DAY LABORER: Project by CRAFT in cooperation with Guadalupe Aldrete, Marko Marković und Raphael Reichl, curated by Ursula Maria Probst and Nina Vobruba
The term “day laborer” is widely associated with people who, due to unemployment, immigration status, race or gender, are forced to work for a day in an underpaid and unprotected job. Traditionally, employers select day laborers at certain unofficial locations and bring them to the workplace, called the “labor line”. This labor model appears to be a past practice that meets both supply and demand for labor. However, currently, “mini-jobs”, “project-based jobs” or “employed on a case-by-case basis” are indicative of this type of employment. This concept favors employers’ profits, but leaves employees without additional benefits such as social security. A lack of opportunities for advancement, repetitive tasks or physically demanding jobs with relatively low wages requires extreme short-termism. The day laborer concept had an impact on other work models.
The DAY LABORER project combines the reflections of four artistic positions, discussing the regression of workers’ rights, working conditions in times of late capitalism and the return of right-wing politics, with a particular focus on the vulnerability of cultural workers. Collective CRAFT is going to collaborate with Guadalupe Aldrete (MX/DE), Marko Marković (HR) und Raphael Reichl (AT).
Daten & Location: Thursday, 5.12.2024 starts at 19:00 Uhr at FLUCC, Praterstern 5, 1020 Vienna.

Liminal Spaces: Tracing Dreams, Fears, and Futures
curated by Guadalupe Aldrete
The works in this exhibition move in the field of tension between fears, dreams, hopes and actions. To what extent can we delve deeper into the origins of our fears and negative energies, give them a concrete form and develop strategies to use them as a resource? The artistic contributions aim to create movement – they reflect on paralyzing emotions, recurring fears, possible scope for action and the process of self-empowerment.
The prints Digging for Shades explore fears, nightmares, dreams and memories – inspired by narratives from different generations and epigenetic perspectives. At the same time, Somos Semillas multimedia objects in the space deal intensively with moments of hope and new possibilities for action. The video work Poetic Anxious Memories combines these thoughts, stories and interpretations into a multi-layered picture.

ARCHIVE
10 MINUTES SHIFT
Minutes Shift is a project in the form of a curated exhibition which challenges the relationship between time, work, production, and value. In a world where productivity often reigns supreme, this exhibition questions the conventional notions by inviting artists to present art pieces created in 10 minutes. The exhibition interrogates the intrinsic worth of artistic production in a society fixated on commodification and consumption. By challenging the notion that value is contingent upon time spent, the exhibition invites to reassess the preconceptions about the economic and cultural valuation of art. Words like fair pay, freelancing, freedom, welfare, remain often just words in the everyday-life of artistic production.
The curated selection of artworks offers a diverse array of perspectives on the intersection of time, work, production, and value. From sketches to installations and actions, the artworks create a statement which transcends the limitations of the clock and the value that society gives to it. The spectators will be confronted with the ephemeral nature of artistic expression and the relentless march of time. “10 Minutes Shift” compels us to contemplate the fleeting moments and to reconsider the intrinsic value of creative work. In doing so, it invites to reframe the understanding of the relationship between time, work, production, and value in contemporary society.

InBEtween 2024 – deep time
curated by Constance Hatice Steininger.
This year, the exhibition project inBEtween deals with the theme of Deep Time – a time frame concept that relates to processes of the universe and life, in the broader sense of the perception of time. Linear or as a cycle? This offers a holistic view of developments, placing the community in the spotlight.
International artists present their reflections in various forms to enable an active discourse on the topic. The artists’ own experiences of being in-between help to create a new approach that can unfold away from standardized thought patterns, dominant culture and exoticism.
