GLOBART Academy 2020 POWER
in the Nuclear Power Plant Zwentendorf
30th - 31st of October
What better place to reflect and discuss power, than in the atmosphere of a nuclear power plant, that due to a referendum was never put into operation.
Karin Sander and Harald Welzer on art as a translation of future models and its ability "to perforate the reality assertion of every contemporary society". "Future is certainly not the only area that cannot be explored, simply because it is not there. The future is something you can only create. The future can only be how you make it."

The concrete surrounds people. The artist Nikolaus Eckhard imagines that the archaeologists of our future will look at the skeletons of our buildings and understand them as part of our own skeletons. In reference to the exchange of information between wooden panel and fresh concrete in the construction phase of the museum building, he used his body as a boarding and thus held the concrete between himself and the building until it became solid in the performance "brea.th.through".

Seyran Atés - Islam in Europe - does this confuse us? The future of Europe is no longer conceivable without Muslims. For this reason, Europe would benefit from dealing with the issue of Islam in Europe more intensively and honestly.

Susan Neiman on the resistance of reason. "From the fact that some moral claims are hidden claims to power, one cannot conclude that every claim to act for the common good conceals a claim to power. But logic is rarely the strength of thinkers who often write in such obscurity that they remind us of Nietzsche's saying: "They cloud the waters so that they appear deep."

Refugee flows had shaped our reality in 2015. At the ACADEMY 2016 we made a statement. Not talking about it, but doing something together: Like a big family, we had a celebration. Together we cooked, played music, ate, laughed, told stories, made friends - in the tradition of our guests: sitting on the floor.

There are also difficult moments. But then you can be thankful for the opportunity to learn, grow, or protest through this situation."

Marina Abramovic, the most important performance artist of the present, has radically changed the art world. She touched millions of people with the power of her silence. In the domed hall of the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna she was awarded the GLOBART AWARD in 2018.
With the presentation of this year's GLOBART AWARD 2016, we bow to the artist and human Michael Haneke, who masterfully directs our gaze to realities that surround us.
The GLOBART AWARD 2017 was handed to economist Jeffrey D. Sachs for his commitment as an international advocate for a global eco-social market economy. Sachs is committed to a fairer distribution of resources. The award was deliberately presented at the heart of monetary policy, at the Austrian National Bank.
With Tino Sehgal, GLOBART is honouring one of the most innovative artists of the present with the GLOBART AWARD 2015. He does not add new objects to the world, but enables encounters between people that move, inspire, make people think and change their minds. His search for truthfulness and his commitment to sustainability make him a role model and a beacon of hope for Generation Y.
The World Peace Game turns teaching upside down, because it is more than just a game! Knowledge, creativity and social competence are in demand. Teachers become observers and mediators. In a playful way, children are confronted with realistic, global conflicts, which they should solve together.

Europe is currently experiencing a political crisis. What frightens or threatens me the most or what needs to be preserved the most? The Greek artist Danae Stratou literally posed this question into the room with symmetrical urgency. Stratou's work is a vivid reflection of the social zeitgeist. One hundred voices became part of the artwork.
