Discussions with international experts
How can artefacts be exhibited without falling into problematic categories like “Europe” and “the Other”? Can we make sense of the distinction between art and ethnology or art and material culture? What stories can objects in museums tell today? How can we revise the established narratives and rethink the role of museums? What are the alternative narratives, traditions and concepts?

Ausstellungsraum für zeitgenössische Kunst und soziale Fragen
Spittastr. 25 – 10317 Berlin
In ihrer gemeinsamen Ausstellung bei after the butcher setzen sich Mathilde ter Heijne und Norbert Witzgall mit Aspekten und Konzepten des Nicht-Sichtbaren auseinander.
Ter Heijne untersucht soziale, kulturelle, politische und ökonomische Hintergründe gender-spezifischer Phänomene innerhalb verschiedener Gesellschaften und Kulturen und deren geschichtliche Entwicklung. In der Ausstellung bei after the butcher zeigt ter Heijne erstmalig Ergebnisse aus ihrer langjährigen Zusammenarbeit mit dem Voodoo-Priester Togbé Hounon Hounougbo Bahousou innerhalb des künstlerischen Kontextes.
Norbert Witzgall malt. Er reflektiert Konventionen von Malerei und Fotografie am Beispiel des Porträts. In seiner neuen Arbeit verwendet er Röntgenaufnahmen von Gemälden. Fotografie – hier als Grundlage der wissenschaftlicher Untersuchung von Malerei – wird erneut transformiert in Malerei.
Witzgall’s Malerei wird in der Ausstellung wiederum zur Projektionsfläche digitaler Bilder ter Heijnes. Bilder, die während einer Reise der Künstlerin nach Togo und Benin mit einer Infrarot- und Aurakamera (mit Hilfe von Daniela Macé Rosiger) entstanden sind. Auf diese Weise überlagern und verbinden sich subjektive, wissenschaftliche, und spekulative Formen der Bildproduktion.

An exhibition by Mathilde ter Heijne in dialogue with Marina Abramovic at Krome Gallery
Opening: Wednesday, November 26, 2014, 6pm
21A, Ave. G. Diderich, L-1420 Luxembourg
Krome Gallery has a new space in Luxembourg, opening with an exhibition by Mathilde ter Heijne in dialogue with Marina Abramovic. “In dialogue with” is a new series of exhibitions initiated by Krome Gallery to explore the affinity between a mid-career artist of the gallery and his/her conceptual reference. For the opening of the gallery’s new location in Luxembourg, Krome Gallery has invited Mathilde ter Heijne whose work is well-known for questioning different forms of performative gender politics. Her installations, video, sculpture and performance pieces have been exhibited in major international institutions such as MOMA PS1, New York; The Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Zurich; and the The Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam. Among the artist’s creative inspirations is Marina Abramovic, a performance artist who began her career in the early 1970s and whose work explores the relationship between performer and audience, the limits of the body, and the possibilities of the mind. The exhibition will feature a selection of works by Mathilde ter Heijne, put in context with a seminal piece by Marina Abramovic. Simultaneously new works by Mathilde ter Heijne will be shown at Krome Gallery Berlin (Potsdamer Straße 98, 10785 Berlin).

DokfestForum: Artist talk with Mathilde ter Heijne
November 13, 2014, 20h
Fridericianum // Friedrichsplatz 18, D-34117 Kassel
DokfestForum: Fridericianum in cooperation with the 31st Kassel Dokfest (11.–16.11.14)
Mathilde ter Heijne works mainly in the media of video, performance, sculpture and installation. In her work, she frequently deals with issues of gender and ritual practices. What will be represented and what not? Who will gain access to the larger process of writing history and who not? And how could these frames of reference and representation be subverted?
Mathilde ter Heijne’s ongoing project Woman to Go (since 2005) consists of a series of postcards showing portraits of anonymous women dating from the beginning of photography to the 1920s. On the message side of the postcards, biographies of other, more prominent women of the time can be read, whose lives evidently and at the same time ambiguously collide with those of the women portrayed in the pictures. The documentation of events that have been insufficiently documented and represented becomes the focal point of the work. Identity is what is at stake here and it only seems to become a freely disposable product – ready “to go”.
The discussion will be conducted by Nina Tabassomi. Free entry.

Solo exhibition “Performing Change” at Museum für Neue Kunst Freiburg
Opening: Friday, November 7, 2014, 7pm
Exhibition: November 8, 2014 – February 22, 2015
Museum für Neue Kunst Freiburg
Marienstraße 10a, 79098 Freiburg, Germany
Mathilde ter Heijne’s art investigates gender-specific phenomena in different cultures. She reflects historic developments and current trends and questions socio-cultural, political and economic connections. What shapes gender identity and how does this, in turn, shape society? What is regarded as normal and how can social structures be changed? By means of artistic transformation, of as well the past and the future, the exhibition explores various possibilities of modifying and dissolving gender roles and associated structures of power. Ter Heijne has produced new works with a pronounced regional reference yet international basis for the Freiburg show: Woman to Go is a continuing series of post cards that links photographs of unknown women with the biographies of well known, but often forgotten women who lived between 1840 and 1920. This association creates scope with which to look at and interpret history anew. The work Experimental Archeology transforms prehistoric finds into a modern-day context. Corporeality and gender are initially made blatantly obvious and ultimately transcended in this work. The work It will be! engages with the roles of Freiburg residents from the most divergent cultural backgrounds and their connection with the handcraft sewing. The work came about in a communal project comprising a total of two hundred sewn individual items. The space created by the project within the exhibition will be utilised and designed during the course of the show by students from the Anthropology and Gender Studies Department of the University of Freiburg. Thus it will become a site for debate, exchange, individual narrative and networking. A monthly programme will provide more detail of respective events. Each of the works has come about in cooperation with the numerous partners of the museum. The aim is to recognise and tap into the potential for change by means of a communal, collective process. An artist’s book will be published to accompany the exhibition.
