NO OTHER LAND

Movie screening and panel talks with One State Embassy.

Saturday 26.April // 7pm // Location: TBA [but will be at Akbild] // Tickets: Free donation

The best and most important documentary of the year – multiple award-winning, including the European Film Award.

This film made by a Palestinian-Israeli collective shows the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers and the alliance which develops between the Palestinian activist Basel and Israeli journalist Yuval.

On March 24, 2025, Hamdan Ballal, the palestinian co-director, was attacked by far-right settlers in his home village of Susya. Instead of receiving medical aid, he got arrested by the israeli military and realeased after international pressure a day later.

Movie screening and talks afterwards

Tuesday 29.April // 8pm // Mehrzwecksaal, Lehárgasse 8, 1060 Vienna // Tickets: Free donation

We will stream the movies "Seabird - The civil eye" and "Enfin j'ai quitté! - Und schließlich bin ich abgehaut!" and have a talk with Jakob Frühmann from Sea-Watch sociologist Niki Kubaczek and activist Ertuğrul Bayraktar.

🎞️ Movie descriptions:

- Sea Bird - The civil eye [20min.]
[German with English subtitles]

The central Mediterranean: a place where anger, sadness and relief are so close together. A place where we have to watch human rights being systematically broken. This is exactly where Sea-Watch, together with the Swiss NGO “Humanitarian Pilots Initiative” (HPI), has been flying since 2017 to document human rights violations by the so-called Libyan Coast Guard. The film “Seabird – The Civilian Eye” makes it clear that the EU must end the cooperation with the so-called Libyan coast guard and should instead stand up for safe escape routes for all people seeking protection.

- Enfin j'ai quitté! - Und schließlich bin ich abgehaut! [25min.]
[Arabic, French with German subtitles]

Der Kurzfilm ‚Und schließlich bin ich abgehauen!‘ durchbricht diese Repräsentationen. Der im Rahmen eines Wiener Politkunstfestivals von Yassine Zaaitar und Anderen erarbeitete Film lässt uns ihre Stimmen vernehmen: Sie erzählen von den täglichen Polizeischikanen, denen Harraga ausgesetzt sind, vom Leben auf der Flucht vor den eigenen Fingerabdrücken und vom ungebrochenen Wunsch nach einem Leben in Freiheit. Konsequent bleiben im Film die Sprechenden unsichtbar. Die Montage trennt Gesichter und Stimmen und wird zu einem kollektiven Porträt einer Bewegung im Raum, die sich dem Grenzregime Europas entziehen will.

Perhaps you could share my post in your Inst story, that would be a great help for me & thank you and best wishes, Julia"

Rektorat unterbindet FPÖ-kritischen Studierendenp

Rektorat unterbindet FPÖ-kritischen Studierendenprotest

Im Zuge einer von Studierenden der Akademie der bildenden Künste Wien organisierten Kundgebung gegen die laufenden Koalitionsverhandlungen wurde am 16.1.2025 ein "STOPP FPÖVP"-Banner an der Fassade des Hauptgebäudes angebracht. Das Rektorat hatte den Studierenden zuvor zugesichert, dieses für die Dauer des Rundgangs zu dulden.

Entgegen dieser Zusage wurde das Banner - trotz Vermittlungsversuchen der Hochschüler*innenschaft - noch am selben Tag entfernt. Auf Nachfrage entschuldigte sich das Rektorat und erklärte: „Es habe sich um ein Missverständnis gehandelt.“ Kurz nach der erneuten Anbringung wurde das Banner abermals vom Rektorat entfernt und einbehalten und das Wiederaufhängen mit Verweis auf Sicherheitsbedenken untersagt.

Ein unaufrichtiges und autoritär agierendes Rektorat kann von den Studierenden nicht akzeptiert werden!

----///english///----

Rectorate prevents FPÖ-critical student protest

During a rally organized by students of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna against the ongoing coalition negotiations, a "STOP FPÖVP" banner was put up on the facade of the main building on January 16, 2025. The Rectorate had previously assured the students that it would tolerate this for the duration of the tour.
Contrary to this promise, the banner was removed on the same day - despite attempts by the student body to mediate. When asked, the Rectorate apologized and explained: "It was a misunderstanding." Shortly after it was put up again, the banner was again removed and retained by the Rectorate and it was forbidden to hang it up again, citing safety concerns.

An insincere and authoritarian Rectorate cannot be accepted by the students!

So wird unsere Akademie die nächsten Tage währen

Resistance against the Threats to Cultural and Social Freedom!

Bring your art to the streets!

As a student body of the academy of fine arts, we are moving this years Rundgang Opening to the streets

This rally is not only a demonstration against the policies of FPÖ/ÖVP but also a call for collective resistance and the preservation of freedom in art and science.

The Prospect of an FPÖ/ÖVP lead Government poses a significant Threat to the freedom of Art

These threats range from massive budget cuts to direct attempts at censorship.

These attempts to curtail artistic freedom pose a threat not only to the art scene but to society as a whole, which relies on art as a tool for critical thinking and resistance.

The government is deliberately targeting the weakening of universities by cutting research funding, removing social science projects, and undermining academic freedom.

However, the political measures of the FPÖ and ÖVP do not only affect art and culture. Their policies also lead to massive restrictions on social rights, deportations, and the division of minorities and migrants.

We must show that art, culture and universities cannot suffer under the rule of the far - right parties

[German below]

OPEN MEETING TOMORROW - ALL STUDENTS ARE INVITED!

Open, spontaneous meeting of all students at the academy to plan the opening of Rundgang - due to the current political situation in Austria.

All students at the academy are invited, come in large numbers, we need everyone!

Friday 10.01
5:00 p.m.
Schillerplatz, Sitzungssaal, EG

An FPÖ-led government with Kickl as chancellor is a danger to all of us.
We, the students at the academy, cannot simply hold the Rundgang as usual. The political situation demands that we stand up and send a strong signal.

Therefore, we would like to organize the Rundgang differently. To do this, we need the support and solidarity of all students who stand for anti-fascism.

See you tomorrow!

OPEN MEETING TOMORROW - ALL STUDENTS ARE INVITED!

Offenes, spontanes Planungstreffen aller Studierenden der Akademie zur Eröffnung des Rundgangs - aufgrund der aktuellen politischen Lage in Österreich.

Eingeladen sind alle Studierenden der Akademie, kommt zahlreich, wir brauchen Unterstützung!

Freitag 10.01
17:00 Uhr
Schillerplatz, Sitzungssaal, EG

Eine FPÖ geführte Regierung mit Kickl als Kanzler ist eine Gefahr für uns alle.
Wir, die Studierenden der Akademie, können jetzt nicht einfach wie immer unseren Rundgang abhalten. Die politische Situation verlangt es sich zu erheben und ein starkes Zeichen zu setzen.

Daher möchten wir unseren Rundgang anders gestalten. Dazu brauchen wir die Unterstützung und Solidarität aller Studierenden die für Antifaschismus stehen.

Bis morgen!
