*KLASSENSPRACHEN/CLASS LANGUAGES at District*
July 20, 21, 22
Malzfabrik
Bessemerstraße 2-14
12103 Berlin
“The sign is the arena of C.”
“As a ‘struggle of form,‘ C. is not only concerned with
political forms […].
The struggles of form are struggles for meaning; they imbue
culture and language with active resistance.”
In dictionary entries, their initials represent terms after
their first mention.
Class, class struggle, class contradiction, as well as crisis,
catastrophe, and colonialism turn into C. Our C. stands for
Class Languages.
Given the inextricable crisis of legitimacy of global capitalism
and the rise of right-wing populisms, we witness a return to the
repressed relation of Class—a return that is enacted in many
tongues.
In contemporary art, the purposeful alienation, appropriation,
and misappropriation of language from professionalized truisms,
stylistic forms, academic constraints, popular patterns,
political resentments, and economic circumstances, plays an
increasingly important role. In print media as well as
text-based works in social media, in performed texts, refrains,
and forms of public address and narration, languages emerge that
deny instantaneous consumption and communication and wrest
different kinds of filters from reality.
With CLASS LANGUAGES, we want to bring together a panorama of
these filters – an assembly of forms of possible ‘ways out’, as
Gilles Deleuze und Félix Guattari phrased it with Franz Kafka:
“A line of escape, and not freedom. A vital escape and not an
attack.” We want to take the increasingly differentiated
language practices of contemporary art—in Berlin and beyond—as a
starting point and search for class languages that delineate
‘ways out’, where attacks all too often defer to the syntax of
what is attacked. This also calls for the acknowledgement of our
own practice as a problem and the need of its reorganization.
Because the notion of class does not only bear hope for a
communal form of living but also the possibility of social
alienation: Class is both problem and solution. Or, put
differently, we are part of the problem whose solution we desire.
With the three threads of the project—exhibition, magazine, and
debate—we seek to examine how the assertion of CLASS LANGUAGES
can be made productive in the context of contemporary art: how
can the goals and desires of authors and addressees be shared,
how can professionalized forms of writing about art be
reconfigured, how can an assembly of escape figurations bring
forth provisory forms of living? We want to examine the classes
that speak from within us—nostalgic, contemporary, and future
ones, exclusive or inclusive ones—and which lines of flight they
indicate.
KLASSENSPRACHEN at District is supported by
Hauptstadtkulturfonds Berlin.
