The Johannesburg Workshop in Theory and Criticism (JWTC) is an experi-

ment in global conversation based in the South. As part of a ‘mobile work-

shop’ concept around this year’s theme Archives of the Non-Racial,

the 2014 edition will take place in Johannesburg, Mbabane

(Swaziland), Durban, Ginsberg and Cape Town. In Johannesburg, the

programme will include lectures and conversations with Achille Mbembe,

Ahmed Kathrada, ruja benjamin, David Goldberg and Siba Grovogui.

Metropolises are shapeshifting. In Where Paradise Grows, curated by Ingrid

LaFleur, the causes are being investigated. Inspired by the transformations

that are occurring in both Detroit and Johannesburg, the exhibit explores

the relationship between complex science and social justice through the

work of Detroit-based artist collective Complex Movements. Complex

Movements combines the collective talents of visual artist Wesley Taylor;

lyricist and activist Invincible; creative technologist Carlos Garcia and

music producer Waajeed. For Where Paradise Grows they collaborated

with architect Aaron Jones and designed a post-apocalyptic world using

art installation, gaming techniques, video projection, interactive hip-hop

performance and creative technology. Where Paradise Grows is part

of the larger project AFroToPIA that uses Afrofuturism as a tool for

transformative education.

now in its fifth year, the Durban FilmMart (dFm) is a finance and co-

production market. It aims to bring growth and recognition to the African

film industry, creating opportunities to develop strategic relationships

between film financiers and african filmmakers. the 7th Berlinale Talents

Durban will bring together filmmakers from across the continent to

draw inspiration from Africa’s long tradition of story-telling. Through an

Who creates the city? Who shapes its future? In the light of pressing

challenges such as global warming, economic crisis, migration and

demographic change, this question is crucial.

Will the city of the future be shaped by the usual experts, decision makers

and investors or will new and informal players take the initiative? on a

global level, self-driven initiatives and participation are on the rise in urban

development processes.

Weltstadt – who creates the city? is an initiative of the Goethe-Institut

that connects local projects in riga, new York, Johannesburg, Seoul,

Ulan bator, belgrade, Dakar, bangalore, several cities in brazil and in

Southwestern europe. All these Weltstadt initiatives explore urban visions

using a participatory approach to city development. The Johannesburg

contribution focuses on Marlboro South, an informal settlement close

to South Africa’s economic hub Sandton. Architecture students and

residents collaborated on producing maps, documenting living conditions

and exploring ways of improving the future of this living environment.

the findings of this process were first exhibited at the Goethe-Institut in

Johannesburg in 2013 and are shown as part of the Weltstadt exhibition.

The exhibition ECOLOGY.DESIGN.SYNERGY (eDS) is a collaboration

between the ifa (Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen) and the AeDeS

Architecture Forum, with the overarching vision to detach the term

“sustainability” from its common quantitative representation by

highlighting the aspects of sustainability which can be experienced as

qualities in themselves. The ifa and AeDeS invited behnisch Architekten

and Transsolar Climateengineering to interpret this vision concretely

within the context of their work. The practices have been collaborating

for many years to develop solutions for a sustainable and responsible

architecture based on the belief that high-quality built environments can

be realized with a lower consumption rate of natural resources.

highlighting aspects of their projects, the exhibition represents their

efforts in assessing the qualitative aspects of sustainability, which

emerge through a sustainability-focused and integrated design process.

Curator Frank ockert, accordingly focuses on the human senses in his

exhibition design, emphasising this idea in an accessible way.

’re-trace’ 2014 is a year-long research project exploring notions of narra-

tion in relation to place and the artist’s body. Initially developed in France

during the first half of 2014, the final instalment titled ‘re-trace [part 3]’

will be realised at the GoetheonMain project space. The work proposes a

triadic relationship of performance, drawing and the moving image, and

suggests the artist’s body as a kind of projection device. The artist, Kari-

mah Ashadu, choreographs a series of movements inspired by the energy

and rhythm of the streets of Johannesburg. ‘re-trace [part 3]’ is made up

of various artistic elements including street performance, film and move-

ment drawing. The work is concerned with sentiments of relationships –

particularly notions of public and private, and the artist’s body and place.

Traversing Soweto streets, backyards in nairobi, dusty Jordanian alleys,

Peregrinate invites viewers to consider the intimate politics of home and

belonging, as well as the possibilities inherent in dislocation, or a lack of

anchoring, and the routes one takes to find a way. sub-titled ‘field notes

on time travel and space’, the exhibition examines notions of spatial

politics, the economics of time and travel, and the kinds of access granted

to travellers. The travels of three different wanderers are juxtaposed as

temporal sculptures to chronicle the personal experience of journeying

within the home, neighbourhood and country, as well as the act of

departing for distant places.

Peregrinate features the work of three photographers: South Africans

Thabiso Sekgala and Musa nxumalo, and Kenyan Mimi Cherono ng’ok.

The exhibition explores the concept of photography as a common method

of investigation, discovery and representation – an act of wandering

undertaken by the photographer as traveller and explorer.

Jointly curated by the featured photographers, this exhibition is the final

stage for the three participants as part of the Goethe-Institut portfolio

workshop, the Photographers Master Class.

Ponte City building is an iconic structure in Johannesburg’s skyline that

has long been a symbol for the city itself. opened in 1976, Ponte has come

to represent the best and the worst of Johannesburg, and has generated

a particular mythology of city life. South African photographer Mikhael

Subotzky and british artist Patrick Waterhouse combine photography,

historical archives, found objects, and interviews to create a body of work

that spans the pre-history of the building, its spectacular decline, and the

recent attempts at its transformation. The building is cast as the central

character in a tangled narrative about Johannesburg’s magnetic pull on

people from all over the continent.

In the artist’s words; “From the beginning, we have been interested in the

mythical position of Ponte in Johannesburg’s consciousness, as much as in

its history and architecture. our attempts to understand the psychology,

structure and historical narrative of the building have included taking a

Jaf

photograph from every window, of every television screen, and of every

internal door, as well as the collecting of archival material and forming

long-term relationships with its residents present and past.”

The work has culminated in the production of a book, of which the

Goethe-Institut has been a proud supporter and is pleased to be involved

in its launch at the 2014 Joburg Art Fair. The book will be launched with

an installation of some of the works at Ponte City itself and with a panel

discussion and book-signing taking place at Joburg Art Fair.

The exhibition presents fourteen projects by young architects from

Germany that have been completed abroad mainly since 2004. The

selected examples from construction, interior design, urban design and

landscape architecture show how these architects approach working in

foreign environments, how they redefine and add to existing buildings, and

how they create new ones under unusual conditions. They come up with

sensitive solutions for challenges in architecture today, always with an eye

on the future, sustainability, and new technologies.

Contrary to today’s global media interest in the spectacular and the star,

this exhibition presents innovative architectural projects that confidently

and quietly take a pragmatic approach, concentrating entirely on the

locations for which they were created.
