Common Ground II - Belonging
The
seminar invites UdK students and international media artists and
filmmakers who experienced migration or flight to engage in a dialogue
about belonging, identity, migration and racism and the role and the
possibilities of art. We want to break inflexible and exclusive debates
creatively and allow change of perspective. Participants are teachers
and students at the same time. Within the semester the participants will
create a new video work and discuss working methods. We will go on
excursions, visit exhibitions and screen films.
Common Ground II is the continuation of the seminar „
Common Ground - Places of community“, in which we concentrated on new
collectives and communities. Participation in the last seminar is no

Support Refugees becomes COMMON GROUND
The search for a substitute for our working title Support Refugees for the AStA-Initiative for connecting and supporting students, refugees and social art projects at UdK finally has come to an end. COMMON GROUND will from now on be the name of our project. It has long been our wish to find a title that reinforces our understanding of a platform that goes beyond a one-sided helping structure. We want to establish a platform that enables the mutual exchange of knowledge and experiences in the university context between students and refugees. We want to promote encounters on equal terms and commmit ourselves to create room and time for this endeavour, to make a lasting impact on society.
Art made by refugees people
You've seen the headlines and heard the political rhetoric, but what do you really know about refugees?
On April 14th, we want to introduce the people behind the statistics. These are people with opinions, experiences and talents that enrich our lives for the better. Among a great variety of skills, we find artists whose artwork will be exhibited and appreciated at Impact Hub Berlin.
The organizer RESTART aims to support refugees in establishing themselves in the art business. People who had to give up everything will find our support in starting over, without having to leave their personality, creativity and previous careers behind. Stay tuned and follow their journey on an online marketplace that truly changes lives.
If you want to celebrate the power of creativity and arts while connecting with people from around the world, we hope you'll join us for this evening and help RESTART.
The event will take place on 04/14/16 @ Impact Hub Berlin.
