Artists working group — Can Artists Sustain Sustainable Art?Location: Rå Hal 1, Godsbanen - Participants list
Location: Rå Hal 1, Godsbanen
Address: Godsbanen, Skovgaardsgade 3, Indgang 3A, Aarhus | Event Map | Venue Accessibility The Artists working group invites you to a session - Can Artists Sustain Sustainable Art? Initiated at the Belgrade Plenary in 2022, the Artists working group is a network of IETM members who identify primarily as artists. The group addresses topics connected to the performing arts sector from an artists’ point of view. It aims to create positive dialogue with other professionals in the field, and - in this meeting - questions what kind of “sustainability” they want to pursue. Environmental sustainability only exists in tandem with social and economic sustainability. Living on the Edge describes the precarity artists face. There is a gap between what the system asks and what the system affords artists. Therefore - is the performing arts’ ecosystem in good health? Can we find ways of “re-greening” our working biosphere in order for it to flourish? We invite you to investigate these questions from a local, intercultural and transcontinental perspective through a creative game based on the World Cafe method.

If you come straight from Godsbanen, the nearest entrance is from Skovgårdsgade 2C. How have we reached this point of an environmental crisis with so little change? What is it going to take for society to step up, take action and drive an ecological revolution? We often hear about the polarisation of modern societies, but when it comes to climate change and vanishing landscapes, shouldn't those who want to protect the ecosystem and share liveable land unite against those who don't? Before revolutions can take place, a cultural shift needs to happen. As societal values and class aesthetics evolve, a new social organisation can emerge which is aware of its own interests and ready to take power from those who resist. 'Nature doesn't unify — it divides'.* Join us as we take a provocative dive into the sociology of the ecological transition in the first keynote address of the IETM Aarhus Plenary Meeting. *Schultz, Nikolaj, and Bruno Latour.

Art and Activism I - The Environmental Crisis: A tragic dilemma for the artist?Location: Rytmisk sal, Musikhuset - Participants list
Location: Rytmisk sal, Musikhuset
Address: Musikhuset Thomas Jensens Allé 2 | Event Map | Venue Accessibility Traditional language may not be enough to convey the enormity of the challenges we face in a rapidly changing environment. While scientists may have data on the urgency of climate change, artists are most likely better positioned to predict our cultural climate. Both nature and art can teach us to see the world in a new light - but how can we combine the artistic purpose of our work with reducing our environmental impact and creating awareness, when these are not always aligned? During this session, two artists whose work is intimately linked to the human experience of water will share insights on their relationship with activism and how they relate to the urgent need for the reduction of the environmental impact of human culture.

Address: Godsbanen, Skovgaardsgade 3, Indgang 3A, Aarhus | Event Map | Venue Accessibility After a successful first launch at IETM Belgrade and a series of informative webinars leading up to IETM Aarhus, the IETM Environmental Working Group is committed to creating an international environmental charter for IETM Environmental Working Group, which will hopefully inspire others in the IETM network.

Ferske Scener — Blood Club [Guest performance from Tromsø] [FULL]Location: Radar, Godsbanen - Participants list
Location: Radar, Godsbanen
Address: Godsbanen, Skovgaardsgade 3, Indgang 3A, Aarhus | Event Map | Venue Accessibility In an unpredictable mix of humour and sincerity, Blood Club deals with themes of belonging, community, cultural heritage and cultural future. Blood Club is a series of performative encounters where the artists and the audience investigate our contradictory relationship with genetics and culture. It’s a search for the ultimate feeling of togetherness and how to create a strong community. The leaders of Blood Club represent archetypes from the north: 'The Sami activist', 'the researcher', 'the victim of Norwegianisation ' and 'the bearer of Norwegian guilt'. They search to expand or develop these 'types' and create new roles for the future while presenting possibilities - or perhaps utopias - that can replace them. There will be speeches, exercises and live music by the hard-core-band Ondt Blod. Duration: 2 hours Genre: Performative encounter Price: Free Credits Performers: Kristin Bjørn, Bernt Bjørn, Kristina Junttila, Sigbjørn Skåden and Hilde Kristin Liu Music: Ondt Blod v/Aslak Heikka Hætta Bjørn, Alexander Våga Mortensen, John Nilsen, Håvard Rushfeldt and Jørgen Store Johansen Get in touchProduction contact: Marianne Siljuberg Status: Ready for touring How to book?Attendance by pre-registration only.

If you come straight from Godsbanen, the nearest entrance is from Skovgårdsgade 2C. The Land Back movement is a grassroots movement that aims to return sovereignty over land to Indigenous communities and redress the systemic oppression of Indigenous peoples. They do so by reclaiming land and restoring their cultural practices and recognising their unique relationship with the land. This movement is crucial for protecting Indigenous rights and preserving biodiversity. Unfortunately, Indigenous communities have to face additional challenges as the increasing demand for green energy often results in the destruction of perfectly thriving ecosystems. In Norway, a notable protest is currently underway as climate and Indigenous activists fight against a windmill farm constructed on unceded and sacred Indigenous land, with striking parallels to the 1980s Alta conflict over a hydroelectric power plant in the same area. A young Sami actor leads the protest as a spokesperson, and her recent role in a film depicting the earlier protests raises questions about the intersection of fiction, reality and of past and present policies. How can this situation give us a deeper understanding of the paradox of green energy production? Can art negotiate a new understanding of history, while it is repeating itself in front of our eyes? Speaker: Aili Keskitalo, Former Sápmi President, Sápmi/Norway Hosted by: Maria Utsi, Davvi - Centre for Performing Arts, Norway This session will be captioned and broadcasted online on HowlRound.

Art and Activism II - Transforming Culture through Artistic InfluenceLocation: Remisen, Godsbanen - Participants list
Location: Remisen, Godsbanen
Address: Godsbanen, Skovgaardsgade 3, Indgang 3A, Aarhus | Event Map | Venue Accessibility Join us as we explore the transformative potential the arts have in instigating cultural change. How can artists and the arts play a key role in influencing the narrative on climate change and inspire positive change - both within the arts sector and in society at large? Through the examples of three artistic practices, we will investigate how artistic forms can be used to affect change and how the arts can play a crucial role in both small and significant transformations towards building a culture that reevaluates our fundamental archetypes and takes into account the more-than-human dimension. Facilitator Thiago Jesus, People's Palace Projects, United Kingdom Speakers Angela Rawlings, Artist and Researcher, Iceland Christine Fentz, Secret Hotel / Earthwise Residency, Denmark Reneltta Arluk, Akpik Theatre, Canada |

Indigenous Ecological Knowledge II - ‘By The Collective’Location: Rå Hal, Godsbanen - Participants list
Location: Rå Hal, Godsbanen
Address: Godsbanen, Skovgaardsgade 3, Indgang 3A, Aarhus | Event Map | Venue Accessibility This immersive workshop will delve into the differences between Western and Indigenous ontologies from a Sámi perspective. By exploring the meanings and ways of being, doing and knowing that are rooted in cosmological perspectives, we can gain a better understanding of the Sámi's celebration of collectivity. As well as this, we will also explore their awareness on the impact of every choice made on the collective as opposed to the Western view - which often idealises individualism. Together, we will examine how these differing ontological perspectives relate to issues of sustainability and climate justice. Join us for an insightful session carried out ‘By the Collective’. Note ‘By the Collective’ is an ongoing discursive performance developed by Hásstuheaddji/By The Collective. Facilitators Beaska Niillas, Hásstuheaddji/By The Collective, Sápmi /Norway Liisa-Ravna Finbog, Hásstuheaddji/By The Collective, Sápmi /Finland Timimie Märak, Hásstuheaddji/By The Collective, Sápmi /Sweden Guests Kuluk Helms, Actor, Culture Bearer, Poet, Performing Artist, Greenland HH - Hans-Henrik S.
