Musical ProgrammeDavid Bermudez: Modern Piano Flamenco David Bermudez, born in Barcelona, comes from a family of flamenco artists. Therefore, he made his first steps in flamenco art at an early age. He started to accompany different guitarists and flamenco dance troupes as a percussionist until he discovered his true calling as a pianist. Various artists of the genre of Catalan rumba and flamenco pop taught him the art of playing the flamenco piano. Since then, he has been sharing the stage with great artists from different countries, has been working for the Argentine production company RGB (2011) as a musical director, and has been involved in the production of many music albums for various artists. Currently, he is working with several dance groups, among them the Compañia Maria Serrano. He uses his experience in Latin American music to work at the side of the renowned singer Luis Frank of the group Buena Vista Social Club. |

ARTE Film Night |
|
|
Presentation of documentaries in cooperation with ARTE and ZKM | Karlsruhe The ‘in-between society’ is bound to traditions and at the same time has arrived in the modern era. Traditional values, local everyday routines, and worldwide accepted social norms are put to the test. The resulting tensions raise the question what it is that really holds our societies together. The ARTE film night is dedicated to some aspects of this ‘in-between society’: Emancipated? “Afghanische Frauen am Steuer” compete with the men in the streets of Kabul. The driving license as one step on the way to emancipation: The documentary accompanies four women at this step. Revolutionary? In the middle of Europe: concerts, dance and good-humor websites advertise for a youth movement which promotes the strictest understanding of the Bible. Behind the pleasant façade rules military discipline: “Missionare im Gleichschritt – Die Jesus Revolution Army”. Traditionally? Women in Koniaków crochet colourful patterned thongs: “Sündige Maschen made in Polen”. The lingerie secure the survival in the remote Polish mountain region – and plunge the village in deep disputes over the improper craftwork. Modern? Is it possible to be modern, a music lover, and a good Muslim at the same time? The music channel 4Shbab says yes. “Pop Islam” takes a look at the societies of the Arab world, which are torn between modern and traditional values. Stressed? “Speed – Auf der Suche nach der verlorenen Zeit” asks what happened to all of the time which we have painstakingly saved with new technologies and efficiency models. A film about the speed-up of life and its alternatives. |

José F.A. Oliver: Mein andalusisches Schwarzwalddorf In 1960, José F.A. Oliver’s parents came from Málaga to Germany looking for work. He grew up in Hausach, being an Andalusian and Alemannian at the same time. Memories of the father, the straw hat factory, the Hausacher Spättlemadlee, the carnival tradition of childhood are condensed in José F.A. Oliver’s essay with poetic sensitivity to images of a place that cannot be, yet is still there, an Andalusian Black Forest. His book is not only the image of a poet between cultures and languages; it is also a declaration of love to his town. No Entrance Fee The Reading is in German |

Kinder der Revolution Scenic reading and discussion, directed by Nuran David Calis Guest performance of the Schauspielhaus Bochum in collaboration with the Folkwang University of the Arts, and in cooperation with Badisches Staatstheater Karlsruhe Almost everywhere, the protest in the Arab world emanated from the young: mostly as a spontaneous merger of many dissatisfied people, who create a loud crowd out of many voiceless individuals. In Europe, complaints of a young generation are also growing. Is a revolt of the young, albeit under different circumstances, emerging here, too? With a class of drama students, the author and director Nuran David Calis examines what it means today to belong to the young generation in Germany and Europe, and how this generation connects itself with the rest of the world. Together, they establish contact all over the world, looking for common issues and the conflicts of their generation, to which they lend their voices. |
