"Every artist is a human being". This statement by Martin Kippenberger, which is as true as it is existentialist (in an ironic rephrasing of the well-known Beuys quote), gets to the heart of the matter in many ways. On the one hand, it reminds us not to look away, to be (artistically) active and to raise our voices. At the same time, it is an exhortation to help those who are in need. And that is a lot of people at the moment, among them many artists. That is why it is important for art institutions to discuss not only art, but also politics.
Since 2013, the non-profit organization Artist at Risk has made it its mission to support persecuted artists and cultural producers, facilitating their safe passage from their countries of origin. They have assisted numerous persecuted and imprisoned artists. Lerchenfeld spoke to the two founders and directors Marita Muukkonen and Ivor Stodolsky

The Finkenwerder Art Prize, initiated in 1999 by the Kulturkreis Finkenwerder e.V., has undergone a realignment: As a new partner, the HFBK Hamburg is expanding the prize to include the aspect of promoting young artists and, starting in 2022, will host the exhibition of the award winners in the HFBK Gallery. This year's Finkenwerder Art Prize will be awarded to the US artist Renée Green. HFBK graduate Frieda Toranzo Jaeger receives the Finkenwerder Art Prize for recent graduates.

Im Bewusstsein einer ausstehenden fundamentalen gesellschaftlichen Transformation und der nicht unwesentlichen Schrittmacherfunktion, die einem Ort der künstlerischen Forschung und Produktion hierbei womöglich zukommt, hat sich die HFBK Hamburg auf den Weg gemacht, das Thema strategisch wie konkret pragmatisch für die Hochschule zu entwickeln. Denn wer, wenn nicht die Künstler*innen sind in ihrer täglichen Arbeit damit befasst, das Gegebene zu hinterfragen, genau hinzuschauen, neue Möglichkeiten, wie die Welt sein könnte, zu erkennen und durchzuspielen, einem anderen Wissen Gestalt zu geben
Am 19. Januar 2022 fand ein Workshop mit dem Aktionsnetzwerk Nachhaltigkeit in Kultur und Medien an der HFBK Hamburg statt als Auftakt einer Kooperation, die zur Entwicklung eines Nachhaltigkeitskonzeptes für die Hochschule führen soll. Lerchenfeld sprach mit dem Leiter des Netzwerkes Jacob Sylvester Bilabel und Dr. Friedrich von Borries, Professor für Designtheorie an der HFBK

After more than 40 years of intensive effort, a long-cherished dream is becoming reality for the HFBK Hamburg. With the newly opened studio building, the main areas of study Painting/Drawing, Sculpture and Time-Related Media will finally have the urgently needed studio space for Master's students. It simply needs space for their own ideas, for thinking, for art production, exhibitions and as a depot.

Warum ist das Atelier immer noch ein Ort, mit dem sich Künstler*innen identifizieren? Welchen Einfluss hat es auf die jeweilige künstlerische Praxis und wie sieht das ideale Atelier aus? Lerchenfeld befragte Lehrende, Absolvent*innen und Studierende
Die Ateliergemeinschaft ist ein komplexes Gefüge: sie kann bewusst gewählt oder erzwungen sein, ermuntern oder nerven. Sie kann aber auch eine grundsätzliche Bedingung für das künstleri-sche Arbeiten sein. Eine Sicht auf die Dinge, die sich in einer Vielzahl von Stimmen erweitert
Mit dem Umzug in das neue Ateliergebäude und einer neuen wissenschaftlichen Mitarbeiterin gewinnt die Galerie der HFBK an Ausstellungsfläche und an Möglichkeiten. Mehr noch, sie tritt in einen Prozess der konzeptuellen Veränderung ein.

The international conference at HFBK Hamburg on December 2-4, 2021 – jointly conceived by Nora Sternfeld and Michaela Melián –, is dedicated to the history of artistic counter-monuments and forms of protest, discusses aesthetics of memory and historical manifestations in public space, and asks about para-monuments for the present.

Who speaks? Who paints which motif? Who is shown, who is not? Questions of identity politics play an important role in art and thus also at the HFBK Hamburg. In the current issue, the university's own Lerchenfeld magazine highlights university structures as well as student initiatives that deal with diversity and identity.
Personell wie auch inhaltlich sind die Bereiche Gleichstellung und Diversität an der HFBK Hamburg in Bewegung. Lerchenfeld hat die Ansprechpartnerinnen zu einem Roundtable-Gespräch gebeten, um Bilanz zu ziehen und Ausblicke zu geben.
Das feministische Kollektiv Cake&Cash, gegründet von HFBK Student*innen, hat in den vergangenen zwei Semestern den Galerieraum der HFBK Hamburg kuratiert.

How diverse is the curriculum of the HFBK Hamburg? This was the question behind an intervention by the student group 3RD-SPACE for the HFBK lecture timetable in the summer semester of 2021. Our author not only talked to the group, but also posed this question to HFBK professors.

The HFBK Hamburg is in the lecture-free period, many students and teachers are on summer vacation, art institutions have summer break. This is a good opportunity to read and see a variety of things:
In seinem neuen Film re-inszeniert der HFBK-Filmprofessor Pepe Danquart eine Reportage-Reise durch Italien nach, die Pier Paolo Pasolini 1959 unternahm.
Der westlich geprägte Kunstdiskurs hat eine scharfe Trennung zwischen Kunst und Spiritualität eingeführt. Ein Plädoyer für mehr Differenzierung und mögliche Hybridformen.
In the last year, some new websites have joined the HFBK cosmos, while others are worth revisiting.

Since 2010, the HFBK has organised the international exchange programme Art School Alliance. It enables HFBK students to spend a semester abroad at renowned partner universities and, vice versa, invites international art students to the HFBK. At the end of their stay in Hamburg, the students exhibit their work in the Open Studios in Karolinenstraße, which are now open again to the art-interested public.

Complementing this open space for action, there is now a dedicated website that accompanies the discourses, conversations and events.
The art education department of the HFBK Hamburg has a new web platform that breaks new ground in digital publishing.

Everyone is talking about consequences: The consequences of climate change, the Corona pandemic or digitalization. Friedrich von Borries (professor of design theory), on the other hand, is dedicated to consequence-free design. In “School of No Consequences. Exercises for a New Life” at the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg, he links collection objects with a "self-learning room" set up especially for the exhibition in such a way that a new perspective on "sustainability" emerges and supposedly universally valid ideas of a "proper life" are questioned.

The formats ranged from streamed live performances to video programs, radio broadcasts, a telephone hotline, online conferences, and a web store for editions. In addition, isolated interventions could be discovered in the outdoor space of the HFBK and in the city.

Studying art - and what comes next? The clichéd images stand their ground: Those who have studied art either become taxi drivers, work in a bar or marry rich. But only very few people could really live from art – especially in times of global crises. The HFBK Hamburg wanted to know more about this and commissioned the Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences at the University of Hamburg to conduct a broad-based survey of its graduates from the last 15 years.

Social Design, as its own claim is often formulated, wants to address social grievances and ideally change them. Therefore, it sees itself as critical of society – and at the same time optimizes the existing. So what is the political dimension of Social Design – is it a motor for change or does it contribute to stabilizing and normalizing existing injustices?
