ViennaSchoolOFF Mentoring - Summer Edition
2nd-4th of August 2020 at TOZOMIA Art Space
This is a CALL for a three days practice-based gathering by and for freelance artists interested in the Viennese dance and performance scene.
The recent lockdown has forced us to look again at where we (literally and not) stand as artists, to re-think how we use our resources, how we defend the value of our work and how it is financially sustainable. We feel it is now more than ever an important moment to gather collectively.
The motivation for the “ViennaSchoolOFF Mentoring - Summer Edition” stems from a shared interest in the possibilities and understandings of what Mentoring is/ has been/ can be. It also comes from the urgent desire of creating a wayward place for exchange and knowledge production in the field of Performing Arts, Artistic Research, Dance and Choreography in Austria. We intend to propose encounters to give attention to each other, to understand further each other’s artistic work and practice, to strengthen a sense of community, encounters of generations, times and history.
The three days of “ViennaSchoolOFF Mentoring - Summer Edition“ invites us to both give and receive.
We will propose an overall schedule to facilitate small group encounters as well as 1on1 “blind dates” in a joyous counter-intuitive fashion: we will throw the dice, match-make in analogue breakout-rooms, randomise our meetings. The 3-days build on the ViennaSchoolOFF strategy of “doing the thing while also talking, thinking and reflecting about it.”
“VSOFF Mentoring - Summer Edition” is open for anyone who wishes to gather, to exchange around the afore-mentioned topics, to be here now! And for a future! Possibly together!
Please register by stating your interest to participate by sending an email to wp.trainingeducation@gmail.com by the 26th of July 2020.

The Wiener Perspektive Training & Education group invites to an online conversation and test-run on the topic of „Mentoring“.
12th May 17-18.30
13th May 17-18.30
For access to the zoom-link please write to training@tqw.at stating your date of choice.
Registration for both days possible but not necessary.
Mentoring is a subtle relationship, neither formal teacher-student-relationship nor feedback nor therapy nor friendship between peers, yet close to all those relationships and transgressed by them.
Together we would like to exchange on how we can use the current deceleration for dialogue in the dance & performance scene, with the possibility to bridge it to the Wiener Perspektive TQW-event in October/November this autumn: Vienna School OFF 8+1 (originally scheduled April 2020).
We're looking forward to talking and listening to you next week!

We will cheerfully take part in the opening of Albertina Modern and Künstlerhaus in the beginning of March 2020. See you there! Join in! Teams work!
ACT ON KÜNSTLERHAUS! Next Open Meeting: Wednesday, 19th of February, 18:00, Kitchen (Schwarzhorngasse 1 / Ecke: Bacherplatz, 1050)
Artists of Vienna’s independent art scene are happy to announce that “Theater im Künstlerhaus” is now squatted.
OTS - Vienna. As of today, Tuesday February 4, 2020, 6:30 a.m., the theater in the Künstlerhaus (French Hall) at Karlsplatz 5 has been occupied by artists from the Viennese independent scene.
This activist-artistic act is a reaction to the inactivity and indecisiveness of the culture bureaucracy in supporting the preservation of this unique, multifunctional and interdisciplinary house for experimental performing arts in the center of the city.
The theater is part of the Künstlerhaus, which was built by artists for artists and opened in 1868. This place has been a historical place for the self-organization of artists for 160 years and should remain so.
At the Vienna Perspective press conference on November 12, 2019 and the subsequent open letter, the demands were communicated publicly and supported by many artists and advocates of the independent scene.
In order to express the urgency of a self-administered “New House of Performative Arts”, we now keep the room occupied until it is legally and financially secured for the independent scene. We want to reopen and perform in the theater in the Künstlerhaus as soon as possible!
Dear Mr. Hans-Peter Haselsteiner, Dear Representatives of Künstlerhausbesitz und Betriebs GmbH, Dear City Councilor Veronica Kaup-Hasler, Dear State Secretary Ulrike Lunacek, we would like to urge you to enter into a dialogue with us in order to find a solution for the future of the theater in the Künstlerhaus.
OPEN LETTER
ACT ON KÜNSTLERHAUS
We, members of the independent scene of Vienna, independent artists and cultural workers, demand the return of the independent scene into the Theatre im Künstlerhaus!
The Theater im Künstlerhaus has existed under various names since the 1970s and is the only existing multifunctional, multi-perspective and interdisciplinary house for experimental performing arts of a relevant size and in a central location. The theatre is part of the Künstlerhaus, which was built by artists for artists and opened in 1868. For 160 years this place has been a historical place for the self-organization of artists and should continue to be!
We must learn from history for the future. We will not give up this place as our artistic center, we will not let our art be marginalized and driven to the edges of this city!
We ask the City of Vienna to make sure that the Künstlerhaus stays a place of interdisciplinary and independent artistic activities.
Please sign this Open Letter to the City of Vienna and the political decision-makers to preserve the Theater im Künstlerhaus for the independent scene and not to leave it unconditionally to the interests of investors.
