Ptqk Blogzine: Maria Ptqk is writing her blogzine http://ptqkblogzine.blogspot.com since 2004. In the interview with Rosa Reitsamer, Maria Ptqk talks about her way into feminism, cyberfeminism and her blogging experience.

Topic: 
Activism
Art
Do-It-Yourself
Teaser Image: 

Can you shortly introduce yourself?
It's difficult because I have a heterogeneous background. Sometimes I am a producer or assistant for other people, sometimes a curator, an art critic or a teacher. I have a hybrid profile in the cultural field, so I consider myself as a cultural researcher. The topics I am interested on are situated at the crossroads between technology, media, cultural and gender studies, but it changes with my obsessions. My academic background is law and economics. I don't have any formal training in art. In this field I am completely do-it-yourself.

"Gender Art Net"

Digital Archives: 
Teaser Image: 

GenderArtNet is an experimental mapping project exploring the interrelation of gender, ethnicity, race, class and sexualities in contemporary Europe.

GenderArtNet’s primary aim is to thematically link the various existing online resources of feminist and queer artists, projects and networks rather than provide yet another user platform for artist profiles. By connecting existing, often remote, online resources, we would like to improve the accessibility and readability of these resources while keeping the memory of feminist artistic and cultural production in the broader Europe alive.

By organising this information in a map, we work to provide contexts, connections, and relations between artists, artworks and networks and between geopolitics and artistic practice. Our starting point is a relational understanding of feminism as a critical, multilayered practice that considers the interrelatedness of various forms of social, political and cultural hierarchies and exclusions along the lines of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, bodily ability, race, class and geopolitical location.
