Belvedere 1950s Love and Sexuality Public Program with Käthe Kratz and Maria Bill
The Belvedere museum in Vienna is presenting 'Abarten, Spielarten, Unarten der Liebe,' a public program that delves into themes of love, the repression of sexuality in the 1950s, marriage structures, the introduction of the birth control pill, the women's movement, AIDS, and weddings. Käthe Kratz will share excerpts from her chronicle 'Schwindelfrei' and show clips from her film 'Das 10. Jahr' (1995). Additionally, Maria Bill will perform songs by Édith Piaf and Jacques Brel, with accompaniment from Krzysztof Dobrek and Michael Hornek. This event, part of 'Free Friday Night,' is set for Blickle Kino, where attendance is free but tickets are necessary.
