DISCUSSION 5 October 2010 @ Motto
Critical Imagination Against State Control
17:00 Ida Börjel and Andrzej Tichý “Citizens without Boundaries”
18.00 Perihan Mağden
As part of the the multi-venue and platform exhibition program correct me if i’m critical the discussion event “Critical imagination against state control” is based on the idea of imagines Motto, the bookstore as a place for imagination. Being composed of two reading sessions, and inviting two different practices, it aims to open a discussion about how state control and political representations are controlling public imagination, and how critical imagination is possible today in terms of activism and literature.
What is the role of literature, political fiction, and activism today in order to create a collectively conscious memory against mainstream culture and uniformity?
Adnan Yıldız will moderate the session after updating the audience with the coming publication of “correct me if i’m critical” as well as introducing the web project from Florian Zeyfang (www.florian-zeyfang.de).

Transfer Drawings. Mechanical reproduction of another kind. Markus Uhr.
Text (English/German): Madeleine Schuppli.
Published by Kodoji Press. 250 copies.
“As source material Markus Uhr uses fragments of images and texts taken from the American as well as the German press. He cuts out individual motifs from the papers to assemble an archive of photographic ans typographic clippings, extracting all manner of themes from the cleary structured system of every newspaper: logos, headlines, reportage photographs. Once removed from their original function within the newsprint medium, these extracts mutate into free-floating, unrelated particles inside Markus Uhr’s pool of images.
