Of Everyday Horror And Nightmares

event information:

Everyday horror is our social horror.  Daddy makes his cross on the right now? Horror. Parents visiting in the small town? Horror. Cousin likes to eat families? Horror. Hair in the drain? Horror. Donald and Elon takeover?  Fake news? Wars? Smombies? ☠️💀☠️💀! Horror when the masters of politics cancel culture! Misanthropy, factory farming, stone in the shoe? Don’t get us started! Wir invite you to the Werk*raum to counteract the blunting. We’re going for an artistic all-round show, analyzing horror and scaring it. This evening is ambitious – and the cast is correspondingly high-caliber: Sibel Polat, Nadina Memagić and Elias Krischke read texts from Barbi Marković’s magnificent short story collection Minihorror (Residenz Verlag 2023), “an impossible book” according to the Austrian Falter. No one can invent such bizarre stories and then write them in such weird sentences. No one except Barbi Marković.”. Performance artist Milena Wohjan explores the last forms of Maximilian Street horror. Exactly where wealth mutates into a pus dream. And with Dr. Nahlah Saimeh comes Germany’s most prominent forensic psychiatrist. She will scientifically penetrate the topic for us. Gina Penzkofer, Sophie Eisenried and Sebastian Reier will host the evening. We will listen to horror cassettes from his collection of fossil recordings. 📸 Julian Baumann, Florian Laufhuette, Fabian Frinzel, Nina Mašić, Sigrid Reinichs, Frank Egel (R.I.P.), Neven Allgeier, Ralf Zenker, Artwork: Mia Kennedy @hairy.violet
