              <p>Für die Ausstellungsreihe >>EDITh<< – Wand-
                und Schaufensterzeitung, von Walden Kunstausstellungen
                geht Birgit Szepanski auf den historischen Aspekt von
                Wandzeitungen als Mittel der politischen
                Meinungsäußerung ein. Ihre Installation ist im
                Schaufenster und Innenraum zu sehen: Auf einen Vorhang
                sind Archivfotos genäht; selbstentworfene und genähte
                Fahnen, die auf einer (fiktiven) Demonstration genutzt
                werden könnten, hängen im Raum und korrespondieren mit
                den Archivfotos.<br>
                Mit ihren textilen Objekten schafft die Künstlerin
                Referenzen zur Geschichte der Umgebung des
                Ausstellungsortes Walden in Berlin-Neukölln. Parallel
                dazu zeigt Szepanski ihre Bild- und Textrecherche zu
                Widerstandsgruppen und Demonstrationen in den 1930er
                Jahren in Berlin-Neukölln (u.a. zu Hellmut Bock und
                Helene Nathan).* <br>
                »Was vom Gestern übrig blieb (und sich in Bewegung
                setzt)« ist der Titel der Installation und eine
                Fragestellung,  der Birgit Szepanski in einem Text zur
                Ausstellung nachgeht. Es sind Fragen zur
                Zeitwahrnehmung, zur Stadt und zum politischen Agieren,
                die die Künstlerin stellt: Existieren das Neue und die
                Hoffnung nur in einer zukunftsgerichteten Gegenwart oder
                auch in der Vergangenheit? Wie treten vergangene
                Hoffnungen im Hier und Jetzt in Erscheinung? Finden wir
                ›revolutionäre Augenblicke‹ beim Gehen und Erinnern
                durch die Stadt? <br>

              <p><font color="#408080">For the exhibition series
                  >> EDITh << - Wall and Shop Window
                  Exhibition, by Walden Art Exhibitions, Birgit
                  Szepanski deals with the historical aspect of wall
                  newspapers as a means of political expression. Her
                  installation can be seen in the shop window and in the
                  interior: archive photos are sewn onto a curtain;
                  Self-designed and sewn flags that could be used on a
                  (fictional) demonstration hang in the room and
                  correspond with the archive photos.<br>
                  With her textile objects, the artist creates
                  references to the history of the surroundings of the
                  Walden exhibition site in Berlin-Neukölln. At the same
                  time, Szepanski shows her photo and text research on
                  resistance groups and demonstrations in
                  Berlin-Neukölln in the 1930s (including Hellmut Bock
                  and Helene Nathan). *<br>
                  "What was left of yesterday (and starts moving)" is
                  the title of the installation and a question that
                  Birgit Szepanski explores in a text accompanying the
                  exhibition. The artist poses questions about the
                  perception of time, the city and political action: do
                  the new and hope only exist in a future-oriented
                  present or also in the past? How do past hopes
                  manifest in the here and now? Do we find
                  'revolutionary moments' while walking and remembering
                  through the city?</font></p>
