HOUSE OF THE REPUBLIC

The House and the Club of the Republic are the hub of the festival. This year, they are both placed under the roof of Funkhaus in Vienna’s fourth district near Karlsplatz. Things will be hot, in keeping with the festival theme: for example with the debate series Revolutionary Love, shamanistic performances by the Campfire and the Band of the Republic LUV. For the entire period, in-house artists SIGNA are showing their performance installation and students of the University of Applied Arts give creative design input to the House and the Club of the Republic. Workshops and a comprehensive programme for children and young people will be available. In addition, the Free Radio of the Republic will go on air in collaboration with Radio ORANGE 94.0. Doors and hearts are wide open: simply drop by and join in! Check out the entire programme here.

Programme House of the Republic



Revolutionary Love

Revolutionary Love – curated by Srećko Horvat – brings leading thinkers, artists and activists together to explore the role of love in revolutionary movements. It questions why demands that once used to be progressive are considered radical once more, and how capitalism and algorithms shape our notions of love. The goal is to recapture love as a driving force for social change.

Free Radio of the Republic

The Free Radio of the Republic is on air for five weeks. Radio ORANGE 94.0 takes over broadcasting from Funkhaus. The programme reaches from Viennese people’s wild and touching love stories and conversations with artists and representatives of initiatives, broadcasts of debates from the series Revolutionary Love to weekly updates on the Free Republic.

Workshops

Being the lively headquarters of the Free Republic of Vienna, the House of the Republic at Funkhaus is a place to think, work and live together; a place where social movements and activist artists from across the world give insights into their work and invite the audience into an exchange.
