For Hannah Arendt, action and speech create a space between participants, which can find its location almost any time and anywhere. It is the space of appearance. The space where I appear to others, as others appear to me. By mounting the commemorating brass plaque at the building we propose that the porch at the Hannah Arendt Center becomes a space of appearance \u2013 a space stripped of some layers of legislation, a space for negotiating, engaging, testing and acting in relation to each other and specific materials and objects in dialogue with some aspects of Hannah Arendt\u2019s life and thinking. <\/p>\n

The curator Olga Kopenkina writes about the exhibition: Feminism Is Politics!<\/em> is an inquiry into what is conceptualized by feminists and queer\/lesbians in the 21st century as New Feminism. The exhibition features video, performance works and art activism that address the feminist position in action and redefine the notion of \u201cpolitical\u201d within the new millennium\u2019s paradigm of uncertainty and precarity.<\/p>\n
