program for Saturday the 23rd of September:

17h - 18h30: Shape-shifting with Tabea (Reading group)
A reading group facilitated by other women’s flowers on shape-shifting, performativity, and failure. Let’s read some texts about acting out and dressing up. You are welcome to bring a book/poem/lyrics/essay that you feel relates to these topics and choose a quote you’d like to share. If interested please sign up at sexykesservater@gmail.com

18h30: Official Opening with Sauerkraut and Sausages
Come by to visit our fan installation in homage to Tabea and let’s have a drink, a chat and eat sauerkraut and sausages (veggie options will be available!) together.

20h: Opening words 
Introduction to Sexy KV, the film Bildnis Einer Trinkerin and the life and work of Tabea Blumenschein. 

20h30 : Film Screening of Bildnis Einer Trinkerin (Ulrike Ottinger, 1979) 
An American passenger plane lands on the snowy tarmac of Berlin-Tegel. A voice-over reports matter-of-factly how an Italian countess has descended on the German capital with only one goal in mind: to drink until she drops. We follow the countess (Tabea Blumenschein) on her drinking adventures through a surreal Berlin, messing with the strange categories an even stranger society sometimes imposes upon us.
