Emma Hedditch i YNKB
On July 21st at 7 pm, Emma Hedditch will make a performance/presentation
inside and outside of YNKB.
Emma will show materials that she has collected and is working with
around questions of homosexual identification, from her own work and
from others whose identification is inextricable from a broader social
and political concerns that are affecting this identification. These
materials will include video and film work from the women's film and
video distribution Cinenova, which is based in London. The performance/presentation
will also serve as a marker in the present, which acknowledges the
desire to share knowledge and support with another community, that
of the Copenhagen Queer Festival.

YNKB on Kronborg, Elsinore
YNKB participates in collaboration with the Music House Elværket
from Elsinore and video artist Elisabetta Saiu with the videoinstallation:HOW
DO WE RE-AWAKEN HOLGER DANSKE?Will he listen to us, when no one else
will listen?
This video installation gives new Danes and immigrants living in Elsinore
the opportunity to confront Holger Danske with their hopes and dreams,
disappointments and problems – so he come to their aid.
With his century-long history, Holger Danske is an international symbol
and he lives in many cultures with different languages, traditions
and religions.
He has the same mission everywhere - he is the people’s sleeping
hero.
When problems become too great, the people can try to wake Holger
Danske to new deeds of heroism, this time as the defender of the new
Danes.
Sound and photo installation:Complain Grand Prix
Pictures and hearing the sounds from a Complain Grand Prix held in
the Music House “Elværket” March 28, 2008 in Elsinore
to give the new-Danes the possibility to express themselves and their
point of views on Danes and Danish culture in a musical mode.

Let's remake the world III
Seminar and Workshop
This is the third event in a series initiated by the Library of Radiant
Optimism (Brett Bloom + Bonnie Fortune) and YNKB, which started in
late 2006 with The Radiantly Optimistic Poster Show!exhibited at YNKB,
December 2006, and at Messhall, Chicago, June 2007. This exhibition
was followed by a seminar in Messhall: What We Know of Our Past -
What We Demand of Our Future, January 18-20, 2008.
We are inspired by the groundswell of optimistic and visionary activities
in the late 1960s and early 1970s. We are interested in this time
period and the massive counter-cultural movement it produced in the
face of international political and social turmoil. We find ourselves
in a similar global environment of unprecedented crises, and we are
wondering how we can make visible and cohesive the currently existing
activities. Is there potential to add to the optimistic histories
of past activism with our own movements? This project seeks to not
only create a discussion about the place of optimism in the face of
war, environmental devastation, and global capitalism, but to examine
how optimism can help fuel positive change in a realistic way.

Art after Work III: “How much did you pay
for this plot of land?"
5 pm: Folkekøkken
7 pm: Introduction to the exhibition: “How much did you pay
for this plot of land? Land Value in Ramallah and East Jerusalem..
By Oliver Clemens and Sabine Horlitz from An Arkhitektur, Berlin.
A one dunam (1000 square meters) plot of land in the center of Ramallah
costs up to $8 million; the same plot costs $300,000 in an upper-class
residential area; near the settlement of Psagot, by contrast, a one-dunam
plot costs only $30,000, while a dunam of land inside Zone C is available
for $3,000. Through such an analysis of land value, political conditions,
conflicts, social expectations and hopes all come to the fore.
See the whole introduction.
