Today, we would like to give you another residents’ update: In co-production with the Indigenous Media Collective Ñambi Rimai, our resident Felipe Castelblanco @felipecastel is currently working on a project that unfolds as a counter-expedition across ancestral territories in the southwest of Colombia, between the Andes and the lower Amazon.

For centruries, this region has been the epicenter of ecological violence, genocide, extraction and dispossetion despite its important role in the stability of the entire Amazon ecosystem. However, in recent decades new forms of indigenous resistance, self-representation and efforts for bio-cultural peace building have reemerged creating newcross-regional alliances.

Ñambi Rimai is a newly established Indigenous Media Collective operating in the Pan Amazon region, between the high Andes and the lower Amazon. This initiative emerged after a series of workshops and field work conducted by Felipe Castelblanco in 2018/19 while working in close cooperation with the central government of the Inga Nation and Ambulante Colombia.

Our resident from Los Angeles, Tracy Jeanne Rosenthal, makes voter guides for local and national elections. Her idiosyncratic, well-researched endorsements prioritize de-funding and de-fanging police, resurrecting public options for housing, and a maximum wage, using the principle of the lesser of Two Evils.
L.A. people can vote until March 3!

This week, our artistic director Tirdad Zolghadr is giving an introduction to curatorial practice in contemporary art to social anthropology students of the University of Bern. By using his professional itinerary as a case study, Tirdad Zolghadr is focusing particularly on his ongoing program REALTY which is invested in artistic and curatorial strategies that proactively tackle art’s complicity with gentrification. The winter school takes place at the Media Lab at the Bern University of the Arts HKB this week.

For the next couple of months, we will be posting more updates on our Residents 2019/20. If you are in Bern tonight, don't miss the "Polsima launch" by our local resident Olivia Abächerli! It takes place at 7 p.m. @sattel.kammer

Polsima, the political simulator machine, is a highly complex device that can calculate and visually simulate all the future consequences of any political decision. The algorithm is shaped by scientists from all possible disciplines and promises to end political speculations, so finally politics can not fail any more.

Key visual and making of for the Sommerakademie im Zentrum Paul Klee, curated by Pipilotti Rist — 2011

Between 2009 and 2016 we were responsible for the visual identity of the Sommerakademie in collaboration with the curators Tirdad Zolghadr, Jan Verwoert, Pipilotti Rist, Marta Kuzma, Sue Williamson, Raimundas Malašauskas, Hassan Khan and Thomas Hirschhorn.

The Sommerakademie im Zentrum Paul Klee in Bern was a private institution founded by the Cantonal Bank of Berne BEKB│BCBE in the year 2005. It was reestablished in 2017, with a new concept, new donors and under the new name @sommerakademiepaulklee

This autumn in Bern, we would like to introduce ‚Autumn Leaf‘, a new teaching format of the Bern University of the Arts HKB! It offers teaching opportunities to all nine residents of the Sommerakademie Paul Klee this December. Starting Monday, they will be giving two-day workshops to students of the HKB, to test and develop educational experiments which may form the basis of collective efforts in the near future.
