This spring, E-WERK Luckenwalde will convene The Drop Out: Tell Them I Said No, a major international programme of performances, conversations and workshops reflecting on the power, politics and potential of saying ‘no’.
About
On Friday 3 and Saturday 4 May 2024, E-WERK will present a weekend of day and night time events. Inspired by author and art critic Martin Herbert's collection of essays Tell Them I Said No (2016, Sternberg Press), the programme will consider the implications of resistance, what radical models of self-sufficiency look like, the political connotations of counterculture (or cancel culture), who has the privilege to say no, and artistic vulnerability. The event will take place across E-WERK’s 25,000 metre square site, including the historic Turbine Hall, the adjacent Bauhaus Stadtbad and E-WERK’s outdoor geodesic dome, and will include concerts, performances, panel discussions, karaoke and sauna sessions.
A global list of artists, thinkers, performers, and cultural commentators who will contribute include Lamis Ammar, Sascia Bailer, Mirthe Berentsen, Candice Breitz, Eglė Budvytytė, JJJJJerome Ellis, Hettie Judah, Prem Krishnamurthy, Zoe Claire Miller, Eve Stainton & Florence Peake, Nástio Mosquito, Asad Raza, Lauryn Youden, Abbas Zahedi, SERAFINE1369, Pussy Riot, Fatoş Üstek and Melanie Jame Wolf. Many of the contributors will be sharing their work in Brandenburg for the first time.
