My Choice of Work, my Resistence (5 December 2024 - 30 April, 2025)
curated by Shimpei Takeda for Antimonument Extended at Wild Palm Gallery and on public space, Duesseldorf

"My Choice of Work my Resistence" is a project by CRAFT aims to question the presence of Monuments from the Nazi era in public space, looking to fill the gaps of unrealized monuments to women resistance fighters. The performance and action on the square was accompanied by the spatial intervention by Alejandra Baltazares and the sound installation by Navid Razavi, based on the sound of the resonating body of the sculpture “Bergischer Loewe”. In recent years, there has been a growing demand for an active engagement with unwanted monuments in public spaces. The “Antimonument Extended” event in Duesseldorf addresses this desire and invited various artists and cultural practitioners to show and experience their positions in public spaces as well as in the Wild Palms gallery. The project is organized by Antimonument e.V., a non-profit organization based in Duesseldorf, which was founded in 2017 on the basis of Shinpei Takeda’s “Antimonument Manifesto” and sees itself as a platform for projects at the interface of art, memory and technology. Clothing collection and performance by CRAFT, sound by Navid Razavi, text by Ursula Probst.
