Anja Lückenkemper is invited to talk about her curatorial practice and experiences in institutional as well as non-institutional contexts. Her research is focusing on an analysis of the present in its historical and global embedding, with a special interest in the construction of knowledge – in particular, the conditions and ideological entrapments under which knowledge production takes place. She is interested in questions concerning solidarity, as well as labor and labor conditions, here with a focus on feminism and gender, and in the (artistic) construction of identity. Through a selection of projects, Anja will give an introduction into her work and reflect on issues and challenges along the way.
