The economical straights that a large part of the population are victims of in the Ukrain, basically forces many femanles into prostitution for lack of other job choices. Many are trying to survive from €150 or €200 a month. The government is actively promoting prostitution as a driving economical force in the Ukraine.<br /><br />

FEMEN: 3 members of the feminist activist gang will be sharing their methods of intervention collected over years of radical actions. Femen was founded in 2008 by an appalled Anna Hutsol who could not sit passively any longer watching the false promises of 'arranged Marriages' and human trafficking in a misogynist society as well as the Ukraine being used as the whore house of Europe. Their cause has spread further fighting the feminist war the world over, and yes, this is growing!<br />
Be ready for action and come to the workshop, naked & courageous!<br />
<br />
VOINA: (originally invited to this GM) We tried it all, escape routs by sea & land, we found matching passports for them to use. But the problem was mostly how to get them back into Russia, where their fight is being fought & not to fit them into some artist residencies where the luxury problems seep into & tarnish the radical fire. Voina are staying in hiding in Russia, we are presenting a talk & video screening.<br />
<br />
THE CLINTWOOD SHOW: Old school hip hop was the voice of freedom & equality coming from the rough predominately african american hoods just 20 years after the civil rights movement in the US. Today a lot of that has been lost to Piles of cash, Tits & Ass, violence & misogyny. Timor Litzenberger & Stepha Zanella a.k.a. Frau Zapatista have built new beats over the music that should not be left behind. Hip hop cover songs ...electroRapCover/oldSchool/NewBeats, Get High on Low Frequencies.<br />

<br />
The limitations that lives have through the ages, with or without tales, the ecstatic days of gangs splashing through oceans & the pain, isolation & torture of captured creatures, sometimes consumed by starving sailors. The mermaid show is the mermaid myths through time, collected reports of sightings, not of the silly pin up transferred to water, but it is a mermaid that has peeling, webbed skin, you know, it is not easy living in water.<br />

Fabulate sailors for centuries over whether YOU really are: mermaids. Wonderful nature, longed for on lonely nights on board.<br />
<strong>THIS mermaid is washable!</strong><br />
Washed up on the south bank of Elbe River. Splish splash, her
gray-blue tail dries there at seven degrees Celsius in the first timid
spring sunshine – but as soon as it disappears behind the clouds, it
would be warmer in the water …<br />
<strong>WHO IS THE MERMAID?</strong><br />
In the marine costume puts US artist Ann Liv Young, appearing this
weekend at Kampnagel. The New Yorker is known for her radical
performances. The “Mermaid Show” (“Mermaid Show”).<br />
<strong>What’s it about?</strong><strong> </strong><strong>“I’m caught by sailors.</strong><strong> </strong><strong>I ripped out of my element.</strong><strong> </strong><strong>Cannot talk, do not move me.</strong><strong> </strong><strong>Still am not a helpless girl,” she says – and bites on the stage in raw fish.</strong><br />
For her performance slipped in the Young-made especially for her
tail. Outer silicone, latex inside, to foot parts as in a diving suit,
to be flexible. A mermaid, the art is.<br />
<strong>In Copenhagen, there is a bronze in the harbor, which became the symbol of the city.</strong><strong> </strong><strong>The Hamburg mermaid is not forever – she’s flesh and blood.</strong><br />

Beyond nudity and yelling — common ingredients in performance art — the reputation of <a href="http://www.annlivyoung.com/" title="Her (possibly NSFW) Web site.">Ann Liv Young</a>
is that she is ruthless, shameless and takes no prisoners. She may wear
disguises, yet she never masks her impatience with the person running
the sound or a fellow cast member, who often turns out to be her
real-life partner, Michael A. Guerrero.</div>

In a recent <a href="https://twitter.com/#%21/annlivyoung/status/200414970226290689" title="Her feed.">Twitter post</a>
about her “Mermaid Show,” Ms. Young, who is pregnant with her second
child, did offer a warning: “i will be uncomfortable. you may be too.”
</div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
Opening on Thursday night as part of the <a href="http://lamama.org/programs/la-mama-moves-dance-festival/" title="lamama.org">La MaMa Moves! Dance Festival</a>
in the East Village, “Mermaid Show” is Ms. Young at her most ferocious.
Naked from the waist up, Ms. Young — wearing a scaly mermaid tail,
contact lenses that turn her irises black, under-eye slashes for gill
slits and peeling pancake makeup — was more <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076504/" title="imdb.com">“Orca”</a> than “<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSK4KSZdBr4" title="Film trailer">Splash</a>.” You don’t want to swim with her; you want to bolt for dry land. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
In “Mermaid,” her sailor minions made that difficult. Wielding buckets
of water, they operated like an indoor sprinkler system. Ms. Young’s
works are never about passive viewing, but in her popular Sherry shows,
she riles people up with words, goading audience members into confessing
their secrets through improvisational dialogue. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
“Mermaid,” a set piece that isn’t conventionally participatory, provokes audience reaction through movement. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
As Ms. Young reclined on her back in a mint green pool filled with
water, webbed fingers and strands of her long reddish wig hung over its
sides. Mr. Guerrero read a text explaining that if a sailor refuses a
mermaid’s seduction, he perishes. Nearby was a heaving mound of dirt —
all signs pointed to a person trapped inside — with miniature dolls
stuck on its mountainous top. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
A thread throughout all of Ms. Young’s performance pieces is popular
songs. More than just a tool for setting the scene, music is what
transforms her into her characters; it fuels her performance energy.
</div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
Starting with Foreigner’s “Cold as Ice,” the piece turned more intimate
with Sam Cooke’s “You Were Made for Me” and, later, a mash-up of Jewel
and Joan Baez. Such gentle moments also contrasted with the main event,
in which Ms. Young, now an enraged sea lion, tore from the stage to
thrash her way into the risers, where there were no chairs. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
At close range, Ms. Young’s ravaged mermaid looked diseased. She
serenaded an impressively stoic man in the audience (“Come swim with me,
and be my sailor,” she sang, while staring into his eyes and touching
his face) and then went rabid on a raw fish, ripping out chunks with her
teeth and spitting them at us. It smelled worse than unrefrigerated
bodega sushi. </div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
The fish-dodging scene lasted probably two minutes, but it seemed like
two hours. Beyond the obvious — it was gross — the act resonated in
terms of character development. Isn’t this, after all, exactly how a
mermaid would ravage a fish? The way the terrified audience fled from
Ms. Young as she hoisted her 40-pound tail and her pregnant belly up the
risers was priceless. Still, I must defend the group: She was a
monster. </div>

This evening was based on loosing oneself in order to find ons self, a phenix method which is very much present in the work of Mathilde Ter Heijne. Nina Power's talk was partially an police report from an officer arresting Nina mixed with a paper on activism & young women.<br />

Burns & A.L. Steiner and many more mostly New York Based artists.<br />
This is a very beautiful X rated porn with a great soundtrack, yes, including a Chicks on Speed & Dirty Disco Youth piece.<br />
Community Action Center is a new <i>kind</i> of film, it does not fit into existing categories. CAC confuses who is on top & who is a bottom, it integrates porn cliches which become ecstatic, aesthetic moments.<br />
CAC is at the same time a manual, a juicy how to ... We had a bit of a yellow press scandal here in Hamburg. The screening was was extremely full & also included a hetero normative curious fraction who generally do not come to GM nights. The Bild Zeitung did not mention that a lot of the porn was lesbian, which was fine, an older man asked ma 3/4 through the film, if Pony, the mainly featured artist was male of female. I think & I hope this sexual confusion was not an isolated incident with this man & I find it an important contemporary attitude towards sexual identities, post gender, post gay/straight, inclusive, exclusive, different vs normal. The individual make up of a person is more interesting, perhaps I have 1/4 boy, 1/2 shy girl & 1/4 hot mom, and tomorrow is a new mix and not a fixed label which confines instead of allowing for the free movement of the human Eros. <br />

Girl Monster sends strength & courage to those in the struggle, and thank you, the power shift is immense and can be felt, even if our lame governments wing on about immigrants and blame each other for having too close contacts to Qaddafi. <br />
