Gegen >< Family  






Fr. 4th of March | Kit Kat Club







FAST TRACK / SPEEDY BOARDING / PRIORITY

To avoid long waiting times and queuing at the door, we would like to ask you for some cooperation in order to let you access the club quicker and let us work fast
The cloakroom demands most of the time – this is why it would be fantastic if you could help us

1. The Wardorbe is Free. Please hang up your clothes by yourself. You will find coat-hangers in big clothes baskets on the LEFT SIDE, right after the entrance door.

2. You MUST leave your jacket/ overcoat in the cloakroom. Preferably also hand in your sweater/ pullover – the club is very well heated!

3. Hang up your sweater/ pullover on a coat-hanger and put your jacket/ overcoat over it. Please DO NOT CRAM anything into the sleeves!

4. Please store your valuables safely and make sure you close all pockets on your garments well. Please also zip, button, etc. your jacket/ overcoat on the hanger, so it won't fall off it.

5. Bags and similar items will be handled separately. You will receive an extra ticket for each item.

6. You can pick up something from your clothes and/ or bags at any time! The attended cloakroom is for free!


︎ Concept






Step One
Think about family in terms of emotionality where to contextualize partnering, parenting and friendship.

Step Two
Trash the misery of religious universalisms imposing an eterocentric power model of “natural” reproduction.

Step Three
Open yourself to multiplicity, body languages, the building of new uncodified proximities and crossings by mining in the same time social norms and network representations.

Step Four
Extend it to a polyamorous and nomadic space, appearing on a certain rhythm of time – say every two months – and focussing on queer subjectivities performing open styles of being through different languages.

Step Five
Now think about Gegen as an open fabric whose polyamorous and pandrogynous knots become a transnational open scene.

Step Six
Now re-think family and feel the spasm to dance while rubbing silk and synthetic fur.

Paso Doble
Your brain and body are now being invested by the GEGEN FAMILY in which every subject constitutes an open, mutating, cut-up of the whole as knowing, loving, partnering, parenting and viceversa. It’s a molecular texture of familiar asteroids which appears and disappears clashing different and equal loves, different and equal sexualities, different and equal ends, bringing different and equal beginnings, feeding and growing a new becoming, a stinging love of life, ultraviolet lens, multiple hugging, the never ending melody of inference. D.N.A. is a lie or the dawn of a smiling monster whos heart is beating with our whole desire. It’s space. It’s time. It’s body. It’s us.
It’s a FAMILY GEGEN.
It’s GEGEN FAMILY.
