MUME (May 15-28, 2024)
"Multiple Selves"
Elisa Andesnner, Polina Porras and Angel Alado (guest artists)

For this occasion, creator Elisa Andessner (AT), driven by an interest in feminism and gender roles, has invited the artists Polina Porras (MX/RU) and Angel Alado (MX) to develop works on these topics. While concepts such as center-periphery and self-other have aided in understanding postcolonial global political organization, the 17th edition of MUME has chosen to reflect on a world characterized by relative centers, disrupted binaries, mobile diasporas, and "multiple selves" - Argentine philosopher Maria Lugones suggests that this is where the patriarchal/colonial system faces its greatest resistance. Perhaps, in a poetic twist of fate, the future of gender equality and new social organization lies with those who have chosen or have been compelled to embody "multiple selves", challenging traditional notions of sexuality or family, speaking several languages, and inhabiting diverse worlds simultaneously due to forced migrations and exclusions based on gender, ethnicity, or social and geographical conditions. MUME has also invited the maiz - Autonomous Center by and for Migrants - who will present  "In the beginning there was lust and sorrow: Kick-Off maiz 30th Anniversary!" a celebration that acknowledges the struggle for the rights of sex workers as one of the foundations of the collective. This special editon presents a retrospective of the 16 previous issues of the Nomadic Museum through documentation and works from its collection created by Alpine Gothic, Alvaro Verduzco, Andrea Torreblanca, Auslaender, Camila Rhomberg, Carla Rippey, Carlos Palacios, Doris Steinbichler, Enrique Rashide, Frida Robles, Juanjose Rivas, Juan Pablo Macias, Mai Ling, Manuela Picallo Gil, Maria Cerda, Marissa Raygosa, Marko Dinic, Melquiades Herrera and RRD. Opening; May 15, 2024, 7 pm. Midissage: maiz 30th Anniversary!: May 25. 5-9 pm. Atelier Salzamt, Ob. Donaulaende 15, 4020 Linz. Fotos: Violetta Wakolbinger
