> A project curated by Tatiana Bazzichelli and Gaia Novati.
> 9 May - 22 June 2008, Kunstraum Kreuzberg/Bethanien Berlin
> Sponsored by the Hauptstadtkulturfonds, with support from the Institut

>
> The exhibition project in Berlin, HACK.Fem.EAST, seeks to present
> experimental and artistic practices of artists and activists  
> working in
> digital networks in Eastern Europe.
>
> The focus of the exhibition is on presenting a use of media located
> somewhere between hacking, art and activism which is driven forward by
> an international counterculture and avant-garde: the main protagonists
> are women or projects in which women play an important role.
>
> The aim of the project is to provide and to develop a network  
> platform.
> This will be achieved through five elements: the exhibition, the
> workshops (Free Space), a conference, a publication in newspaper  
> format,
> and a website bringing the aspects of the project together.
>
> Existing networks from 11 countries are at the heart of the project  
> and
> form the basis of the exhibition. A total of 11 networks will be  
> invited
> to the various rooms of the Kunstraumes Kreuzberg/Bethanien to  
> introduce
> their work, their strategies and their aims in the form of
> installations, documentations and presentations. The result is a
> "network of networks", visualized in the form of video screenings,
> installations, computer presentations and documents.
>
> The activists will be offering a weekly workshop (Free Space)  
> throughout
> the duration of the exhibition. The workshops will be based on the
> respective presentations in the exhibition as well as on and aims and
> activities that have been developed further in the context of the  
> project.
>
> A conference held at the outset of the project is intended to bring  
> the
> lines and networks together and discuss on women perspective in the
> Eastern cultural scenario. Its aim is to provide a forum for a form of
> politics based on radical invention - media and internet art projects,
> performances, network platforms, software development, artistic  
> coding,
> organisation of media festivals, etc. As part of the publicity for the
> exhibition, a Berlin daily newspaper (taz) will be publishing a
> so-called NGO-supplement in an edition of 30.000 copies to coincide  
> with
> the opening. It will include articles that provide an introduction to
> the subject and give details regarding the programme.
>
> An integral component of the project is of course the website, with an
> up-to-date and open presentation of the project's processes and
> developments, summarizing them and putting them up for discussion.
