Im Auftrag der Galerie für Zeitgenössische Kunst lud Joanna Warsza die KünstlerInnen Alexandra Pirici, Pablo Helguera und Ulf Aminde nach Leipzig ein, um drei Projekte im öffentlichen und halböffentlichen Raum auszuprobieren: Pirici inszenierte eine choreografische Intervention im Völkerschlachtdenkmal, Helguera einen improvisierten Sprechchor und Aminde die Generalprobe eines Kunststreiks.

Darin werden Personen als politisch handelnde Wesen beschrieben, die mit ihrem Agieren eine kollektive Tragweite erlangen.
