Stuttgarter Filmwinter :: January 22-25, 2009 :: Media-Space 09 - artist talk and discussion :: January 23; 2:00 pm :: Ex-Ikea, Kronenstra_e 36, 70174 Stuttgart.

The current financial crisis certainly marks a rupture, if not an end to the most recent form of neo-liberalism. What are the effects? Can we find different ways to think and reflect about these processes, which define the affected system? How do artists react to the complexity of this self-made global crisis? These are some framing questions which the Media-Space curator-team used to choose art-works from within the field of new media. For the first time the curator team had been selected by an open Wand 5 e.V. competition.

At the End of October 2008 the Media-Space crew started the online curator blog-discussion here. As a result they now present a selected artist crew list:

- MYPOCKET, Burak Arikan
- META-MARKETS, Burak Arikan, Engin Erdogan, Cenk Dolek
