Habibi Kiosk in Venedig

Wash your Art. Wash your City. A performative walk through the city by EXTRAGARBO

Wash your Art. Wash your City. é la prima apertura del work-in-progress di una mostra itinerante di arte urbana a Venezia. I visitatori potranno camminare con una guida di Extragarbo all’interno del Sestiere di Castello trasformato in un grande cantiere di idee e creatività. 
Il progetto curatoriale – che inaugurerà nel prossimo futuro – raccoglie i contributi di alcuni dei più importanti artisti internazionali del momento, invitati a riflettere su particolari edifici, monumenti o elementi urbani effimeri per costruire nuovi mondi complessi in cui anche il più semplice dei veneziani possa rispecchiarsi e cambiare il proprio punto di vista sulla città.

Dalle 19 dalle 22, ogni 20 minuti. Habibi Kiosk Venezia, Castello 5847.

Wash your Art. Wash your City. is the first step in work-in-progress of the walking exhibition of urban art with the same title in Venice. Visitors will walk with one guide of Extragarbo through the district of Castello, transformed into a large construction site of ideas and creativity. 
The curatorial project - which will inaugurate in the near future - gathers the contributions of some of the most important international artists of the present day. They were invited to reflect on particular buildings, monuments and ephemeral urban elements in order to build new complex worlds in which also the common Venetians can find themselves in and change their point of view on their city.

From 7pm till 10pm, every 20 minutes. Habibi Kiosk Venice, Castello 5847.

What is the City? A research about the city and the people of Venice

What is the city of Venice like? Who owns the city? Who are its people: 60.000 Venetians vs. 13 billion Tourists a year? What moves the people living in a place like no other?
With photographer Andrea Vagnoni we’ll dive into the vibe of the city trying to extract a perspective.

In the heart of Sestiere Castello, where the Kiosk is temporarily located, people are being photographed and interviewed. The result is visual archive built up during the week. It consists of questions leading to answers and answers leading to more questions.

Habibi Goethe: The transnational dimension of right-wing extremism

A performative-international discussion series by and with the Goethe-Institute. This year’s Architecture Biennale and the Performing Architecture program series of the Goethe-Institut in Venice provide an opportunity to explore an architectural and socially critical theme. Between Venice and Munich, a conversation is emerging that is dedicated to transnational right-wing spaces and networks. Between the two cities, a space for encounters is to be created in which one not only positions oneself critically vis-à-vis right-wing extremism and right-wing terror, but also illuminates the mechanisms and modes of action and reflects on possible implications and dangers.

JISR // Brücke

JISR means bridge in Arabic. Rooted in several musical genres, this unconventionally orchestrated musical project builds bridges between Arabian, African Gnawa, Jazz, Rock and classical music and takes the path of maximum musical variation and improvisation. The outcome is a homogeneous mix of cultures for sensitive ears.

Their current album TOO FAR AWAY, JISR // BRÜCKE is an ethnographic snapshot of the multicultural music scene, which breaks the boundaries between different musical genres and fills the maximum of musical imagination, unconventionally instrumented and with a great longing for strange sound worlds. JISR // BRÜCKE are hailing from Munich, Germany. In support of the show Habibi Kiosk’s own DJ Booty Carrell will present vinyl records for those disenfranchised by nightlife.

Mohcine Ramdan: Percussion, Gembri, Vocals
Roman Bunka: Oud, Guitar
Vlad Cojocaru: Accordion
Gergely Lukacs: Trumpet
