16:00 – 16:30: Introduction
Where is Belarus situated, what is it remarkable for? Very basic facts about the geographical position, the political situation and the history of Belarus.
16:30 – 17:30: Infrastructure of the subcultures in Belarus
1. Dissemination of information. What possibilities exist in Belarus to circulate nonconformist or critical information? The internet killed fanzines, but are there “fanzines” in the internet?
2. Places. How do punk and hardcore concerts look in Belarus? Are there enough nightclubs and other meeting places at least in Minsk, the capital city? Is squatting possible in Belarus? How are independent (sub)cultural spaces organized in Minsk?
This part of the program will include a documentary about the squat „Majsternia“ in Minsk (2008, 26 min).
17:30-17:45: Break/Pause
17:45 – 18:45: Between escapism and politicisation: where do subcultures lead Belarusian youngsters?
Graffiti and street art in Minsk: No matter if it’s a political slogan or fine art, everything is painted over within weeks, if not hours. What methods can street artists use for their works to stay longer, and be visible at the same time?
Belarusian antifascist movement: A dangerous sport for rude macho guys or basic necessity of selfdefense?
LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual) youth in Minsk: Between subcultural ghetto and a civil rights movement.
Food Not Bombs: The Belarusian branch of a global movement is almost facing the ban to feed the homeless. Food Not Bombs in Belarus consists only of people under 30 (mainly about 20 years old), and it may be described as a combination of youth subculture and activist scene.
This part of the program will include short movies about street art and the LGBT movement (about 10 min altogether).
18:45 – 19:30: Questions and discussion
