Artist Talk mit Zanele Muholi anlässlich der neuen Ausgabe von „Der Greif“

On the venue's site

The evening connects Zanele Muholi's artistic and activist practice with the 19th edition of "Der Greif", which Muholi shaped as guest curator. The starting point is Muholi's understanding of the environment as something that includes bodies, community, history and land: "You are the environment." After an introduction to the edition by co-editor Caroline von Courten, Zanele Muholi will give insight into their practice. In the subsequent panel discussion with Zanele Muholi, Caroline von Courten and Monika Bayer-Wermuth (Museum Brandhorst), the focus is on questions of co-dependency: what connects institutional voices and creative practitioners, and how can this relationship be reshaped beyond fixed attributions?

The evening concludes with drinks at the bar. At the same time, the exhibitions "In My Head" and "Long Story Short", in which a work by Muholi can be seen, remain open.
