Art in Public Space Event: „Catalogue of Laments (The scroll of How)“

We cordially invite you to two events as part of the ‘Diadeo Tresor’ art in urban space project by Kandis Friesen, which is part of KISR Leipziger Straße.

Diadéo trésor is a sculptural installation for disrupting monumental memory in a green space on the corner of Leipziger Straße and Jerusalemstraße in Berlin-Mitte. An integral component is the punctual activation of the installation through a series of commissions by Kandis Friesen. Firstly, two sound installations that react to the sculptural installation and the stories, places and surfaces associated with it: Diadéo Speaks by Nour Sokhon and The Witness' Scars. Assembling Tales of Leipziger Straße by Saverio Cantoni and Nicole Angela Pearson. Both works can be listened to free of charge via the Echoes app for the entire duration of Diadéo trésor.

Walkshop: The Catalogue of Laments (The scroll of How) with Talya Lubinsky

Saturday, October 12, 2024  | 14h00-17h30,

The Catalogue of Laments (The scroll of How) is a site-specific collective indexing exercise, aimed at making explicit the overlapping themes of hegemonic histories and their attentive counter-narratives, located in the vicinity of Leipziger Strasse, Berlin Mitte. This walkshop takes place in the framework of the public installation Diadéo trésor by Kandis Friesen. It convenes several sites in the surrounding area as samples from which to codify the structural connections between ostensibly disparate episodes of violence and shared grammars of erasure, exposing the potential for coming together on common grounds for resistance and solidarity.
