zeitraumexit (registered association) is an artist centre in Mannheim. The non-profit association and independent institution organizes, curates and (co-)produces exhibitions, performances, theatre, video art and installations. ==History== zeitraumexit came into being in 2000, as a result of the merger between ''Zeitraum für Büro und Kunst'' and ''EX!T Ausgangspunkt Theater''. “The quartet represents extraordinary, international art projects in the region which unite visual and performing arts ever since.” The founding members are the artists Gabriele Osswald (performance, visual arts), Wolfgang Sautermeister (performance, visual arts), Elke Schmid (director) and Tilo Schwarz (drawing, set & lighting design), as well as the members of the executive board Manfred Ziegler, Peter Empl and Gerhard Schöneberger. Apart from engaging with zeitraumexit, the artistic directors Osswald, Sautermeister, Schmid and Schwarz also work as solo artists. They are being invited to venues as far across the globe as Seoul. Elke Schmid left zeitraumexit in 2009 to further pursue her work in Berlin. From May 2000 to May 2007, the facilities of zeitraumexit were located in Mannheim’s district Neckarstadt-Ost. In 2007, zeitraumexit moved into the historical Kaufmannmühle, a former corn mill under monument protection, which is located in the Jungbusch district. In the new facilities, two ateliers, a theatre space (for 60 spectators), one exhibition hall, a bar and office spaces were installed. The yard is used as an open air stage. The association is mainly financed with private means, such as the Hector foundation and the National Performance Network. Apart from this, they are “constantly dependent on 30 to 60 volunteers’ support.” Coverage on zeitraumexit takes place via the regional news (e.g. Mannheimer Morgen, Rheinpfalz), radio broadcasting (SWR, DLF) and TV (3sat); in trans-regional newspapers and journals (Süddeutsche Zeitung, Theater der Zeit, tanz aktuell, Kunstforum international) online (ZDFtheaterkanal) and on television (ntv). In 2008, the artistic direction of zeitraumexit received the Baerwind prize from the Rudi-Baerwind foundation, as the collective “confirms quite exactly to Baerwind’s imagination of a symphony with its border-transgressing energy.” Zeitraumexit is “a meeting point for artists and people interested in art beyond established cultural institutions. The festival “Wunder der Prärie” (Wonder of the Prairie), which is organized by zeitraumexit every other year, acquired a set slot in the region’s event schedule and receives attention that surpasses the regional scale.” 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zeitraumexit」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
