Kolloquium Warburgs Passage

5.—7. August 2022, ab 17 Uhr
„Es ist höchste Zeit, dass das Denken wieder das wird, was es in Wirklichkeit ist: gefährlich für den Denker.“ Jean-Luc Godard

Wo gibt es Raum für selbstgefährdende Forschungsprozesse, innere Reisen, bei denen wir nichts von dem finden, wonach wir suchen, nur etwas von uns, von dem wir nicht wussten, dass es existiert. Sind Sanatorien, Psychiatrien und Künstlerhäuser nicht auch Häuser derGastfreundschaft, offen für unvordenkliche Empfindungen und Prozesse, die in uns geschehen, die aber nicht wir sind?
Das Kolloquium versteht sich als eine Einladung an die verschiedensten Sprachen und Sprechformen, sich ins Vernehmen zu setzen und zusammen in See zu stechen.

The two artists Natalia Peredvigina and Kirill Agafonov are our guests for another time. We are very happy to welcome them with us again!
Until the end of August they will work in the guest studio and further develop their project Embassy together with interested collaborators.
On Friday, August 5, they will present the concept of the project.

Natalia Peredvigina and Kirill Agafonov:
In the guest studio Gleis70, artists Natalia Peredvigina and Kirill Agafonov will open a joint “Embassy” and present personal “microterritories” that previously made up Gorod Ustinov. 
“Embassy” is a series of meetings / exhibitions where Natalia and Kirill present their works, as well as artifacts of other authors and “microterritories”, offering the public discussion and joint artistic practice. 

“Working at the level of microdiplomacy, we are opening an embassy of our own and close microterritories, interacting with new microterritories of people and places. We propose during the meeting/exhibition to present what supports you, what constitutes the symbolic land on which you live.”
As a point on the map Ustinov does not exist. This was the name of the city of Izhevsk in 1984-1987. In the period 2010-2022, a micro-art-group / collective “microterritory” worked under this name, whose residents were born in 1986 and associated themselves with a place that does not exist, inventing their own space and time.

In continuation of the collective artistic practice, the personal “microterritories” of Natalia Peredvigina and Kirill Agafonov move and exist simultaneously in various locations, participating in Russian and European exhibitions, biennales and festivals of contemporary art. Artifacts of their “microterritories” are in the collection of the MSK Museum of Fine Arts (Ghent, Belgium) and private collections.

Wir freuen uns über Euren Besuch! – We are looking forward to welcoming you!

MISE EN PLACE COOKS! – IN PARTNERSHIP WITH DELI SOCIAL

11-20.08.22 / Pop-up restaurant in Lausanne 
27.08.22 / Day-time feast at La Becqueabgesagt !!!
 
La Becque is thrilled to partner up with Mise en Place Cooks!, a program developed by our friends Deli Social in Lausanne, to host its first one-month experimental culinary residency. Starting from July 27, designer Pauline Lemberger and her project partner Joëlle Dorigo will experiment with recipes based on a proposal which spans themes of pregnancy, motherhood, retirement and preservation, and share many concerns with La Becque’s focus themes centered on nature, the environment and technologies (new and archaic). Joëlle (69) and Pauline (30) will present their vision of meaningful, contemporary dining over the course of 10 evenings in Lausanne at Deli Social (11-20.08.22), followed by a celebratory conclusive feast at La Becque on August 27. Stay tuned for more information regarding schedules and reservations. 

Mise en Place’s program, whose model combines artistic residency and business incubator aspects, offers a unique opportunity for projects that deal with all things edible. This year, program laureates Pauline and Joëlle chose to focus their research on the Golden Month, a four-week period following the birth of a child in which the mother is celebrated and culinary specialties abound.

As a common practice found in similar forms in many cultures, Pauline and Joëlle are taking advantage of this tradition to explore new recipes, but also to question the concept of time in the kitchen. If we often demand freshness of ingredients, what do we do with those that age? The duo will seek to bring out the best in each ingredient and preserve them for as long as possible, drawing inspiration from the culinary traditions of the Golden Month. Inspired by their own experiences, they also take on the subject of retirement that is seen as a “golden age” period, where people have the time to do whatever they want. Which role does food play in this period? Thus, what would be the best feast for pregnant women? Or the best festive meal for retired people? Over food, Pauline and Joëlle will share their experiences and questions with the audience during their residency.
