanding step. How do we live this over-exploitation? Are we aware of it? What does it mean “to slow down”? Slowing down doesn’t refer merely to the function of speed, but to awareness. It changes the experience of time. It means not accepting to be a machine, but to be present and to acknowledge the presence of others. Can we actually rest? Can resting be an active form of resistance to the sense of productivity and endless progress?
Here is a “hands-on” workshop about rest!
This workshop, the fourth in a series that started in Brussels during the Trouble festival last April, continued in Finland at the New Performance Turku Biennale in September, and went on at MIRfestival in Athens in November, addresses art workers from every field. This workshop will be dedicated to the research resistance by resting together.
Rest as resistance was conceived by Mara Anjoli Vujić, Christiana Galanopoulou, Leena Kela and Antoine Pickels. The workshop will be led by Christiana Galanopoulou, Antoine Pickels, Leena Kela.
The workshop will take place in Glej Theatre on 25th of January from 11:30 to 14:00, and will be held in English.
Applications are being accepted until January 22nd 2024.
Please wear comfortable clothes.
