About the event
"Waldgartenpilot Rehfelde" is a community project that aims to transform 2.7 hectares near Berlin into a successful ecological and economic food production site. It serves as a pilot project to make these steps replicable for future initiatives. The idea for the forest garden originated with Ramos. Matthias joined the core team in spring 2020 and co-founded the project in Rehfelde.

Event Series
The exhibition Alt Nets is part of the project find.select.transform – Resilient Networks in a Wounded World, which responds to the pressing social, ecological, and economic challenges of our time. It employs artistic positions to critically examine how current technological developments and organizational practices can contribute to a sustainable transformation of our society.
The project aims to highlight alternative strategies, aesthetic positions, and networks that challenge the conventional understanding of growth. In doing so, it emphasizes the role of art in narrating such developments and seeks ways to address power imbalances and extractivism.
The focus will be on artistic positions regarding the climate catastrophe and community networks that promote democratic participation and equality.
The schedule for 2024 includes the symposium in June and September, the presentation of telepresent artists and a live streaming event in October as well as the exhibition and accompanying programs from September to October. The variety of formats promotes interdisciplinarity and multiperspectivity.
Partners
The realization of exhibition is made possible by funds from the Hauptstadtkulturfonds.
