Artist talk accompanying the screening programme “Politics of Care. Care as Resistance” with Rob Crosse, Susann Maria Hempel and Stéphanie Lagarde.
Moderation: Anne Bitterwolf

In an age of overlapping ecological, political, and social crises, the question of care and responsibility takes on enormous significance. Who cares for whom, and under what conditions? How can we think of care beyond normative role models, structural isolation, and exploitation? In light of the climate crisis, wars, growing social inequality, and the profound experiences during the pandemic, one thing is clear: without radically rethinking care work, a more just future cannot be achieved. The group screening brings together three video works that deal with practices of care. Starting from the private sphere, the works develop perspectives on care beyond the neoliberal burden of personal responsibility and examine how solidarity can be conceived and lived.
