For over a decade, they have been creating video works and installations in dialogue with other artists and collectives operating outside the established field of contemporary art.<br><br>A defining feature of their artistic process is collaborative engagement: the respective groups actively participate in shaping the script, set design, music, choreography, and overall staging. Wagner &amp; de Burca\u2019s audiovisual works strikingly highlight pressing socio-political issues within the communities of performers, showing how these communities find a voice through the cultural forms with which they identify.<br><br>Together with and for the SCHIRN, a new video production will explore the \u201cStraight Edge\u201d scene in Germany, in and around Frankfurt am Main. United under the exhibition title The Tunnels We Dig, the show will present this new work alongside two existing video installations: RISE (2018, Toronto, Canada) and Est\u00e1s vendo coisas \/ You Are Seeing Things (2016, Recife, Brazil).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='col col-xs-12 ho-pattern-optional-button padding-top-4'>\n\n<div  class='wp-block-ho-buttons '>\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-buttons-item\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.de\/\"  target=\"\" role=\"button\" aria-pressed=\"false\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"ho-button is-primary mobile-full-width\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ho-button-label \">Lorem Ipsum<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern show-optional-headline' data-pattern='ho\/text-nennungen'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-6'>\t<div class=\"wp-block-ho-lane-wrapper\" data-orientation=\"horizontal\" data-lane-item-count=\"2\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container-fluid \">\n\t\t\t<ul class=\"wp-block wp-block-ho-grid row\">\n\t\t\t\t\n<li class=\"wp-block-ho-lane-item col col-xs-12\">\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-3'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body-small'>Curator<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body'>Katharina Dohm<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-ho-lane-item col col-xs-12\">\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-3'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body-small'>Curatorial assistance <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body'>Cornelia Eisendle<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n\n\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern show-optional-headline' data-pattern='ho\/text-nennungen'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-6'>\t<div class=\"wp-block-ho-lane-wrapper\" data-orientation=\"horizontal\" data-lane-item-count=\"3\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container-fluid \">\n\t\t\t<ul class=\"wp-block wp-block-ho-grid row\">\n\t\t\t\t\n<li class=\"wp-block-ho-lane-item col col-xs-12\">\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-3'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body-small'>Supported by the<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body'>German Federal Cultural Foundation<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-ho-lane-item col col-xs-12\">\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-3'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body-small'>Supported by the<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body'>Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media (BKM)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-ho-lane-item col col-xs-12\">\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-3'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body-small'>Additional support by<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body'>SCHIRN ZEITGENOSSEN<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n\n\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ho_image_focal_point":"","footnotes":""},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.schirn.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition-detail\/34273","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.schirn.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition-detail"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.schirn.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/exhibition-detail"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/staging.schirn.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition-detail\/34273\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":46111,"href":"https:\/\/staging.schirn.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition-detail\/34273\/revisions\/46111"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.schirn.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34273"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
