Episode 2: reflecting on the festival’s theme of “LOVE,” poetry as a compass, and exhibition-making as world-building — Fatima Hellberg and Ariana Reines.
In the second episode of the curated by podcast, festival directors Attilia Fattori Franchini and Christina Linher are in conversation with Fatima Hellberg (director of mumok – Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig, Vienna) and Ariana Reines (writer and poet, New York). Together, they discuss what it means to approach love as an orientation, Ariana’s brilliant essay accompanying this year’s festival, Kate Millett’s installation Terminal Piece (1972), currently exhibited at mumok, and its role in re-envisioning the museum’s collection, as well as the profound power of exhibition-making and poetry to reorient the soul.
