The exhibition and publication project Hubert Fichte: Love and Ethnology explores the possibilities and limits of using self-reflection and gay sexuality as research tools to restitute the ethnological observations and feelings on Afro-diasporic cultures of a German writer. The project is based on Hubert Fichte's cycle of novels Die Geschichte der Empfindlichkeit, which reflects his fascination with Afro-diasporic arts and religions. The final exhibition Love and Ethnology The Colonial Dialectic of Sensitivity (after Hubert Fichte) at Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin presents these reflections against the background of the relationship between ethnology and the aesthetic avant-garde in post-war West Germany.
Ahead of their two day residency at London’s Cafe Oto, Julius Eastman Project shares exclusive footage of their debut performance from October 2021 at Cologne's Week-End festival. The festival opened with a live performance of Julius Eastman’s Stay On It, which was tackled by the newly formed eight-piece ensemble called Julius Eastman Project. The festival also released a limited edition vinyl album of the original recording of Stay On It. The Julius Eastman Project will perform other compositions by Eastman during their residency at Cafe Oto in June.
