Inzwischen werden europaweit immer wieder neue Dependancen von Bildwechsel eröffnet, unlängst gingen die blogs der bildwechsel_bases in Berlin, Glasgow und Warschau online. Hier der einleitende Text von der Berliner Seite:
about
Bildwechsel Berlin is part of the international project Bildwechsel. It is a selforganised, collective and non- profit coherence of agents.
Bildwechsel is a an umbrella organisation for women+ in media, culture and art. Based in Hamburg Bildwechsel acts as a platform and as an infrastructure which women+ can tap into to support and develop their own work / projects / ideas, to find out about the work of others, make connections, develop new initiatives and build up archival collections that represent their work and that of other women+.
Bildwechsel aims to present a panoramic view of the work of women+ artists, especially of those working over the last 25 years. We have ’agents’ in various cities in the world collecting materials for the archives, reporting on what they see, making connections, publicising the work of Bildwechsel, and organising joint projects. The archives aim to be international in scope and dynamic in their content and the work of the agents is important in this respect. Building on these connections with other artists and projects we often travel to other cities with the Archive Bus, putting on events, screenings, collecting materials for the archive.
Bildwechsel is holding different archives (for example over 7.000 videos and films are archived at the video collection.) and offers space, presentations and a forum in general for women+/media/culture for videos, films, fanzines, catalogues, music…. Bildwechsel has ‘homes’ in Glasgow, Basel, Hamburg, Nürnberg, Berlin, Warsaw…
‘Bildwechsel Berlin’ decided to use the term women+ to acknowledge Bildwechsel’s history as a women’s project on the one hand and its inclusiveness towards trans*, intersexuals and queer men on the other.
All women, trans* and intersexuals, queers are welcome at Bildwechsel. Men, who are supportive of women’s/feminist/queer communities are also welcome.
