Vernissage of the exhibit "THE INVISIBLE"

 

Initiative SAVE NUJIN, students of Kunsthochschule Kassel und local artists held an exhibition in Kassel for three weeks.
The exhibition was not only about the historical significance of the "Statue of Peace, Nujin" that was demolished in Kassel, but also about women's rights and anti-war issues.
Each participant expressed their political stance against the removal of the statue by Kassel University or their personal feelings about the human rights abuses that still occur in wars around the world.
The exhibition was held at Mimikri Kassel e.V. from 29.05.2024 to 14.06.2024.

Amöeba Collective supports the Initiative SAVE NUJIN. We shot video clips in Osaka to create a new short film about the comfort women that Japanese imperialism systematically used in its colonies during World War II. We will never forget the mistakes and war crimes of the past in order to build a better future.

MEDUSA, THE HERO

 

MEDUSA, THE HERO / relief in terracotta / 34X34X5cm / 2024

She is not a bitch, she is not a sub-character of our mythology.
She is the real hero who has captivated the world.
Every woman in the world today is her sister.

BAHNSINN : Kulturbahn? Oder Nur-bahnhof? #3

There was a bitter sweet performance's night. On 31.Dec.2023 in the evening, participants of project PIRATEN KANAL KASSEL made a protest demonstration against gentrification by Deutsche Bahn under the title of "BAHNSINN : KULTURBAHNHOF? ODER NUR-BAHNHOF?" at Kassel central station. In fact, the behind story of this new year's event in public places is somewhat bleak. DB has decided not to extend individual contracts with local artists in Franz Ulrich street which is located just behind Kassel central station, and as a result all nearby artists had to leave their studios by the end of December 2023.

Teaser of the performance BAHNSINN / FHD video / 00:01:30 / 2024

The event supposed to start at 4pm, but it was delayed around 1 and half hour due to technical problems at Franz Ulrich. When the first performance began, Daniel Hofmann, dressed in a ticket machine costume, and Tobias Sauer, dressed in an East German military uniform reminiscent of a German railway official, began to issue tickets to the audience.

The second show was planned by Fabian Gimpel and Spiders at Stellwerk but also canceled because of same problems as Franz Ulrich. Anyway Tobias and Daniel made an interview with the reporter of HNA in front of Stellwerk.

(On 08.Jan.2024, we had another performance day for Fabian Gimpel.)

The third show was released by Daniel Hofmann and Vishnoir Kim at the piano hall of the Kassel central station. It consists of Daniel's playing piano and Vishnoir's performance of the body extension with costumes.

Tobias Sauer read the statement against the gentrification by Deutsche Bahn at the lobby of Bali Kinos. After this performance, the fourth shows were two different sound stages by Joshua Weitzel & Nagai Chie and by Spiders.

The last stage was film screening at Bali Kinos. 9 films were selected by Tobias Sauer and Smilla Siebenschock. It started at 7:30 and took around 2 hours.

We had general rehearsals before one day at Kassel central station. Bali Kinos, Stellwerk, Piano hall in the station and Franz Ulrich will be the stages of our event. Tobias Sauer recruited participants for this event, Fabian Gimpel designed the poster, Christoph Neugebauer is the main cameraman, and Alisa Siebert is the secondary cameraman.

This is the final poster for this event.

The main logo is an imitation of Deutsche Bahn's official logo.
