Kunstraum Lakeside

Der Kunstraum Lakeside ist ein Ort der Produktion und Präsentation zeitgenössischer internationaler Kunst mit der Programmatik einer kritischen Diskussion gesellschaftsrelevanter Aspekte der Ökonomie. Angesiedelt im Lakeside Science & Technology Park in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft zur Universität Klagenfurt, operiert der Kunstraum im Spannungsfeld wirtschaftlicher, wissenschaftlicher und kulturell

er Forschungen, Praktiken und Diskursformen. Mit der auf Dauer angelegten Einrichtung des Kunstraums wird der öffentliche Charakter des Kunstprogramms gestärkt und die kunstinstitutionelle Landschaft der Region Kärnten um einen einzigartigen Ort der kritischen künstlerisch-theoretischen Auseinandersetzung auf überregionaler Ebene erweitert und bereichert. Ziel des Kunstraums Lakeside ist die Vermittlung und Konfrontation divergenter Perspektiven auf geteilte gesellschaftliche Verhältnisse. Durch Ausstellungen, öffentliche Kunstprojekte, Vorträge, Diskussionen, Filmabende und Publikationen sowie Kooperationen mit universitären und sonstigen Einrichtungen arbeitet der Kunstraum an einer transdisziplinären Auseinandersetzung mit Fragen der Zeit und der Generierung einer entsprechend spartenübergreifenden Öffentlichkeit. Mit der Durchführung eines solchen Programms wird insbesondere jenen Potentialen Rechnung getragen, die sich aus den räumlich verdichteten Beziehungen zwischen Wirtschaft, universitäre Forschung und künstlerischem Feld ergeben.

Tap, tap-tap, tap-tap, tap, tap, tap-tap… Only the unique fusion of stomping, clapping, and singing brings forth the typical rhythms of flamenco. This vocal-dance music, whose roots in southern Europe reach back throughout centuries and have branched out into a whole network of musical subgenres, is performed with instruments such as castanets, tambourines, and guitar. The lyrics often deal with unrequited love, jealousy, grief, and solitude. Feelings of oppression, desperation, animosity, and resilience in the face of adversity infuse many of the songs. Their quavering, impelling sound is owed to the interplay of rhythmic calls and responses. Improvisation plays a key role in this art form that is still celebrated in Andalusia as a folk tradition but in the meanwhile has also found its way into new musical genres and global pop culture. Thanks to the influences of Romani culture, Moorish-Arabic musical traditions, Sephardic Jewish heritage, and Andalusian-Spanish folk music, the historical legacy of cultural diversity thrives in flamenco to this day. It is this analogy between folkloric structures cultivated by humans over the centuries and natural growth processes that environmental scientist and artist Paula Bruna Pérez investigated for her exhibition "Jaleo Forestal" [Forest Fuss] at Kunstraum Lakeside.

Christian Ghazi
Hundred Faces for a Single Day
(1972, 63 min)

Film screening and talk
May 29, 2026, 6 pm

“I don’t care when or how I will die, as long as there are armed men who will continue the march, shaking the earth with their uproar so that the world won’t sleep heavily over the bodies of the laborious, miserable and oppressed men.”

Christian Ghazi’s avant-garde masterpiece Hundred Faces for a Single Day ends with these incendiary words. With this fiction-documentary hybrid film, the Lebanese director and activist forged a fierce critique of bourgeois society in Beirut during the country’s so-called “Golden Age,” which would end in 1975 with the outbreak of civil war. The film is an essay on labor, class, social relations, and resistance. Ghazi considered it his “manifesto on cinema,” a powerful and polemical work that reaches back to the early decades of film experimentation while pioneering radical techniques in multivalent sound, disjunctive montage, and an embedded perspectives on direct action.

Born 1934 in Turkey to a Lebanese father and a French mother, Christian Ghazi grew up in Syria then settled with his family in Lebanon in 1939, where Christian studied, worked, lived, and ultimately witnessed the destruction of his work—the burning of all his films. His first twelve documentaries commissioned by the Ministry of Tourism in 1964 were all banned and burned for being subversive. The filmmaker had an abundant production of 29 films, mostly about the Palestinian resistance but also about the Lebanese war, the misery and refugees. The only remaining work from this time is Hundred Faces for a Single Day.

MUME Museo Mexicano is a -museum founded by Oscar Cueto to provoke new narratives in the entangled web of ever-changing geopolitical circumstances and global migration. Under the name of an institution, Cueto invites international artists to develop collaborative projects in Austria and beyond. The realization and format of each edition of MUME are tailored to the contents of the respective project in order to respond to contemporary challenges from various artistic perspectives and open spaces for discussions on cultural and social norms outside of the confines of the established cultural discourse. Migration, a central theme, is exemplified through collaboration, by listening to and amplifying the voices of often overlooked communities who operate outside of ethnic, social, geographical, economic, or political privilege. By dismantling outdated perceptions and beliefs, redefining the function of institutions and conventional roles of art, abolishing vertical hierarchies, and distancing itself from the prevailing commodification strategies in art, MUME becomes a dynamic space where artistic production can be experienced not only from an aesthetic perspective but also as an expression of political and social responsibility.
