gender * d * rama
Having their 5th anniversary the Gender Studies have chosen gender * d * rama as this year’s motto.
It is taking place on saturday, october the 18th 2008 from 12 a.m. on at Statthaus Böcklerpark in Kreuzberg.
A wide range of workshops will be offered, mostly concerning current controversies within the Gender Studies, but also (short-) movies and a platform discussion dealing with the topic "What are Gender Studies?".
For the first time the "Lange Nacht" will include an exhibition, where artists will be showing their works, dealing with the gender category.
The programm will be rounded off with performances and bands. Followed by party.

Preview of "WORKING ON IT", CH/D 2008, 50 min
A film by Karin Michalski and Sabina Baumann
conversations - performances - queer electronics
15 Darsteller_innen sprechen über ihre Beobachtungen im Alltag und deren teils aufwändige Bearbeitung: Was heißt es, in öffentliche Bilder von Sexualität und Weiß-Sein einzugreifen, eine neue Sprache für mehr als zwei Geschlechter zu erfinden oder am Arbeitsplatz Abwertungen sexueller Identität zu wenden? Ein Jahr später treffen sich alle Beteiligten in einem ehemaligen Supermarkt in Berlin, den sie mit thematischen Settings ausstatten und als Treffpunkt einrichten. Die Interviews werden im Raum projeziert und sind Anlaß für Diskussionen, Performances und weitere kulturelle Produktionen.
The protagonists: Artists, theorists, activists and musicians.
The venue: The market place of a supermarket.
Supported by: Heidi Mortenson, Rhythm King and her friends, Lesbians on Ecstasy, Scream Club
