Pressure me – Art Initiative

Pressure me 11.0

The Paradox of Racism.

ART INITIATIVE
Weltclub • Königsbrücker Str. 13

20 September 2025

Start: 08:00
Vernissage: 20:00

Pressure Me is an exhibition concept where participants have a 12-hour timeframe to conceptualize and create an artwork. We believe in inclusion and interactivity; therefore, Pressure Me is an open art action. We welcome artists, old and new friends, onlookers, passers-by, and the simply curious to join in.

The live art action begins at 08:00, and exactly 12 hours later, at 20:00, the participants will present, curate, and exhibit their works at the official opening!

This edition will take on a classic theme in a very special way: “The Paradox of Racism.” Together with a workshop, this exhibition will explore how racism shapes lives—not only through personal disadvantage based on origin or skin color, but also through the systemic structures that underpin our global economy. We will look deeper into how our prosperity is paradoxically tied to suffering and human rights violations, with a particular focus on labor, access to work, and systemic discrimination. These paradoxes will serve as inspiration for the artists’ creations, giving shape to critical perspectives through art.

There will also be live music (and maybe even a performance!).
So come, enjoy the art, enjoy the music, and let yourself be carried away.
