FIFTITU% Strategy 2022 - 2023
FIFTITU% has been a feminist organization committed to the visibility and promotion of women* in art and culture since 1998. The networking and advice center works continuously to implement better conditions for women* in the arts and culture sector. As the only platform of its kind in Austria, FIFTITU% offers not only cultural and women's political work, but also concrete advice and support for professionalization. In this way, FIFTITU% supports women* and queers* in the arts and culture scene to assert themselves and strengthen their position.
Schreiben als kreatives Werkzeug
2-part online workshop with Lisa-Viktoria Niederberger
Writing as a creative tool for all artists
Fri, January 20, 2023, 11:00 - 13:00, Online (via ZOOM)
Fri, January 27, 2023, 11:00 - 13:30, Online (via ZOOM)
We all know it: the fear of the white page. Or the shame when you have to summarize the most important topics of your own project in just a few words. Writing can sometimes be very difficult. Methods from freewriting, intuitive writing, can help us develop a relaxed approach to writing and discover it as an important resource for our artistic work and our empowerment. We create a monster gallery, boost our creative self-confidence and celebrate our handwriting. In the workshop, theoretical blocks alternate with writing exercises, which will be discussed afterwards. Don't worry: this has nothing to do with German exercises. Nobody has to read aloud. We will make use of writing and learn how it can help us to find ideas and overcome artistic blocks. We try things out and write exclusively for ourselves.
