Offener Prozess
Ausstellung zur Aufarbeitung des NSU-Komplexes
1/October/2021–13/March 2022
The exhibition Offener Prozess disentangles the complicated backdrop that paved the way to the serial murders committed by the far-right terror group NSU between 2000 and 2006. Challenging the official and popular narrative that insists on defining the atrocities as isolated cases of ideological fanaticism, the project highlights various layers of the institutional racism that has openly or latently infused into the operation of state apparatuses and daily life. In contrast to the paralysing ascription of victimhood to the ones who lost their lives, several works in the Offener Prozess give voice to their relatives and communities, who reject to be a part of the silencing consensus imposed on them.
Artistic contributions by Harun Farocki, Pınar Öğrenci, belit sağ, Želimir Žilnik, Ulf Aminde and Forensic Architecture, among others, explore the realities of the lives of guest workers, migration stories, everyday life in Germany, right-wing terrorist violence and everyday racism.
The exhibition Offener Prozess is extended: From 16/December to 13/March/2022 it can be seen in condensed form daily and with free admission at the Gorki Kiosk.
