Feminists stage perverse parody of Catholic procession starting in the Cathedral
I have said it before and will say it again.
The Latin Mass is banned but this nonsense is permitted!
The artist now recounts what was done.
A speech would be banal, I thought, and I wanted to get a lot of great women on board for the design
*What awaits you?
We start at Domplatz at 10 a.m., where you - coming earlier - can watch "LINGUA - Sprachlos" in the Cathedral for a moment.
The art procession will be led by Ute Liepold, the current Women's Prize winner, texts by me will be read by Magda Kropiunig, Katarina Hartmann and Sandra Pascal in special costumes.
Volunteers and walkers (yes, definitely all genders!) are welcome in the moving procession.
Watching and passively following Sarah Pletschko's drum rhythm is more than welcome.
Barbara Ambrusch – Rapp is filming and this documentation will be on display in the museum during the runtime.
With this procession, I address the issue of the insufficient visibility of women and make my art statement against the silence and exclusion of certain groups of people in the official church.
The feminist procession leads from the cathedral via Lidmanskygasse, through the inner city and ends together in the courtyard. There you can expect the performance "Miscarriage: Make a Mass!" by the music band "beneedeit" by the author and former town clerk Lydia Haider and two music colleagues.
The procession then goes to the castle chapel, which is open to the street, where I can present the specially made multi-media textile installation “monstramus – we show” to you for the first time.
At the end, everyone who took part in the art procession will receive a brooch made in my studio and "muschicraft beer" while stocks last in the MMKK foyer. Christine Wetzlinger – Grundnig, the director of the museum will ask me some tricky questions about the content.

More details about Lingua
The visual artist Ina Loitzl hung a large tongue over the altar in the church room in Klagenfurt Cathedral for Lent 2023. In this video she talks about her work "LINGUA - speechless". She is concerned with the abolition of speechlessness. People should say what's on the tip of their tongues. The cathedral visitors are therefore also invited to expand the installation with statements.
Cathedral priest Peter Allmaier goes into more detail about the symbol of the tongue in the video. Space and time also have a special language, says the cathedral priest, especially with regard to Lent- video description.
