Feminismus und Sprache
Gendern oder nicht gendern? Das ist hier die Frage!

Die deutsche Sprache gilt, genau wie die französische, als männlich dominiert. In den letzten Jahren gab es daher zahlreiche Versuche, der Sprache auf beiden Seiten des Rheins an den Kragen zu gehen und das Problem zu beheben. Und so tobt auch hier seit einiger Zeit der Geschlechterkampf.

Artistic encounters

The Artistic Encounters series brings together the work of two different artists in one space, at the same time. The artists who are part of performance series bring their individual art to the stage while speaking to that of the artist they are working with to create new work.
