The image is taken from the performance in public space “Disjunkte Mengen” in Vienna on the 29th of May 2019. It deals with the topic of social distance in an interconnected system. The RGB-colour circles form together a unit, but are also single elements in coexistence with each other.
The drop-like shape reminds of the google maps location sign. The performative route could be tracked live via link on google maps. The intervention in public space raises the question of privacy policy during quarantine, in which groups of people were tracked through their mobile phones. The term “disjunkt” is taken from mathematics, describing sets without a common intersection.

A mass given in Polish at a Catholic Church in Boston. The town is home to many migrant agricultural workers from Eastern Europe whose lives were thrown into uncertainty by the Brexit vote. In the years since the referendum many have left the area and for the last three years UK fruit harvesters have been unable to attract enough workers, leaving fruit and vegetables rotting in the fields.The town of Boston recorded the highest Brexit vote in Britain with 75.6% voting to leave the European Union.

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
In human terms, our aim is to make everyone feel that they are part of a unique group.
One person can do a lot, but people together can devote themselves and make us rise: sharing our knowledge, our skills, our experience, and our emotions with others is fundamental. The synergy and, mainly, the reciprocal respect are important to build cohesion and live together.
„Coexist / Coextinct? Game over. Play again?”
So far people have been acting as if natural resources were infinite. We have been drawing on them selfishly again and again. Now we need to face the fact that some results of expansion of our civilisation are irreversible. Are we going to start to respect other lifes; those of people, animals and plants? Or will we extinct as a result of our greed?
The broken hourglass shows that time of abusing natural resources in the name of economical growth has ended. Will it be possible to play the game of conquerring nature again? I doubt it.
„Coexist / Coextinct? To be or not to be.”

The skull, referring to the one held by prince Hamlet, is composed of chimney producing smoke, cut trees and coins. It is also a reminder that humans’ actions of nature abusing lead to the end of our civilisation.
„Coexist / Coextinct? Oops, we did it again.”

Hand grabs the coin from a tree just as Eve had grabbed an apple from tree of knowledge in the garden of Eden. The reference to this cliché image aims at showing that perhaps we are about to loose the current paradise of life in well-developped countries very soon.
Philosophy of Coexistence
It’s coexistence or no existence – B. Russell
Ten Years of SCHIRN MAG
The SCHIRN MAG has established itself as an important medium in the contemporary art and culture scene in the ten years since its launch. Starting with the Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt’s exhibitions and themes, the spectrum of contributions to the online magazine has continued to evolve. The SCHIRN MAG is therefore now presenting itself in an entirely new design and layout.
With its permanent columns, the SCHIRN MAG provides insights into the contemporary art scene, in German and English. “Context” includes essays, features, portraits, and soundtracks about current exhibitions and themes at the Schirn. Since 2015, “Schirn Podcast” has been offering art to listen to—the first ever German podcast by an art institution. In “Interview,” artists explain their works, and experts open up new points of view. Contemporary video art and portraits of artists from the Schirn’s monthly series DOUBLE FEATURE make up a special focus of the rubric “Video Art.” Selected highlights and events of the contemporary art and culture scene as well as film and book discoveries can be found under “Schirn Tip.” In the column “069,” the Schirn introduces protagonists from Frankfurt’s creative scene and their living and working environments. Finally, “What’s Cooking” combines art and culinary delights from different perspectives.
The focus of the SCHIRN MAG’s new design format is deliberately placed on a simple graphic presentation whose optimized font size gives priority to high-quality contents and heightens readability. The homepage of the online magazine, laid out as a display window, offers readers a clear overview of the whole range of multifaceted offers and themes. Full-screen chapter markers provide readers with a clear structure and clearly distinguish text contributions, videos, and podcasts. Image areas that are alternately large and small, make for liveliness and extend an invitation to explore. The Schirn is reacting to the altered reader behavior since the last relaunch as well as to the current viewing habits of its readers. At the same time, the SCHIRN MAG’s appearance is gaining more independence from the Schirn website. The new magazine design was developed and implemented by Henne / Ordnung in close collaboration with the team of the Schirn.
Philipp Demandt, Director of the Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt, explains: “The SCHIRN MAG is a success story and has been an integral part of our digital strategy for the last ten years. With its new design, we are placing even more focus on its contents. With the SCHIRN MAG, we are opening up space for the examination of public discourses and the exchange of views on art from different perspectives, beyond the spatial boundaries of the Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt.”
The SCHIRN MAG provides its readers with the opportunity to receive new articles, videos, podcasts, tips, and specials directly on their mobile phones via the app Notify and the Telegram Messenger service. Additional information is available at SCHIRN MAG NEWS.

a construct
Coexistence means existing in the same place and time, in peace and harmony. But it also means that each part depends on another. When one is breaking the construction gets weaker and falls apart, it wouldn’t work anymore. Coexistence means together. And together we build a strong unity.
That is the power of mankind.
Merge
“Merge” is the first word that came to my mind when I thought about “coexistence”.
The idea behind it is the concept that we are all connected, and that everything depends on everything else. The acceptance of all living things being interlinked would lead to the ideal coexistence – In the end, we are all “one”.
Come together
respect the room — there’s enough for everyone
respect the room — there’s enough for everyone
Storm-bred
The house survives the storm. Or is the storm still on? The piece tries to depict the mindset of today, where we have to coexist together with nature and it’s wrath for our crimes from centuries on.
Holy Sepulchre
There aren’t that many places on earth where the idea of coexistence is associated with so much contradiction like in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem: here, the Greek Orthodox, the Roman Catholic Church, the Armenian Church meet with the Syrian Orthodox Church, the Ethiopian Orthodox and the Copts – like the pictured monk, kneeling at the Stone of the Anointing. Each church comes with its own rules, its own demands, its own principles about how coexistence should be. Which can get a little messy, so much so that the monks don’t just get uncooperative but sometimes start serious brawls. Indeed, coexistence needs its space (but there’s a light that never goes out 🙂
2gether
During these apocalyptic times, we all experienced something we didn’t expect. Many of us lost their jobs. Some of us didn’t go back in their home country and stayed in another place. This could happen again. And probably will. We are stronger together. Let’s build a new world based on mutual understanding, help and tolerance, compassion, togetherness.

Co-exist

ONE WΩRLD/ØNE PATH
My submission represents a dreamy, fuzzy vision of a cosmic gathering between two worlds, the world of the apparent light and the world of the apparent darkness, where the light is hiding the dark and the darkness is hiding a glow.
The only possible world is a world in which opposite forces work together for a common goal, following the same path towards the enlightenment.
Enlightenment means mutual respect, compassion, love, understanding, solidarity, collaboration.
We are One.
Did we really need a virus to understand that?
